Elementals of India #2

by Sudha Kuruganti

She agreed to a wedding. She never expected to fall for the planner.
Riya has finally got the chance to be the good daughter to her long-suffering mother, and so she's agreed to an arranged marriage to keep the peace in her family. However, with every passing day, she starts to wonder if she’s sacrificing her own happiness for the sake of tradition.

Enter a rakshasa (demon) who has always prioritized duty and honor. Jai is desperate to save his wedding planning business and views Riya's high-profile American wedding as his ticket to the big time. He has always buried his own desires—until he meets Riya.

When sabotage threatens to derail Riya’s wedding, Jai steps in to save the day—and finds himself falling for the bride who doesn’t want to be one. Jai finally sees a chance to follow his heart instead of just his duty, showing Riya what love is supposed to feel like.

Flare is a clean, multicultural paranormal romance inspired by Indian mythology, with sizzling tension, laugh-out-loud banter, and a bad boy who finally lets himself love.

I have read all of Sudha's books and have really enjoyed them especially the Mythology of India mixed with a love story, but i was a little baffled by the ending which left us up in the air, i would have preferred a definite ending as this series are stand alone.

This is book 2 of the series and I enjoyed and recommend. I enjoy the story and I am looking forward to the next book in the series. Though some of the characters are in each book, they can be read as standalones.

Very short and left me hanging!

These are supposed to be stand alone stories, but it stopped with no ending. What little there was of it, was very good.
