When the author announced that she was planning a romance for Govind (who had been introduced in the first book in this trilogy, and had also grabbed his space in the second), I was amazed. But Rubina Ramesh has done perfect justice to Govind's romance with NRI Kiara. Enjoyed every scene. A must read if you like reading the romance genre.

In this captivating story, we are introduced to Kiara Dutta, a young woman grappling with unresolved feelings of abandonment due to her father's disappearance when she was just five. Raised in the Netherlands, Kiara’s world is turned upside down when she learns of her mother’s upcoming remarriage. Determined to confront her past and protect her family’s future, she embarks on a journey to India in search of closure. But things take an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Govind Singh, a self-made entrepreneur who is determined to carve his own path, away from his family’s traditional farming business.
Despite their contrasting backgrounds — Kiara’s sophisticated upbringing in Europe and Govind’s modest life in the small town of Toosa — their encounter sparks an undeniable chemistry. Govind, who lacks formal education but possesses a sharp entrepreneurial spirit, is initially focused on his responsibility of getting Kiara to her destination. However, their shared journey becomes a tapestry of amusing misunderstandings, cultural clashes and moments of genuine connection.
As Kiara seeks answers to her past and Govind yearns for independence, their evolving relationship challenges them both. The narrative beautifully captures their struggles and the growing attraction that, against all odds, blossoms between them. Their story highlights that love doesn’t just bridge gaps between people; it can also illuminate paths to healing and self-discovery.
The author skillfully weaves a tale that balances humor and heartache, showing how love can thrive even amidst the complexities of life.
Can Kiara and Govind overcome the barriers between them and break the cycle of their parents’ mistakes?
This heartwarming story explores love’s unpredictable nature, where laughter and tears are inseparable companions and finding oneself is the first step to finding love.

'The Impossible Affair' by Rubina Ramesh is the story of Kiara Dutta, an MBA graduate, residing in Netherlands, and Govind Singh, a successful entrepreneur. Govind isn't highly educated, but managed to become a successful transport business owner, at the small town of Toosa. Kiara on the other hand was raised by her mother and sought closure to her dad's disappearance, when she was just a child.
Kiara decides to confront her dad and embarks on her journey to Toosa, India. As fate wanted Govind and Kiara to meet, they met unexpectedly and their chemistry blossomed throughout the story. They were quite the opposites, but were attracted to each other no matter what!
As the story progresses, many unrevealed secrets of the past come forth to the readers. My favourite part of the story is when Kiara gets to find out the truth of her father's disappearance from her life. Kiara was surprised to know about the truth about Rakesh (her father) and Avantika (her mother). Kiara always believed it was her father's fault that she was raised by her mother alone, but what she heard from the Singh family, left her dumbfound and speechless.
The book presents the themes of love, grief, heartache, and humor. All the characters are well developed and their uniqueness adds a layer of intensity to the story, which made me stick to the story. The book is full of romantic scenes and family dramas with a hint of humour. Kiara and Govind's relationship was fun and lovely. Their personal struggles made the book more interesting. The author's writing style is quite fast paced and the language used is lucid and easy. Kiara and Govind's love story was a heartwarming presentation of 'Opposites Attracts.'

The Impossible Affair: The Mismatched Couple Book 3 by Rubina Ramesh is a beautiful romantic comedy. It tells the story of Govind Singh, an entrepreneur from the village of Toosa and Kiara Dutta, an MBA Graduate from the Netherlands.
Both of them have their agendas in mind, a life plan to follow through. Govind has to prove to his family that he can be more than his family legacy of farmers. He can succeed in his transport business too.
And Kiara has come to India to find answers to her questions. Why did her father never turn back and look for her?
Both of them collide and then start a story with romance and comedy and a lot more in between.
The story is medium-paced and is very interesting to read. The chapters are short and entertaining. The story is told from both the main characters' sides so it helps in getting an insight into their feelings and lives.
The way the situations and feelings are described is a treat to read. Some scenarios are descriptive and funny. They also give an insight into a typical Indian household which adds flavour to the book.
I particularly liked the character of Govind. Kiara is seen to be a little bit bubbly at times and yet sometimes she is too sorry for herself. These contradicting personalities did not sit well with me.
I liked the part when Taiji takes the side of Govind and a fun camaraderie is seen between them. Also, how she treats him like his own and the way Tayaji has love hidden behind his hard demeanor, is interesting to read. Also, how certain aspects like respect for elders, strict parenting, and an urge to prove oneself are shown in the book, is nice to read.
The cover of the book is really beautiful and the title is apt. The way the story revolves around Govind, who is shown in the previous parts too, is really fun to read.

