Title: At the Threshold of Love
Author: Namita Sonthalia
Blurb: They fell in love – unknown that it had happened to them! They faced the ordeals of their lives with vigor and charm. They hurt when reality pricked their hearts – all the while, unknown of each other’s existence. But the passion that lay veiled within their hearts – would that be enough to re-write their future together?
My Views:
I like the intensity with which the events are winded together. This book has all the flavors, a romantic fiction should have. Starting from story-line: comprises of all the drama, the proper amount of emotions are poured, family situations are being handled wisely, and most important twist and a pinch of suspense and jealousy were there, which altogether makes it a power-pack read! Characterization: There are limited characters, and the ones who are there and very properly illustrated and the reader can feel familiar with all of them without giving credit to their brain-muscles.
Narration: Narration was neither underdog nor overdog. It was something that could work well with the story. The narration is meant for the reader who loves light-read, and who are more into romantic fiction. As romantic fiction are adorned simpleton writing styles, with no opulence of words; and good enough to endorse proper sense to the story. Pace: The story runs at a constant pace; giving enough time to the readers to be in its wrap.
These days I'm not much into romantic fictions; as every second Indian writer wants to create their name in romantic-fiction; resulting in serving the same content altogether. But, such light-reads are good for a weekend stuff! I was lost in the story and was completely enjoying the bumps gifted to the story.

Ahaana Agarwal, living in Bangalore, India, runs an event management company, The Threshold of Love, with partner and childhood friend Ansh. Enveloped in the bliss of creating beautiful marriages and celebrating love in the lives of her clients, she is unknown to the emotion herself. But only until business tycoon Ronit Malhotra arrives at her doorstep.
At first sight, she experiences what weak knees are and is yet unable to fathom the courage to accept that it could be love! The dream and confused rattle of the heart dwindles into disappointment when Ronit approaches her to get his wedding planned.
As fate may have it, Ronit too cannot stay oblivious to Ahaana's charm and charismatic magnetism. When things spiral out of control, the fun-loving and handsome stranger Soham Sehgal meets Ahaana at her cousin’s wedding. While destiny decides to get them married, will true love and passion make way into the inevitable and re-do what fate had already carved?
The complications and the pain that love brings are inevitable, yet the charm and grandeur of the satisfaction of being loved is incomparable. ‘At The Threshold of Love’ creates those emotions and makes you live it through, until the very last page. Once you take it into your hands, be prepared for it ‘melts your heart – one breath at a time!’My Views:
