Soon, she gets a chance to be a part of a photoshoot in Seychelles. She encounters her ex-boyfriend Ronnie who just won&#8217;t leave her alone. Despite all the things that go wrong for her, she meets Omkar and the story progresses from there.<\/p>\n<p>The plot was a bit predictable but enjoyable still. I found the romance development to be too fast. I feel if the characters had spent more time with each other and then declared their feelings, it would have been more believable.<\/p>\n<p>I always love characters who are ambitious and focused on their careers. However, I found Adrija to be a little all over the place. She suddenly seemed to be making a lot of progress career wise but readers, we need to believe and see her talent which could have been described better. I couldn&#8217;t find Omkar charming. Him being incredibly rich was too cliche.<\/p>\n<p>The writing could be a lot better and enhanced with some editing.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, this is a book short enjoyable romantic read. With some editing, it could be highly improved. The pot was enjoyable. I would recommend it to fans of this genre.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">\u201cI got the book as a part of the review program in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/rakhijayashankar.blogspot.in\/\">Outset<\/a>\u201c<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">Find me on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tavleen_words\/\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tavleensoni\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/user\/show\/32793447-tavleen-kaur\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Add the book on Goodreads Buy on Amazon Genre:\u00a0Romance Format:\u00a0Kindle Pages:\u00a0160 Source:\u00a0Review Copy My Rating:\u00a03 stars<\/p>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/index.php\/2018\/08\/07\/the-last-seychelles-flame-by-medha-nagur-book-review\/#more-11829\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading &#10142; <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">The Last Seychelles Flame by Medha Nagur (Book Review)<\/span><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[85,99,164,389,390],"class_list":["post-11829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-book-reviews","tag-book-review","tag-books","tag-ebook","tag-romance","tag-romance-book"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":11867,"url":"https:\/\/travellingthroughwords.com\/index.php\/2018\/09\/13\/july-and-august-2018-wrap-up\/","url_meta":{"origin":11829,"position":0},"title":"July and August 2018 Wrap-Up","date":"September 13, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"Hey everyone!\u00a0How are you all?