Readers are welcomed into a fascinating universe where comedy and passion coexist together in "The Impossible Affair" by the Author Rubina Ramesh . Raised by her mother in the Netherlands, Kiara sets off for Toosa, India, hoping to reconcile with her father Rakesh who is not there and possibly put her family back together. As she meets Govind Singh, a lively transport businessman with a love of teasing, she has no idea that her life is about to take an unexpected turn.
I enjoyed the scene in which Taiji supports Govind and they form a friendly bond. It's also intriguing to read about how she respects him, and how Tayaji has affection concealed beneath his tough exterior. Also, the book's depiction of some themes such as respect for elders, rigorous parenting, and the desire to prove oneself is enjoyable to read, as is the third chapter, in which Kiara first meets Govind in Chandigarh.
The humorous egoistic back-to-back discussions, declarations, and mind voices all contribute to an intriguing reality. Their quest begins there. I enjoyed their chats as they competed in the subsequent chapters.
Fans of contemporary romance will find the book to be engrossing and thought-provoking, even though the main protagonists and their interpersonal dynamics may need some work after finishing this one.
Rubina Ramesh's writing is reassuring and well-known, yet it has certain predictable twists and turns, like a loving embrace on a chilly night. I can't wait to see where life takes Kiara and Govind in the upcoming chapter of their journey.

Rubina Ramesh's charming romantic comedy "The Impossible Affair" transports readers on an emotional journey full of drama, humor, and touching moments. The relationship between the two main characters, Govind and Kiara, was my favorite aspect of the book, even though the whole thing is enjoyable to read.
There is an obvious energy between them that jumps off the pages as their encounters light up with humor and charm. It's hard not to cheer for them because of the tension and fun that permeate every scene they share, from their furious disagreements to their lighthearted banter.
I like the scene where Govind drops her off at Rakesh's house and, just by happenstance, his mother thinks Kiara is her daughter-in-law. Kiara takes pleasure in the hospitality as well as the sweet and spicy tit-tat between mother and son. Even though she is aware of the timing, she didn't miss the sassy conversation.
The author skillfully combines humor and intense feelings that many Indians who travel abroad solely to make money before returning home can relate to. It is commendable how the characters' foundations and beliefs are portrayed in order for them to absorb the changes. However, I didn't appreciate how casually narcotics were used, either in the Netherlands or in India, where they are grown covertly.
Overall, a romantic comedy with a heartfelt ending. It is worth the read, do grab it.

"The Impossible Affair (The Mismatched Couple - Book 3)" by Rubina Ramesh continues the journey of Kiara Dutta and Govind Singh, delving deeper into their tumultuous relationship against a backdrop of societal expectations and personal struggles.
Kiara Dutta and Govind Singh are complex protagonists who grapple with their own demons while navigating the complexities of their relationship. Ramesh skillfully portrays their inner conflicts and vulnerabilities, making them relatable and multi-dimensional characters. However, one critical aspect of their portrayal is the lack of consistent character development. While Kiara and Govind show glimpses of growth and self-awareness, their progression feels somewhat stagnant at times. I was yearning for more profound transformations, Especially regarding familial matters.
The dynamics of Kiara and Govind's relationship are both captivating and frustrating. Ramesh expertly captures the push and pull between them as they struggle to reconcile their differences and overcome external obstacles. However, there are moments when their interactions feel forced or melodramatic, detracting from the authenticity of their bond. Additionally, resolving their conflicts felt a tad rushed or convenient, leaving me craving a more nuanced exploration of their relationship dynamics. What balanced it out was the humorous elements that the author had incorporated into their banter and actions.
Despite these minor criticisms, "The Impossible Affair" is a compelling instalment in the Mismatched Couple series, showcasing Ramesh's talent for crafting intricate narratives filled with passion and intrigue. I specifically loved the revelation that Biji and Kiara bring in at about 70% of the book. Nothing more, or we will be walking into spoiler territory. I also loved how Govind craved tea to watch the "drama". And biscuits in a Horlicks jar?! So desi! The whole story reads like a Bollywood script. I was reminded of the film Son of Sardar, except it was the daughter of Sardar here. Insert snickering here 😅.
While the main protagonists and their relationship dynamics may have room for improvement, the novel as a whole offers an engaging and thought-provoking read that will resonate with fans of contemporary romance. I say thought-provoking because, in this book, the readers can see how old-fashioned thinking can tear apart families. While I have not read the previous instalments in the series, after reading this part, I would certainly love to read them.
Rubina Ramesh's prose is like a warm embrace on a cold night, comforting and familiar yet filled with expected twists and turns. I eagerly await the next chapter in Kiara and Govind's journey, eager to see where life takes them next.

Govind, despite lacking higher education, has carved out a successful transport business in the small town of Toosa.
In Toosa, almost everyone knows Govind. She trusts Govind in due course after having some amusements. Though their meetings are filled with some bewildering chattering, their romantic mood can be felt easily. They remain reluctant to say poignantly anything but Kiara remains focused on her mission.
The story portrays the unpredictable nature of love and the challenges of bridging cultural divides.
The writing style is like a warm embrace, connecting with the readers into the story with engaging characters and situations. She effortlessly blends humour with serious situations, creating an engaging narrative. The author's subtle use of dialogue and descriptive languages makes the characters and their world very soothing, taking the readers along their journey.

