Together We Were (W)hole by Namrata Gupta is a thrilling tale of love, deceit, and revenge that follows a strong-headed girl, Sanaya, and her lover, Siddharth. Their story takes us through the breeze of love and the grief of heartbreak. It further directs us to uncover some mysteries as Sanaya is well on her way to avenge Siddharth for his wrongdoings.
The story is primarily set around Sanaya and Siddharth with some room provided for the side characters. It is a fast-paced story where the girl falls in love with her man and finds it crippling at a later point of time. Things get nasty as she's unable to keep up with her lover's expectations (or maybe, ambitions) and burns in the hellfire. However, she's set to come back to take what's her and fight for it until she heaves a sigh of relief. But the truth is stranger than her reality and that would change everything.
I enjoyed spending my time with this quick read that hooked me right away. The writing is smooth and the wordplay turned out to be really good. The author did a good job with her characters that had their own strengths and vulnerabilities. None of them was perfect and so, they turned out to be more real. However, the second half of the story left me a tad bit disappointed. The first half had set a bat for me and I was hoping for a spectacular plot twist. Alas! I didn't get one. The plot treatment was okay and made up for a fair enough good read. In fact, the book would probably make an engrossing movie. As for a debut book, the overall presentation was noteworthy.
Although a few instances in the book seemed inadequate, I liked that the story remained to the point. It is not a thriller exactly. It's more like a contemporary romance fiction that has a few challenges leading to a happily ever after. Together We Were (W)hole is a beginner-friendly book and one would easily finish it in no time.

Together We were Whole by Namrata Gupta was an absolute and very precise representation of ‘Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.’
The book revolves around the revenge of a woman who thinks she has been betrayed by her love. She has to undergo a huge tragedy, however she didn't let this incident pull her down. Rather, she learnt her lesson and instead of wallowing in pity and misery, she planned her life in a way that empowered her and made herself so capable that she would never ever have to feel helpless again.
Saying anything more about the story would definitely result in spoilers, so I've tried and kept the crucial details to minimum.
Call me a feminist, but I do like to read books about women who are strong and would not bow to anyone, nor take any crap from others.
So, it was a total no brainer for me to love the Main Character, Sanaya. She was so very strong. At first, she might come across as naive to some, but I would chalk that to her age. However, the comeback that she made after that horrible plot twist was definitely noteworthy.
Hate is too strong of a word, but I didn't like Siddharth, the male MC. I tried to make myself like him, but he just didn't click with me. He was weak and didn't take necessary stands where needed.
All in all, this book was a success and it did manage to keep me engrossed throughout. There wasn't any point of time when I felt the need to skim through the story. There is a Happily Ever After for our couple, however I was a bit confused. I never really understood what exactly happened with the bad guys and how they managed to get away with some of the things that they did.
Nonetheless, it was a very captivating read that I would recommend to everyone. I'm going to give this book FIVE WHOLE STARS⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The story is about a young and jocular soul, Sanaya who joins a consultancy firm as a fresher, and during those long work hours, she falls in love with his senior, Siddhartha. Everything was so smooth between them but then how can love stories can so simple?
.
Mr. Kashyap comes into the light, who initiated a project with Sidhartha.
And something wrong happened with Siddhartha's behavior and he had to live apart from Sanaya.
But what happened between them? Why did Siddhartha change?
Who is Misha and why Sidharth marry her?
.
So many unanswered questions...so many twists and turns...
But I'm not spoiling things here. Go and grab your copies. This is an amazing read, with wonderful characters especially Sanaya, and the language is also beginner-friendly.
And I am in love with the name of the book, it just goes so perfectly for the story. I picked this book just by reading the title and I am happy with my decision.

