When the cameras stop rolling, the real scene begins. To their adoring public, Avi Kumar and Trishna Chaudhury are Bollywood's sweethearts. Behind closed doors, their open marriage lets them freely indulge in all manner of forbidden passions. The arrangement suits them both, but as they begin filming on the set of their new movie, the heat of new and rekindled flames singes the pages of what they thought would be a fresh script. When costars Michael Gill and Harsh Mathur arrive on set, the sexual temperature goes up exponentially--at least for Trish. She can't take her eyes of Harsh, for whom she's carried a torch for years. Avi's instant attraction to Michael, however, bounces off Michael's solid wall of resistance. Meanwhile, ex-boyfriends Vikram Malhotra and Sam Khanna, cast as fictional enemies, are finding it harder and harder to control the very real demons that once cost them the love of a lifetime. Once the music starts, though, they all have no choice but to dance . And pray the fallout doesn't ruin all their careers...and destroy their love. Warning: This book contains gay and straight sexytimes, smoking, drinking, references to drug use, and a gratuitous musical number involving The Beatles.… (plus d'informations)

Perhaps there's a cultural gap between this novella and me as a reader. Or maybe it just isn't that good of a book. Anyway, I've internalised the Aristotelian way of storytelling, and this book doesn't follow the formula.

The writing is quite good, but the plot, the structure and the rhythm are all over the place. Everything happens too fast, and emotion, the essential part of any romance, gets sidetracked. There's already too much going on for a 100+ pages novella, and bringing in a new romantic couple after a halfway mark is... well, exhausting (honestly, I skipped over that storyline). ( )