I adore the narrative of "The Impossible Affair" highlighting the themes of love, identity, and cultural differences, offering insights into the uncertainty of human relationships. The author's storytelling is full with allegorical and symbolic elements, making the narrative and characters intriguing for readers.
I felt a range of emotions while taking the “ride" in Govind’s car along with Kiara. Their laughter to heartache to warmth, each moment is worth enjoying.
The book along with its local experiences for a foreign resident like Kiara is praiseworthy. The humour and the beating of their hearts are the main attraction to read the book with heartfelt joys.
Like her previous charming narratives in the prequels, the author attached the tone of a delightful and engaging romance to this book.

"The Impossible Affair" offers a vibrant narrative that explores the intersection of love, culture and self-discovery.
Kiara Dutta, a Netherlands-born MBA graduate, has always struggled with the shadow of her father’s mysterious disappearance. When her mother’s unexpected remarriage pushes her to confront the ghosts of her past, Kiara embarks on a journey to India — a trip that becomes much more than a quest for closure.
Enter Govind Singh, a self-made transport entrepreneur in the quaint town of Toosa. Lacking formal education but brimming with ambition, Govind defies his family’s traditional expectations to carve out his own path. When he meets Kiara at the airport, he’s simply tasked with escorting her safely to her destination. But what starts as a routine journey quickly transforms into a whirlwind adventure that neither of them anticipated.
Their chemistry is undeniable, though their differences are stark. Kiara’s polished upbringing and emotional fragility contrast sharply with Govind’s rugged independence and straightforward outlook on life. Yet, amid the cultural misunderstandings and personal dilemmas, they find themselves drawn to each other in ways that defy logic and circumstance.
The story navigates the complexities of love between two people from drastically different worlds. It’s not just about Kiara finding answers to her past or Govind proving himself beyond his humble beginnings, it’s about two souls connecting despite the odds. As they grapple with their burgeoning feelings and the external pressures of family and tradition, the question remains — can they overcome their differences and find a way forward together?
Filled with humor, tender moments and the occasional clash of ideals, "The Impossible Affair" is a charming, insightful read that will leave you rooting for love’s power to transcend all barriers.

When It's about love, caste, education, class, and culture doesn't matter. This book has proven to be the perfect testament of Unbiased love between two different people who are opposite of each other.
Love doesn't knock at your door, It just happens when you are not even ready to accept it.
Kiara Dutta wants revenge on her father who left her when she needed him the most. Though her mother is strong and independent enough to raise her as a strong lady but lack of her father's love has made her adamant and mad.
Govind entered her life as a storm that changed her perception of life, love and family. Govind has established a successful transport business without higher education. Love is unpredictable so Kiara and Govind's story also. While reading this I am imagining a South Indian movie where an NRI girl is falling in love with a sweet simple village boy. I enjoyed it. It's like a blend of laughter, mishaps, clashes of thoughts but a journey filled with emotions of anger, betrayal and dream.
I like how the character of Govid is portrayed, who is known to be a charming local complete antithesis of Kiara. But Love attracts both into a phase where they can't control their emotions.
If you want something light to read but full of humour and drama then this is a perfect option to read now.
The Impossible Affair is the 3rd book of the series The Mismatched Couple. It can be read as a standalone so go for it.

The narrative pulses with energy and humor, with each character adding their own unique flavor to the mix. From the ever-present Biji, Kiara's grandmother, to the authoritative Tyaji and Manpreet, the ensemble cast brings depth and richness to the story. While the pacing may occasionally feel brisk, the novel's focus on witty dialogue and character-driven moments keeps readers engaged from start to finish. One of my favorite things about this novel is Govind's cheerful disposition, yet his unwavering will to forge his own path. Another feature is that everyone in his village is concerned about and aware of what is happening within their own village, and they are not only living with their own family but consider the village as one big family
Through tears, laughter, and lots of sarcasm, Kiara and Govind's journey in "The Impossible Affair" is a feel-good, standard rom-com that is suitable for easy reading. Furthermore, I cherished how diametrically opposed the characters were, and the writers validated the adage 'Opposites do attract.'

A feel-good romcom suitable for easy reading.
My rating: 3.8/5
Kiara Dutta has always felt abandoned by her father, who walked out on her and his marriage to Kiara's mother when she was only 5-years-old. When Kiara's mother decides to get remarried after two decades, Kiara has had enough of her absentee father and decides to travel from the Netherlands, and confront her father by visiting him in Toosa, a small village in rural India. What she didn't anticipate was getting attracted to someone in the process, especially not to Govind Singh, the local Romeo, and the complete antithesis of Kiara.
