It Happens for a Reason Kindle Edition

by Preeti Shenoy (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

601 ratings

When Vipasha, Vee to friends, eighteen and single, makes the decision to have her baby, she does more than give up her promising modelling career. She ends up cutting ties with her family, and with Ankush, the man she thought she was in love with.
Fast-forward sixteen years, and she now has two unusual careers: she runs a dog-boarding facility and is a gym instructor. Aryan thinks she is the coolest mom in the world and hopes she will one day find her Prince Charming—exactly what her best friend Suchi has in mind for her. But Vee secretly has a thing for Saurabh, the quirky vet.
Then, out of the blue, Ankush comes back into their life.
But can a decision that was taken at eighteen—more in the throes of lust than love—be the basis of a life-long relationship? Is there a future for Ankush and Vee?
Vee, Aryan and Ankush are in for the ride of their lives. No seat belts, full speed and a very bumpy road ahead.

Review

Let me start by referring it a masterpiece to one s collections out of all the novels written by preeti shenoy. It is written so well and connects chapter by chapter. You can feel the love, You can feel the pain, You feel so connected with it and it seems like its happening in front of your eyes. Each relationship of Vee is written marvellously whether its with Suchi or Aryan or Ankush or above all the dogs. When you read and come across the disease, school, location or something which you might not relate to your day to day life, is so very well explained. This keeps you glued to the book. This shows how much efforts you have put in for us to understand and keep reading. Preeti, you have been a wonderful writer and its keep on getting better to the best you wrote earlier. I just love reading your novels. Keep writing, Keep inspiring. God Bless you..!!! Waiting for the next. --Arpit Shah Jan 4, 2015

If you write from your heart , you can make a beautiful story out of the people around you and the things you see everyday and Preeti Shenoy does exactly that. She is a master storyteller. IN IHFAR Preeti tells the story of Vee and how she transforms from a 18 year old moony-eyed teenager to a baddass single mom. Each character from Vee's life is unique and interesting. Some books can be judged by their covers and when you start reading IHFAR you know the cover does justice to the story. The ride is indeed spectacular. A must read --Rupalim Feb 21, 2015 --This text refers to the paperback edition.

"Vee"ry well done..!

Reviewed in India on 9 January 2018

Yet another read from you know who, my-soon-turned-favorite Preeti Shenoy ji, as amazing as any book, but i liked the 2 points that are touched really well in this book other than the theme, love for pets and the pleasure about raising kids, holding a life born from u itself is a thing of tremendous joy one that is indescribable in words, how beautiful it is raise them, take them for a walk, tell them our own life stories and saying that oh boy, your father was a hell naughty way back in your age, awesome narration, i really felt touched and emotional by the efficiency with which she carried out handling the sensitive emotions that can take your life turn all round at once, caring for a life that is brought from you, is simply the most mandate feeling one responsible citizen ought to have, and the determination, courage and patience portrayed by the protagonist "Vee" is damn inspirational, it is the way he chose her life to be creating paths she found joy and happiness in, paving for her own life in her own way, yet ofcourse life had it's own twists and turns for her, she stood and faced it all, succeeding in all tests life has put and in the end she did realize that " It happens for a reason ", what path u chose in life to shine doesn't really matter but ur commitment and determination towards pursuing that career where ur happiness lies, shows to the world what difference it is to live and to be happy.......!!!

Once Again, thanks madam for giving us some extraordinary literary works..!

One time read, second time you find the mono perspective narrative of the protagonist unjustifiable.

Reviewed in India on 20 November 2018

Verified Purchase

A bit disappointed just because of the mono perspective in which the story is narrated. Most of the decisions taken by the protagonist can be barely justified. If the story had been narrated from another perspective of the supporting characters the book could have been more appealing. Being a feminist i was not able to justify the decisions made by the protagonist but the writer chose to justify it anyway which is very unfair as it very unjust to the story itself.
Overall the story plot is good with different aspects of life embedded in it.
This book can be recommended as an one time read.

I loved this story! Teenage crush, love & mistakes & life lessons.

Reviewed in India on 11 October 2018

This one keeps the reader hooked from the first page to the last!

Preeti shenoy bks are written beautifully abt emotions and relationships in simple eng for mass accessibility and absorption.

I love her reads, each unique and conveying an important life lesson.

This one talks abt teenage crush, love, the immaturity, the impatience, the mistakes, the effects it has on our like in the long term..abt life choices..about dilemma and decisions.

There a strong single mother, a very smart kid and a dog creche.

A beautiful story, worth reading, every bit!
Don't wanna give any spoilers.
I read it in oct 2018 & reread it now, in oct 2020 and found a dried crouton 🍀leaf and was so happy n nostalgic.

Catch the blurb here;
When a strong, self- dependent and bold lady, Vipasha, known to her friends as Vee, makes a choice that changes everything, she is left to wonder if life really holds any reason at all. The story starts with Vee lying in a hospital after making the biggest decision in her short 18-year-old life.

Vee, loving and carefree, is overridden by lust at the ripe age of 18; she lands up pregnant and has to make the final call on whether to keep the child or not. She chooses to become a single mother, which leaves her modeling career and personal life in mayhem.

After being deserted by her family and Ankush, the man she thought she loved, she finds comfort and love in her son, Aryan.

The story fast-forwards to sixteen years later and we see a new Vee. Working between two jobs to keep bread on the table, her relationship with her son is emotionally stirring and elating to read. While Aryan hopes his mother finds her Prince Charming, Vee nurtures her secret crush on the quirky vet, Saurabh.

This small world where Vee survives is ripped into shreds when two major twists hit her life. An accident at her dig-boarding facility and the return of Ankush into her life bring chaos flowing in all ways. As Vee, Aryan and Ankush get into a roller-coaster heading straight to nowhere, the reader enjoys their bumpy ride.

A medium length bk around 260pages, capable of being finished in max 2 sittings!

After read this book I got to understand the importance of love and sacrifice and how is important in our life. How different situation comes in our life and makes the person who we are today. Some situations are not in our hand but how a positive mind set can give another chance to us to live a happy life. Thanks Preeti Shenoy for writing such a wonderful book.

What is so good about this book is the fact that the author has turned a pretty straightforward plot into a very interesting read. The idea behind the book is a tried and tested one but by sheer dint of imaginative writing and narration the author manages to hold our interest through out the book. I kept turning the pages nonstop. Recommend this book for people who love romance.

Great Story 👌👌

Reviewed in India on 28 January 2018

Amazingly writtien by Preeti mam, really this book conveys a very good message about how things just happen in life and there's nothing much anyone can do about it rather than accpeting them and dealing with them in the best possible ways. The book is about a girl named Vipasha, with whom a set of unfortunate things occur, which atleast to her seem unfortunate at first , but at the end she understands that ' It happens for a reason'. She makes some strong decisions and how her life turns out to be a mess but she still finds ways to conquer through her problems.Offcourse she has some quality support from her 2 friends and a caretaker and also from her father. Though its quite well written but I still thought that it got just a little boring at the start ( just before that unfortunate incident takes place at paw factor) otherwise it was a delight to read it.Great job Preeti Mam. Loved it

An excellent read!

This is such a lovely book, I was unable to put it down. The story is of a young girl who takes her life and makes her own choices around it. The book is well written with some good quotes within it reminding the reader that life is about making choices and indeed everything does happens for a reason! A story of love, friendship and family.

Unwed mother's story.

Reviewed in the United States on 25 February 2015

This is the first book I've read by Preeti Shenoy, I guess my expectations were high.

The story, the way it started felt promising and interesting. Somewhere midway it lost steam for me, when the thread of Vee getting involved with Saurabh, was abondened.

The only character which was well etched was of Vee, apart from her no one stood out. I expected Saurabh to play more role in Vee's life, so that it would have been difficult for her decide between Ankush and Saurabh. That thread felt incomplete.

Why was the mother vindicated? I couldn't understand.
