I couldn't make up my mind if I wanted to write about Ken Follet or Hannah Fielding for "F". I found Hannah's work more interesting than Follet's work. Follet's work predominantly are financial thrillers while, Hannah's work is much of a romantic thriller.

About the writer
My interaction with this writer began a couple of years ago when she sent her book, The Echoes of Love. The richness of the cover left me dumbstruck. It looked so beautiful and the very smell of the book left me dizzy. The story was equally enthralling and rich. The characters were intense and were well developed. All her books have a magical element involved in them. The highlight of all her works would be the characterization. She would begin with a basic sketch and add layers and layers neatly to give a complete picture. In the age of cringe worthy and tasteless romance books, her books are a refreshing change. Call me old fashioned, but the feeling of reading a story with strong female character courted properly the alpha male character cannot be matched at all by these instant romance stories.
Do read my reviews of her books
Do give her books a try for they are totally worth it!
Good one Janani. Nice to know about different authors, unknown to me. I think romance is actually pretty difficult to write, as a genre. So succeeding in writing romance is definitely an achievement. What do you think?
ReplyDeletePure proper romance is difficult to write. Success in this genre is an achievement but then in our country, romance has a different description all together. Her books wouldn't suit people who enjoy Durjoy Dutta or Chetan Bhagat
ReplyDeleteHaha. Yeah, true. I never agreed with/related to the new school romance. I like proper old school romance where there is real love, not something that is projected as love. No wonder the authors you mention try to cover the new age audience who believe that, that is romance.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they will grow up one day to understand what real love is.
Phew! Happy to see someone thinking alike!
ReplyDeleteHehe.. ☺
