Sanya doesn’t just have trouble, she has double trouble. Twins Arth and Ansh Sharma, are rich, sexy and sinfully handsome – what’s a girl to do?
Sanya last saw the twins when she was ten years old. Now, all grown up, she has come looking for gentle Arth, the twin she has loved ever since she can remember. But instead, she is confronted with fiery Ansh, who is hell-bent on seducing her. And what’s worse, she can’t seem to stop herself from responding to him.
As she chases Arth and is chased by Ansh, Sanya finds herself on a crazy roller coaster ride with no way of getting off. How will she deal with these two very different men in her life? Will she be able to convince one twin that she loves the other?
Double Jeopardy is a 55 page eBook which I finished reading in an hour! It is hot and spicy, is coming of age story of a young girl, Sanya! The book is about Sanya’s journey to woo her childhood love along with finding her true calling and listening to her heart despite the disapproval from the head. It is a story packed with love, romance and passion.
The author has a nice style to her writing. She is able to grab onto the emotion, focus her story on the characters while also keeping the reader’s attention, and telling a great story. I liked the pace with which the story unfolds.
Double Jeopardy is a very short story, which I enjoyed reading. But a small thought is niggling me. I am wondering, what if the length of the story was a bit longer? I believe, the depth of the characters would have emerged better and a leisurely pace of the story, especially towards the end would have balanced the fervor with moments of deliberate quiet!
An exciting, light, quick breezy read. Double Jeopardy is highly recommended.

Hmm…. sounds interesting. Is it available only on e-book format ? Will try getting it then… ( Your post just reminded me about the pending order to FK 😛 😛 )
A short n crisp review 🙂

I agree with your point there, yes. A little longer length would have been even better 🙂

Wow… you think so too!! Yes, in the current format, I felt the end was a little rushed up! But this will make for a nice movie! 🙂

Hi Shilpa, this is a nice, peppy e-book review. It’s the first e-book review I am reading too. I am one of those people who find it difficult to not hold a book in hand and read. I hope I am able to change from that old mindset and embrace the new, esp since it would help save paper, right?
Not sure if I will graduate soon into the world of e-reading but if more and more amazing bloggers like you keep blogging e-book reviews, perhaps I too will change. Stay blessed, keep writing!

Hi Swapna! I had the same views too!! I had a lot of apprehensions about eBooks and the scales were in favour of paperbacks only. But this year, when I read the first eBook on my Kindle app, I was hooked. I simply loved the experience!! Try it, I am sure you will love it too! 🙂 Thank you for your warm wishes and kind words! Best wishes to you too 🙂 ♥

Nice review but as you have said the book is just 55 pages long book. I too wonder how the story can develop in so few pages. I wouldn’t be tempted to read this one.
March 23, 2014 5:22 pm|
It is a fast paced story and I quite liked it! Check it out, you will enjoy the experience of reading such a short but an interesting book 🙂

Hot and spicy. You couldn’t get better than that, Shilpa and sweet, hot N Spicy review. I agree the story could have been extended for interaction among characters with drama. Love the book:)