It's a story of Sanaya and Siddharth who were madly in love. What made them part their ways? Will they be one? Where will life take them? There were many questions.
The story starts with Sanaya, a strong women on fire to Destroy Misharth Group of companies. What made her do so. I liked how the story started making the readers curious. The first few chapters are really interesting. It's a slow-paced story with many unnecessary details shared by the author which makes it a bit tedious.
The plot of the story is simple with a few twists. The intriguing narration with a smooth flow of words makes this book interesting. The easy language and the lucid writing style of the author make this book a good read. I liked how each chapter had a surprise for the readers. The fire between Siddharth and Sanaya is something I oved the most. I liked the second half of the story more.
The well-developed characters and the drama added by the author keeps the reader invested in. I liked Sanaya's Character the most. The fearless, confident Girl. I liked the way the story was moving making the readers curious. The abrupt climax of the book surprised me.
Overall, It's a good book. A light and quick read.

FAB - BOOK REVIEW OF ''Together We Were (W)Hole" by Namrata Gupta
Genre - Fiction(Romance)
Rating - 5/5
QOTD: You guys still read the romance genre or keep them away as they are cliche?
Okay, my hobby of praising the book's cover page hasn't gone yet, and this book has such a fantastic cover page. I mean, there is some vibe to it, isn't it? The title is also different from the others, which is intriguing. When I started reading this book, I researched the author's other works, knowing that this is her sixth book, if I am not wrong! So I was shocked that why I haven't read any of her books before?
.
The book's protagonist is Sanaya Sharma, a charming girl who worked as an assistant of a firm where she met her senior named Sid.
Whereas Sid is her senior, but they both are good friends. They later started loving each other and decided to get married. Then something happened. That made the birth of this book. Suppose that part is not included in the book. In that case, this book will definitely be another dull and cliche romantic book that I am not quite interested in reading.
.
Then we'll introduce this character Misha, the daughter of Mr. Kshyap, a business tycoon. This Mr.Kshyap has given Sid a proposal to provide partnership in his business to Sid as his daughter Misha loves Sid.
What will happen now? Will Sid will accept the proposal for money or just follow his heart by marrying the love of his life Sanaya.
To know that you should read the book and this is a very gripping and intense book. This book is for everyone who is starting into a reading thriller or Romance genre. The language is lucid. The story and plot are intense, making the reader keep hooked to the text from the start to the end.

This is the story of Sanaya , who is on a mission to take revenge from Siddharth . He once destroyed her life years ago. Read to know more . The story is narrated from Sanaya’s point of view. The whole story is at a normal pace. This novel can be called as a combination of love story and suspense with good detailing.
I would say that the story plot was normal but the narration style was good. The one liners or words of wisdom at places were really beautiful. There was sarcasm , humor, drama, romance besides suspense.
“But sometimes it is not over when it’s over, like the last chapter torn out from an engrossing read and we’re left guessing its contents. The lack of closure is tough on the soul, especially when the ink refuses to dry”.

This is a story of love, betrayal and retribution between Sanaya and Siddharth woven into a business environment.
The plot has corporate vitality, a cozy love affair and thirst for revenge.
Language is radiant and the narration is ordinary. A simple and comforting tale of affection.
Characters are crafted well and there is the perfect metamorphosis of characters according to the storyline so you will enjoy the fluctuating voyage of characters in this book. Also, this book is categorised under romantic thriller but I found it very light and soft read.
The book cover is so elegant and vibrant. Title of the book is familiar with the plot and can't be better than this but the over-all idea of this story not that unique. Language is susceptible and a short storyline that one can finish a book in one go

This is a twisted story about a girl her love that is falling apart and it was a very entertaining and captivating read. We have various and it was so interesting seeing their struggle. Main protagonist Sanaya is quite likeable.There is a lot going on in this one story and I can easily picture this book as a movie. It is overly dramatic (especially that ending!) but it kept me wanting to read to see what was going to happen next.
Also chapter heading is quite eye catching.

The book narrates the story of Sanaya and Siddharth. It takes us through Sanaya’s life from joining as an Assistant Manager to claiming the seat of a Chairperson rewarded by her hard work, the reasons for her metamorphosis from a sweet, innocent, loving girl to a girl always in disguise. The author has put down the story of Sanaya(before her metamorphosis) from Sanaya’s Pov where she grows feelings for Siddharth, her colleague. The relationship runs as a regular love story until one of them had to answer to the question of trust.
I enjoyed reading it, short and fast paced. Unlike regular love stories, it involves twists which was unpredictable till the end. For the book asks and reminds us that there are always two sides of a coin. I’m all in content with the end. The emotional turmoil I went through in the midway of this book would be the best and was worth it regading the ending. OH! YESS!! The ending is what you might love the most.

