About The Author:

Born and brought up in the beautiful hill town of Coonoor in Nilgiris, Jagdish Joghee has always been attracted to the hills and the forests. Growing up in the midst of serenity, Jagdish had enough inspiration to write short poems during his school days. He now lives in the city of Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu where he works for a leading global information technology services company.

Jagdish is an active blogger and writes on issues that have a social impact, apart from reviewing Indian movies. This book marks his foray into fiction. He considers himself more of a storyteller than a writer. Jagdish wants to write novels that will keep readers engaged with a good mix of romance, revenge, laughter and thrill. He is also keen to explore the realm of fantasy.

Book Blurb:

Shruthi has everything going in her life with great education, incredible romance, a wonderful husband, and two adorable kids. There is plenty of laughter, joy, and love in the cosy nest that Shruthi has carefully built.

All is well till that fateful Diwali day when passion gets the better of reason. One momentary lapse threatens to uproot the entire foundation of her beautiful life. The stakes are too high as Shruthi runs the risk of being abandoned by her husband and losing her children too.
And there is no one to blame but herself.

Caught in a cesspool of blackmail, ransom, revenge and remorse, Shruthi is on the brink of collapse. She can run but cannot hide.

My Review:

Many a times I pick a book only looking by its cover. ‘In Love and Free’ has a cover which seriously draws my attention. The book consists of only 108 pages, so if you are someone who is looking for some light easy reads, then go for this book.

Well the blurb tells a lot about the story so let me make it short, the story mainly revolves around the protagonist, Shruthi. It is her Story. Born in a rich family, Shruti had had almost everything. She was a topper in her school and college, she married the one she loved, Madhan. She had a lucrative job too. She was also the  mother of twins: a boy and a girl. But wait! Life can’t get that easy, right? When everything was smooth like butter, Rahul entry made everything changed.

Who is Rahul? How the story will end? Who is Deepa? Last but not the least, will Shruti survive till the end? All your questions will be answered once you finish reading the book. This book has a lot to tell.

Coming back to my views, I loved the story. It is bit different than the stories I have read before. The Author has kept it short and simple, and the way he had portray the protagonist’s state of mind is definitely commendable. I didn’t find any grammatical errors in the book and the language used is simple and easy to be read.

At the beginning, I somewhat felt that the author is using less words to narrate. But a few pages later, the narration got better and better. And with an unexpected climax, the book got even better.
