Wow what a story,a real page Turner,had to finish the book in one day.Loved the various different characters in the book and how they are portrayed.
Fell in love with the character's,and the scene of India under British rule,with all its prejudices, portrayed in a new light,but don't take my word for it,go and buy it and read it yourselves.

A perfect summer read, an engrossing story and romance that will make you root for the lovers.
I loved the style of writing, the descriptions of India, and the cast of characters.
It's the first book I read by this author and it won't surely be the last.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine

A lovely historical romance set during the British rule of India. Sarah certainly didn't expect to fall for Ravi, especially since she's married to Charles and well, that sort of thing just isn't and wasn't done. THere's good atmospherics, a secret, and nice characters who you will both root for and boo at. While you might, like me, guess what's going to happen, that won't matter much because Coverdale has done a very good job telling the story. Thanks to Netgalley for the arc. A nice summer read!

The exotic setting is India during British rule. Sarah, proper wife of a bullying English officer, falls headlong for powerful Ravi Sabran in a very improper romance. You can smell the jasmine in the gardens of the Maharajah’s palace, hear the hearts of the lovers beat, feel the intense heat of the baking sun as you immerse fully into the story as sumptuous as that radiant cover. 5/5

There’s something about the British Raj that captivates me, and I know I’m not alone. In this story, young Sara Archer is fairly confident her life in India as the wife of a British official will be safe and simple.She never expects to fall in love with someone else, a person entirely unsuitable to her as both a married woman and an English one at that. With her “perfect” husband revealing himself to be anything but, Sara finds herself drawn into the embrace of Ravi Sabran, as she risks everything for love. I wanted to wallow in this book, with its descriptions of the beauty and brutality of India. Find a spot in the sun, open this book and be transported through time and space. But you may not want to come back!
