Mirage as the name hints, is something a group of friends was moving towards unknowingly. A point of unseen possibilities and unlikely love.
Anvay, Darsh, Seher and Tapasya are four friends who are very different from one another but always have each other's backs. Their backgrounds are different and they all have their struggles to deal with.
Whilst all four of them are loyal and trustworthy, they have secrets they carry deep within and despite being best friends, they could not share those secrets.
The story revolves around them, their love lives, their goals. Their future somehow intertwines at one point and everything changes. For good or bad ? No one knows! Either it could break their friendship or make it an unbreakable bond. Their story is unique and perfectly woven. There are more characters in the story which come in the latter part but rules the entire plot. 😉 You will be inclined to like those characters.
Will these friends stay together at the end or do they part ways? Will their lives be as simple as it is in the beginning or will it take a drastic dig? You have to read it to know all these curious answers.
Ruchi has yet again masterfully weaved a story that is a lot more than just a simple romance. It has a good mix of thriller and suspense and unimaginable twists and turns. It is a fast-paced and riveting tale of love, losses, secrets and a lot more, promises the reader an absolute dose of entertainment.
A Romantic suspense that you shouldn't miss. Just pick this one with a bowl of popcorn or a mug of coffee to maximize enjoyment. Truly a work of art by Ruchi! ❤️🔥

It's been a while since I read a romantic story and finished Mirage in one sitting. Ruchi Chandra's writing keeps you engaged in this tale of four friends: Seher, Darsh, Anvay, and Tapasya. Written in simple yet crisp language, the story is sprinkled with tension, emotions, romance, and suspense, making it a wholesome read.
Ruchi has built up her brand as a romance author, and it shows—she knows exactly what her readers look for in her stories. Go for it if you enjoy an urban friendship story with a touch of romance.
