Rate this book
Love strikes when we least expect it. Is it true?  

In the case of Radhika, maybe it did.  She’s all ready for a fresh start in a new city.  She starts living with her cousin, Meera and a series of unexpected events starts to unfold which turns her life upside-down. She meets someone new, Rishi. He's very different from what she likes, yet intriguing. When everything is going smooth, a lover from the past, Sameer, suddenly re-appears.  Now, she’s torn between the past and the present. Adding to this craziness, appear two funny characters Zain and Nancy. They are cousins and work in the same office with Radhika. Also, in the picture is Radhika’s aunt, a single lady in her fifties; who’s way too much interested in Radhika’s love life. While Nancy wants Radhika to date Sameer, her aunt wants her to pair up with Rishi. All entangled, no way out. Now, with both the males trying hard to get her, her life becomes more troubled.

Am I The Only One Or Have Other Avid Readers & Book Reviewers Come Across The Most Irritating Issue Of Kindle Books Of Quite A Few Authors Being Substandard Or Even Of Low Quality In Terms Of Editing & Proofreading Compared To The Paperback Or Hardcover Edition? As For Me, It Has Happened Once Too Often Especially When A Kindle Edition Happens To Be Up And Available With Some Free Offer...While A Beta Reader Facing Such An Issue Or An Author Offering a Review Copy On pdf is One Thing But It Being Up For Sale Is Quite Another.
Coming To ‘Can’t Help Falling In Love :Book One, A Much Needed Advice In Advance, If You Really Want To Enjoy This Refreshing Double Love Triangle Without Any Interruptions Or Breaks At The Most Crucial Of Times When The Suspense Is Peaking Then It’s Best To Have Both Books Within Range To Read Back To Back To Enjoy Them In Totality Without The Irritation Of Having To Wait Till The Concluding Part Arrived.
It Has Never Been Quite Clear To Me That When A Book Is Penned By Two Independent Authors In Any Kind Of Collaboration How Is It Put Into Perfect Synchronisation..Which Author Does What In The Scheme Of Things?
Take This Very Book For Instance, In One Edition This Book Is Credited To PRACHI GUPTA & In An Another Edition SANCHIT GARG Is The Co-Author Of This Title..So It Still Remains Hazy Whether Book One Is Authored By PRACHI & Book Two By SANCHIT Or Vice-Versa?
That Having Been Said, There Is No Denying That This Is Indeed A Touching Love Story That One Can Easily Relate With..
The Characters Be They Meera, Rishi, Radhika, Sameer Or Nancy And Dhruv They Have An Instant Connect With The Readers As They Neither Slotted In Black Or White But Are In Several Shades Of Grey And That’s What Makes Them Not Just Relatable But Also Makes Their Motives More Humane Even When They Play Musical Chairs Behind Each Others Back.

I have fallen in love with the characters…!!
No words to describe… It is one of those stories for which you need not to struggle to understand what’s going on, everything move in front of your eyes. Each word describes the beauty of love.

Talking about the Authors, they have done a wonderful job. Their narrating style and usage of simple words in an attractive way is something that every reader would love to read.

If there's one writer who have always impressed me with his/her writing each time he/she had released his/her work- It's Prachi Gupta. Not even once did I rate any of her book below 4 stars. This time, it took me long enough to read her latest book because of busy schedule. But I finished reading "Can't help falling in love" few hours ago and since then I am only thinking about its characters and emotional journey through which the book took me. I had plans of sleeping around 12 AM last night but her book made me wake till 4.30 AM. That's the power of Prachi's writing and her stories. You just keep getting deep into it and find yourself in a meditative state after a point of time where you are concentrating only on the words written by the writer. With every breathe, you feel the emotion and feelings of protagonist and every other character attached with him/her. She's a new writer but definately a strong one in the market. with her easy flow of language she brings out magic in her stories. if u are looking for a meaningful read, i will recommend it to you.


I give this book 4.5*. I want to give it 4.5* . This book is a soul in itself. And if you haven't read Prachi Gupta's still, you will rate this book no less than 4.75*. Just do read this book.

Thanks.

I got this book a couple of days ago to my hands ! Prachi is always my favorite author. I would suggest her books if my friends asks me to recommend a book .. :)
Can't help falling in love - I should say the book exceeded my expectations.

Plot
The Story is about Radhika, a software professional who start living in a new city and suddenly her life turns upside - down. she meets few bunch of crazy people and everything tangles up. a love triangle, hurt, love , pain and dreams. it has everything.

Things I loved
1.The female leads(as every book of her's has) - Importance for their characters are given perfectly.
2.the Co-relating portrayal of characters , which one can relate to their own lives .
3.The way she uses comedy with the plot :')
4.The Bond with all the characters was brilliantly potrayed.
5.The story glued me up.

My heart beat started to race up towards the climax. I bet you , u'll end up with tears when you close this book .

Prachi Gupta is undeniably the best writer in this genre ! the way she talks about love & relationship is darn excellent.

A good story is important but a great writer is the one who does wonders with the story. This goes the same with this book.
Firstly, the book's cover and title is enough to appeal anyone. Cover is unarguably impressive but the title is rock-solid.
Secondly, the story of the novel seems like I'm experiencing any film on screen. I really wish to see a movie on this novel. Amazingly written.
Thirdly, the author has written the novel in also a deep sense. The meaning is deep and something to learn about but the message is smartly conveyed as not to take the entertainment quotient or interest away.
Fourthly, the characterization, the story, the ups and downs, and a lot more in the book that takes you to a sky of love.
And the last, to the author, please write more and more books!!!