This is the sixth book of the author. This book revolves around the main protagonist Sanaya Sharma, who works as an Assistant Manager in a consulting firm. She met Sid, who works at the same company and both fell in love with each other soon. Everything went like a fantasy until Misha enters their life. Misha is the daughter of the business tycoon, Mr.Kashyap. One day, without any clue, Sid breaks up with Sanaya on her birthday. This event bursts her emotions and breaks her heart. Gradually, Sid and Misha were together and got married. "Revenge is a dish best served cold" is the one-liner motive of Sanaya. Now, Sanaya bears a grudge and decides to retaliate against him. The plot takes a great turn here. To know what happened next, go and buy the book asap!
The things I loved in the book are the narration and storytelling part. It was so engaging and gripping throughout. I love the character portrayal of Sanaya Sharma, who is painted as a bold and empowering personality in the later plot. The language is radiant and clear. The choice of words is excellent and I should say, it convened the readers very well. The cover is good and the title is well inclined to the plot. This is a short book, you can read the whole book in one sitting. I should congratulate the author for a fabulous recital of the story. My best wishes to the author!

A corporate love story.
Sanaya is like a Phoenix born from ashes, while she thinks on avenging her heart breaker Siddharth, she cannot restrain reminiscing their old memories.
She's all geared up with a full formed plan to crush Siddharth while some part of her heart can't just unlove him.
They were living a perfect life, Sana and Sid. Until one day Sana finds him distant, and the reason she discovers is Misha, the daughter of his new project partner Mr.Kashyap. The final shock she receives on her birthday leaves her in total disaster. On her revenge route, she discovers yet other revelations that channels a new hope to their relationship.
But destiny has something else in their reserve.
.
Altogether this story had a great plot, the narration was gripping and the way characters were designed was excellent.
This was my second read by author Namrata Gupta. She has a beautiful way of storytelling, the book had no boring parts and was quite gripping.

Love is a (w)hole
Book name- Together we were (w)hole
Author- Namrata Gupta
'Hatred is also a form of love.'
The story was good. How Sanaya love for Siddharth lead them together but Destiny makes them apart. Will they be together? I won't give a spoiler but it is a one-time read book and you will be satisfied after reading the story the writer penned. There was Love, revenge, breakup, friendship all in one go. Nicely written.

