Book Blurb

"Everyone tells me to stay away from him. But if only I knew how to resist him…"

Goa isn’t supposed to be on Damon O'Neil's list of places to stay while working in India. It's merely a substitute for his planned trip to visit his sister in Paris for Christmas and the New Year. His boss had other ideas. He's sent Damon to carry out urgent upgrades to the company's offshore units and Damon can't say no.

When Damon encounters an extra-spicy curry, a handsome Indian guy named Virat comes to his rescue. Damon is instantly smitten with his looks, and especially with his cute smile. But Damon soon realizes he is very much out of his league when Virat introduces his new wife.

However, there might just be a chance Virat isn’t all he pretends to be …

 

Book Review

“There are times when you want to say or feel things but you don't, as we end up thinking if it's right or wrong. But we forget feelings does not have boundaries unlike the norms of life made by us... Sometimes it's better to let them flow.” ~ Nidhi Saini

Damon, of Sid Love's 'Let It Go', is bemoaning the fact that his company has interfered with his holiday plans. Instead of having turkey with his family, he is spending the holidays alone in a strange city. As he looks around, everyone else seems to be with someone and it makes him feel even lonelier. Things are looking up when he meets Virat, a handsome, friendly man with a killer smile. Damon is instantly smitten, but there's a catch. Virat is not alone.

Although Damon is disappointed that Virat isn't available, he isn't about to try and come between a couple so he can have someone for himself. While Damon is trying to resign himself to his circumstances, Virat isn't making being good easy. He gives Damon mixed signals; encouraging Damon with little looks and touches that Damon is finding difficult to resist. Virat is constantly finding ways to spend time alone with Damon. Although he is concerned, Damon is also intrigued. He's fighting his feelings, trying to do the right thing, but wonders just what the right thing is in this case. Damon knows that Virat is with someone, but he also senses that Virat isn't happy, possibly because he's living a lie. Damon knows he should just walk away, but he can't, especially when that doesn't seem to be what Virat wants. Damon is wondering if it is better to do the right thing for the wrong reason, even if it ultimately involves hurting others by lying to them and himself. Both men seem to be caught up in this predicament and there is no clear cut solution.

Being unfaithful isn't something I condone, but life isn't always black and white. Love doesn't care about circumstances; it only knows what it wants and will persist until it has it. Sometimes the best we can do is regroup, be honest, set things as right as possible. If you like angst, tough life decisions, and learning about holiday customs in other cultures, you may appreciate this story. Thanks, Sid, for the intense and enlightening holiday read.