Came to this book after i spotted the first book in the book store. the title was 'right from the start...she stole his heart.'
it was a great read. funny characters and all so cute scenes.
fell in love with the book. Should promote new writers like them.
when you look for a good story minor proofing errors don't matter. what matters is the essence of the story and this book captured my soul.
so emotional yet full of love and friendship. the comic part was awesome.
best of luck for the writers. will read all from them now.
in my favourite list... <3<3<3

First of all thanks to the author for providing me with a copy in return of a honest review. This story is about Radhika and Rishi who is Radhika's cousin Meera's boyfriend. This story is a very small and a cute little love story. Loved reading the book. Language used by the author is very simple rather it was like very child like English language. All the sentence are too detailed which is not required for example if someone is hugging you you cannot remove from them. And author has used this type of language. While reading I also felt that there were many missing links like such a strong character of Radhika does not able to show her emotions rather author is not able to convey the message through Radhika. Overall I would say it was a ok Goodread... 😊

This one is the second book I have read from the same author. Her first book,'right from the start...she stole his heart' was based on a really different concept. So, I picked up this book thinking that it will also deal with some different theme or concept. I was glad that i picked this book. It won my heart. Sameer was my crush but now Rishi is. such an amazing stpry and plot. it made me laugh, cry and love. so much in a single book. to be honest the authors comic timing is superb duper hit. keep writing folks. you won my heart all over again... ;)

Love is in the air

First of all a huge thanks to the author for sharing her beautiful work with me.( Also thank you so much for not sending ninja assassins for delaying my feedback on the book )

What better time than now to pick this book especially when valentine is around the corner and cupid is busy in his diaper pants pointing arrow at unsuspecting souls. Anyways the book is perfect for the season and the romantic mood brought on by february. Having sad that it essentially doesn't mean that i am implying its just good for valentine season only. No absolutely not. Its perfect for all romantic hearts who loves to indulge in harmless and cute romance now and then

One of the things that i loved about the book is that it doesn't get wrapped around so much internal monologues and incidents that the core plot gets left behind. The book starts and remains steady in its path enough to keep you unwavering and enjoy without any added elements to ruin the fun

The book keeps the plot line absolutely linear, simple and easy to absorb. It has one purpose and it achieves that effectively and beautifully. To evoke romance and indulge the romantic portions of your brain without any hindrance

The flow of the book, language and the story plot are quick, simple and easy to dive into which makes it a perfect yet non-emotionally draining read. Perfect for the romance season

Destiny has been approached differently over a period of time by various school of thoughts. For some,

'You don't find love, it finds you. It's got a little bit to do with destiny, fate and what's written in the stars.'

And for others

'Destiny is not a matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.'

Well whatever your take on destiny and love might be, the way this subject is served in the latest novel by Prachi, it is full of twists and turns, which are at times expected and yes there are moments when they completely take you by surprise.

When I read my first Prachi book, ‘Accidedntally Cupid’, I immediately fell for the compelling story telling which keeps you hooked on to the book till you finish the last page. And once again the author has achieved creating the similar magic with her latest book, ‘Can't help falling in love’.

I can just imagine a Bollywood flick releasing soon on the lines of this book, any guesses for who plays the lead here?
The book is easy to read, keeps you interested and you want to know more. The main protagonists Radhika and Rishi start off as strangers who meet in BANGALORE and slowly become good friends. I like the way the author deals with their relationship which meta morphs from friendship to love.
I loved the candid and special bond Radhika shares with Nancy. her aunty was damn funny. Never have i read such perfect comic timing in any book. splendid job.

Its an engaging read. you just don't want to put it down. As I said , its a Bollywood flick just that you read it and may end up watching it on celluloid one day.

An absolutely marvelous read… :)
Like always Prachi mam has told an amazing tale of love in her own unique style… a master piece.
All the characters are endearing and the book had me hooked right from page one.
And to all those who are reading it….Keep going.. you get to read such good books once in a while. Full of good thoughts and so close to reality that I can relate to most of the characters and events. Some were of my friends and some seemed like glimpses from my own life.
And those who have not yet purchased it, go Grab one… It is worth your time and money. And as always it comes with a lesson you need to learn and can adopt to enrich your life. Read it to know…
I got a signed copy. The One that I am going to cherish..
Thank You Prachi mam for a delightful read.

While going through my friends library, I noticed this book by Prachi Gupta.
Intrigued by the title, I decided to give it a read. it was my first read by her.
I kept an open mind about her writing style and the entire story.

This book revolves around the protagonist - Radhika, whose life is full of drama and twists. her friends, NANCY, ZEE, RISHI AND SAMEER. All very different and fun. Also in the mix is her cousin Meera and an overly desperate aunty. won't spoil the fun, u better read it.
trust me u will not regret.
i loved how the story unfolds.
it was beautifully written and i could literally feel it.
the best story i have read so far. it should be an international bestseller.

Can't help falling in love by Prachi Gupta and Sanchit Garg is a love story with full of love , romance , emotions , pain drama and suspense . It's a perfect blend of all these things . Language of story is lucid and it's easy to read and understand for the readers. Excellent plot with tinge of humor in it. Storytelling and all the characters of this story keep you glued with it. Each page turning increases curiosity to read . Though it's of 224 pages but story is so interesting that you can end it in single sitting. Story contains double love triangle without any interruption or breaks in it. I would recommend this book if anyone interested in romance fun and drama.

With a very attractive cover this book starts with Radhika and Rishi. Later , Sameer comes in. A Romance Book which has more to it than just love. It has a very gripping story that wouldn't bore the reader at any point. Plus the book has been given a steady start that keeps the reader engrossed and the suspense of "Who is she going to choose" builds up its way throughout the story. Who is she going to choose.