A page turner is an understatement for Together We were (W)hole. This thriller opens in an office cabin when it suddenly begins to rain cats and dogs. A major business deal is about to be signed but what pans out is corporate politics and mishandled secrets which the protagonist deals with wit and cool headedness. Like love, everything is fair in the corporate world too as the first few pages show. It takes grit to endure the ups and downs of the corporate ladder but the lead protagonist is one strong woman. At the end of the day, the novel is a woman’s lonely fight seeking justice while wanting to do justice at the same time.
From here, the story goes into the past sort of like a flashback from the perspective of the protagonist and relays her first day at the corporate office. Soon after the readers are introduced to the protagonist who is Sanaya Sharma, an assistant manager in M & S consultancy Services Limited, a Japan based multinational company operating in forty countries and listed on all major stock exchanges with a net worth of INR 300 crores. She is someone who is frank, honest, emotional and opens up to the reader without much hesitation about what she truly thinks and feels. This is what gets readers attached to Sanaya Sharma’s character immediately even before they know more about all that she has been through. It is not her corporate position that she holds that makes her a gutsy, fiery, boss lady. In fact, she is humble, has a good presence of mind and is self- motivated to do good and bring out the good in others too. Yet, it is this that makes her trip on thorny paths and get hurt instead. Hence, characterisation is top notch and helps to visualise the struggles of individual characters with clarity.
Sanaya is introduced to Siddharth who is a senior colleague and he helps her get acquainted with the do’s and don’ts at work along with the giving her an overview of her duties. They soon realise that she lives in Defence Colony and he lives in Malviya Nagar. As residents of South Delhi working in the same office, they immediately strike a bond. This hints at the plot twist that is to follow with a close relationship that the two develop much later in the plot. They share the difficulties in their lives and have a mutual respect for each other that strengthens their bond. They are in love or at least Sanaya thinks so but how far is it right to allow work and love to play together for long? Soon after, things take a rapid turn when Siddharth becomes engrossed in his business venture with a renowned businessman Mr. Kunal Dev Kashyap and ends up giving Mr. Kashyap’s daughter Misha all his attention. This brings about a rift in the relationship of Sanaya and Siddharth and he breaks up with her on her birthday.
The plot is engrossing and captivating no doubt, but it is also the manner of story telling that deserves special credit. The author writes with ease with a style that leaves many loose ends but in the end of the novel all of it is tied up meaningfully. The reader receives the closure they are looking for through a narrative that picks up pace as is it goes without over riding or undermining important climaxes. Again, this facilitates to visualise the scenes while putting across the feelings of the characters. Readers are bound to go through angst, sorrow and disgust as the reader is made to remain highly emotionally involved. This breaks away the notion of the novel being a typical love triangle. The dialogues are plenty while the narrative is mostly in the first person. This gives it a script like feel while reading and the novel has the elements of suspense, tension and conflict that make it possible to be dramatized or picturised.
All chapter have a title that runs along the chapter numbers which puts across an important idea that is mentioned in the chapter and also serves to present the crux of the chapter. The punning on the title is cleverly placed that gives the idea that together the two characters felt complete and incomplete at the same time. Typographical details include a line with a few leaves that marks a spatio-temporal shift in the narrative. At every point when the reader thinks that this is it, the novel throws in a new angle that was totally unpredictable in a tale of betrayals, misunderstandings and vengeance. The book cover clearly captures the most important climax of the plot, the attack on Sanaya. Despite all the attention to details, it would have been better if the book also came with a contents page too. Regardless, the book keeps readers on the edge, has a fresh new feel to corporate love stories and makes for a thoroughly entertaining read.

When you fall in love with someone deeply and madly then you don't realize how incomplete and dull your life can become in their absence. Such is the story of Sanaya.
Sanaya is a hard-working woman who recently gets a job in a consultancy services company. She is intelligent, gorgeous and purpose-driven. She meets her senior, Siddharth, and after few meetings and outings, they fall in love with each other. It is a fast-paced romance so readers can expect the plot to be engrossing and thrilling which it truly is.
It is said and I quote - one cannot love and be wise. Sanaya and Siddharth fall in love as deeply as someone who forgets about the existence of the outer world when in love. Love gives you a marvellous feeling which you won't experience otherwise. It makes you value your existence even more. All of it is possible only when you have the right person by your side. With the wrong person, your life becomes toxic. It's a cycle.
Every relationship has its ups and downs but how you solve your problems will measure the amount of understanding between the two. Siddharth starts working with Mr Kashyap who is a businessman. Because of his work, he also speaks to Mr Kashyap's daughter, Misha. Misha recently got her heartbroken and Siddharth feels like it is his responsibility to be there for her in times of need. With time, Sanaya and Siddharth start drifting away because of Siddharth's interest in Misha. What will happen next? Will they break up or will Sanaya discover the truth behind Siddharth's sudden change in behaviour? Read to know.
As mentioned above, the book is fast paced and things unfold quickly. The writing style of the author is brilliant and it definitely makes you feel all those emotions that the characters in it go through. Language is lucid and convenient but in some parts, it gets confusing. The story switches from present to 3 years in the past and all of it happens in the on going chapters only. Like I wouldn't be confused if there were separate chapters for past and present but after some efforts and concentration, I was able to make sense of it.
More than anything, I loved the storylines of the book. I liked how well developed the characters are and how strongly they are created.
The climax of the book was bit rushed according to me. So many revelations occur and you need to focus properly to understand what's going on. I feel that the climax could be a little slower and bit more descriptive so that it doesn't feel fast paced and unrealistic. I highly recommend this to people who enjoy reading contemporary romance or people who are beginners in it. Go for it.

