The Wedding Photographer
by Sakshama Puri Dhariwal
Description:
On a seventeen-hour-long flight, a chance upgrade to business class lands journalist Risha Kohli next to handsome real estate hotshot Arjun Khanna. What’s more? Risha has been moonlighting as a photographer and her next assignment is Arjun’s sister’s wedding: the most anticipated social event of the year!
But Arjun doesn’t trust journalists and suspects this smart, sexy and incredibly spunky girl of using their mutual attraction as a ploy to invade his privacy for a newspaper scoop. And Risha, unaware of Arjun’s personal demons, is worried that this dishy tycoon’s unnerving behaviour will jeopardize her biggest photography gig so far.
What follows is a rollercoaster of snarky quips, sizzling chemistry and simmering drama amidst a Big Fat Indian Wedding

Skryf Review
A delightful debut novel, it is a romantic comedy as well as a sharp satire on present day Delhi and India. Book is filled with Bollywood references, Punjabi quirks, snarky asides spicing up the sugar of the romance.
This book will probably get a lot of praise for its breezy style, smooth pace and the eminently likeable heroine but in addition we found there was a fair bit of research on various aspects – wedding photography, society reporting, long haul flights – that made it a really interesting read.The writing was very simple just like the plot. The author didn’t make anything complex, not much of big twists. A simple, neat and straight forward rom-com by Sakshama Puri Dhariwal on her debut.
