Book Review: Claiming His Bollywood Cinderella

Claiming His Bollywood Cinderella is written by Tara Pammi and published by M&B Modern.   Vikram Raina is a Bollywood billionaire actor who has saved his family’s business whilst also becoming one of Bollywood’s most sought after actors.  Naina Manon is his grandmother’s assistant. Naina mocks Vikram during their first meeting but then has a one night stand with him, after the masked masquerade ball, without him knowing who she is! He realises who she is during their next meeting and their affair continues. Unfortunately Naina’s family have financial problems and she is forced ask Vikram for a job. Naina becomes Vikram’s assistant. They travel to the Maldives and this is where their relationship starts to fail. Will they be able to salvage their relationship.

I enjoyed the book, although Naina isn’t really a Cinderella character, rather she is independent, highly educated, not afraid to speak her mind and supports her family. The last few chapters were rather rushed and formulaic, spoiling the earlier ones where the storyline was new and fresh, with characters that the reader could empathise and relate to. 

I received this book via Netgalley and Mills and Boon in exchange for a honest review. I am a #MillsAndBoonInsider #netgalley #gifted