Together we were whole is a love story, which has love and aspirations, but also has a sense of betrayal, hard work, revenge and suspense. These are the kind of stories which makes you change opinion about the character from one step to another. The language used is an easy one therefore its easy to read and the characters have also been kept few thus to avoid any kind of complexities and confusion.
Sanya and Siddarth are two people working in the same office and due to certain similarities in there habit they quite hit a chord , and everything seems to be like a paradise , which we generally see in the starting of almost every love story , but as the time grows and Sid starts a new venture , there are certain difficulties that occur in there close knit tale ,because not only is there entry of Misha but also Mr.kashyap and the twists that unfold at every chapter will keep you grasping for more .
The last two chapters have an ultimate surprise and something unexpected comes in the story which actually changes whole mood of the story that was being built by Sana's present emotions ,but the twists , the discoveries of past changed a lot and for that you will have to read this tale .
It's really important to have trust in a relationship, not only that helps to build a relationship but also helps in making it grow even stronger, and to handle problems when they go out of hand.No matter what your dreams are, work for them, but don't indulge into it so much that you forget what is happening, and that you are at last caught in a loophole. These are some of the messages that this story give.
It's different from the usual stories and therefore can be given a read.
I personally believe love cannot be forced, and there is nothing that can make you love someone if you just don't. Some things should be left on emotions and not at all involves money with it, because that would have been wrong. In today's time its a really hard time to find out who is being real to you and who is being selfish, but we must always believe in our own heart. Love someone as much as you can, and let them go, if you people are not meant to be together, there is nothing like revenge in love.

Have you ever read a book which makes you blush extravagantly also perplexed, thrilled at the same time thinking something had happened and something is about to happen. Confused right?
This was me while reading this book. Dont judge a book by its cover , and dont even think to judge, by its title. Underestimated the book, it turned out to be an impeccable one.
Together we were (w)hole is the story about 2 workplace buddies Sanaya and Sidharath , who falls in love with each other. He is the man with whom she wants to share her mind, body, soul, her dreams.She is the woman he has always dreamt of -The Dream girl. Everything was just perfect. But as we all know, time and people can change. And it did. Time have changed , so did Sidharath. Is that easy to abandon a love you got which is hard to find ? Then why did he do?
Reading this riveting page turner was like watching a cute romantic web series where you keep blushing all the time. There was no scenes where the story felt dull or cliché. The one thing that contributed to keep me hooked, was the way author have created to tell the past and present in every chapter , without making it complicated.At one moment if its Love in the air, then the next, its revenge for what Sidharath had done.The new Sanaya will steal your hearts with the elegance, shrewdness and the power she holds unlike the cute, adorable old Sana. Precisely I loved every part of the book. Though my guess of "something -being-fishy" in Sid's new behaviour was right, but what happened in the climax came like bolt from the blue. If you are a romance freak,mid-level thriller addict or movie lover then you must not miss this one.Even the book is apt for non readers as the writing style and narration is lucid. The plot has everything to keep you gripped and not to leave it in between.
Rating: 4.2 stars
This was me while reading this book. Dont judge a book by its cover , and dont even think to judge, by its title. Underestimated the book, it turned out to be an impeccable one.
Together we were (w)hole is the story about 2 workplace buddies Sanaya and Sidharath , who falls in love with each other. He is the man with whom she wants to share her mind, body, soul, her dreams.She is the woman he has always dreamt of -The Dream girl. Everything was just perfect. But as we all know, time and people can change. And it did. Time have changed , so did Sidharath. Is that easy to abandon a love you got which is hard to find ? Then why did he do?

I have read two titles by this author and I love her writing style. It is easy to understand and intriguing at the same time.
.
This story revolves around two people, Sanaya Sharma and Siddharth. Sanaya Sharma starts her first job as an Assistant Manager in a consulting firm, where she develops a close bond with her senior colleague, Sid. Discussing life’s adversities brings them closer to each other and soon their friendship blossoms into love.
However, their relationship begins to suffer when Sid starts concentrating on his business venture in partnership with a renowned businessman, Mr Kushal Dev Kashyap and seemingly starts giving more attention to his daughter, Misha.
Sid breaks off with Sanaya. After looking into the heart of betrayal, Sanaya rises from the ashes like a phoenix to right the wrongs done to her. Three years later, she re-enters Sid’s life by becoming a secret business partner in his company, The Misarth Group, co-owned by Sid and his wife Misha.
Walk with Sanaya in this tale of vengeance amidst distorted personal relationships, misunderstandings and masked identities in a business environment of deceit, power plays and games.
.
👉This story was quite an interesting one and fun to read.
👉For me, the first half was more interesting and cute. The second half about betrayal and revenge seemed a little too dragged out.
👉 The ending was completely unpredictable and took me by shook but I loved it.
👉The narration was lucid and intriguing.
👉Overall, it was a good fun read.

Together we were (W)hole by Namrata Gupta is a romance-thriller book and…..I have got a lot to say so, let’s get started, shall we?
A little about the book:
It starts with Sanaya Sharma; a girl who is plotting something against someone (forgive me but I can’t spoil it). The story then spins off in the past where we see Sanaya, getting started with her first job in a firm. And guess what? She falls in love with a very charming, sweet colleague namely, Mr. Siddharth Sachdev; who loves her back (obviously). A couple of months into their relationship, when things are going amazing; Siddharth suddenly starts behaving like a complete stranger. What’s got into him?
What I think about it:
The book started off great and I guessed I would finish it before I even knew. It’s just 120 pages and got me hooked immediately. The story flashes back and forth from past to the present which built up nice suspense and I had finished 50 pages in the 1st sitting. But (I hate buts) the 2nd half of the book, oof, I did not like it. I did not like how the story went on from there. Maybe because it became so fast paced and should have taken at least 100 pages more. AND I did not like the end. It was so abrupt, it came as a shock.
Final say:
I have to admit; the book was written admiringly well and I commend the author for that. It had so much potential and I would have loved to see it evolve differently; but the efforts put by Namrata Gupta are definitely praiseworthy. I wish her all the best for the future!

" Some heartbreaks break you more than anything ever did and you can never go back to who you were before it."
The protagonist here is a young ambitious girl named Sanaya, who gets placed in a consultancy services company, where she meets Siddharth, her senior. Sanaya is simple, clever and hard-working. Siddharth is a professional through and through.
Both of them fall madly in love with each other after a few conversations and one outing. They discover many similarities between themselves. But, after a while, Siddharth starts acting all weird as he works on a deal with Mr. Kashyap, a big businessman and starts talking to his daughter, Misha. Eventually, Sanaya and Siddharth start drifting apart, but Sanaya finds it extremely difficult to move on as she is blindly in love with him. On her birthday, he breaks up with her without any prior intimation of doing so.
The story takes a three year leap where we find Sanaya as an accomplished business woman who is desperate to take her revenge from Siddharth. Meanwhile, Siddharth is the head of a company called Misarth group and is married to Misha.
Will Sanaya be successful in her plan? Will they get back together in the process?
Read to know!
Reading this book felt like the story of a daily soap unveiling before my eyes. It is fast-paced, surprising and captivating at the same time. The word game is pretty strong.
If you are looking for a short and breezy romantic read, this is the one!

Together We Were (W)hole
by Namrata Gupta
The book is an all round story revolving around the protagonists Sanaya and Sid but obviously with a decent twist especially after their break-up. Misha, Sid's then wife is the co-owner of the business firm they are managing and Sanaya is a secret partner just to hold for vengeance and stand upto the betrayal she faced. The second part of the book gives the ultimate meaning of the brackets around (W) in the title of whole.
This book makes you feel excited and nervous at the same time with its intriguing mysterious approach to the human instincts. The rollercoaster ride begins in the reader's mind from the very beginning as the protagonist is humble and fierce simultaneously. The feminine approach to the situations is the creator of dark mysteries and humility with kindness and compassion.
Speaking of the plot, it was equipped with a very promising and well-staged premise. This is one of those books where the storyline itself is so concrete and imaginative, that the rest of the branches of the story all somehow adjust and fit in. The characters themselves uphold the air of mystery and secrecy that is the icing on the cake.
The book is recommended for those who have a high end interest in an intriguing romantic thriller and a definite page turner!
