This was a book I had been waiting to read, and it did not disappoint — I couldn’t put it down!

There were moments when the emotions were so strong that I actually felt angry with Tara. But by the end, I really liked how she changed and made up for her mistakes. The way the bond between the mother and son grew felt natural and real, not fake or sudden.

Samarth may not have been as clever as everyone thought, but I still loved him. Since we saw him in the earlier book, it felt like we got to watch him grow up.

And even though Giriraj had a small role, he left a strong impression. That shows how well the characters are written.

Overall, a beautiful story.

P.S. The cover is lovely and has such nice little details — it adds to the charm of the book.

Oh my gawwwddd!! This one took my breath away, Sam and Ava are to die for. Their friendship, relationship, them living out three decades of their life felt like a journey I have lived along with them. Author Bhavini has a knack to really loop you into her fantasy world. I didn’t wanted this book to end yet I wanted to devour it all at once cause I couldn’t get enough of this couple. Their love, loyalty and sacrifice, everything is so so pure that you will go through bouts of emotions yourself. I would and rave about this book to all my friends because it is truly a delight to read. More power to you our lovely author, keep em coming!!!! I want more of Sam and Ava. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

This was possibly the best book I've read in 2025 . Their love was fresh , loyal and all things amazing 😍. This book literally just felt like a hot plate of gajar ka halwa on a chill winter night infront of bonfire !!! This book has everything childhood love , highschool jealousy and a forever tag ! The way Ava n Sam have been depicted and their charecter development is just 💓😘

Just finished King’s Oath by Bhavini Desai — and I NEED to talk about it.

Okay, if you’re into intense stories with emotional depth, royalty, betrayals, and that lingering ache of duty vs desire — please read this book. It’s not just another fantasy drama. It actually hits you in the gut sometimes.

The main character — the king — is not your typical perfect ruler. He’s layered, messed up in all the right ways, and struggling so hard to keep his word even when it’s clearly destroying him. I loved how Bhavini Desai made him feel so real — like you get why he’s doing what he’s doing, even when it hurts.

The writing? Beautiful without being overdone. You’ll keep highlighting lines without even realizing.

So yeah. If you’re craving a book that pulls you in, wrecks you gently, and leaves you thinking about what it means to be loyal, broken, or brave — King’s Oath is your next read.

This book has it all, the giddiness, the slow burn and the loveee. It is too beautiful, I would 100 percent recommend the book for anyone who wants to fall in love with love again.

Have read it twice and at the age of 66 I still find it a must read for all. Lady you have killed it. The story over 2 generations if both books are read in tandem soes not lose its appeal even once. Now how about a third part for Sharan and Brahmi. Do something.

More needed about Samarth & Avantika..did they give Brahmi siblings...

Does Sharan become a doctor? Where does his interest in science lead him? And finally Bade Rawal and Rajmata without whom this story would not be possible - amazing couple :)

Can we get HRH Giriraj Singh of Mewad's story..

The insta reels brought me here and for once they weren’t wrong.

The story of royals with a second chance romance that is so detailed that if it were to be script the scriptwriter is gonna find it a pretty easy convert. Beautiful plot, sensible dialogues, and even though we could push this to the cliche romance category it is guided and drafted in a manner that gives the reader a fresh outlook.

Recommending to my friends.

Just finished The King’s Oath by Bhavi K Desai — and what an absolutely captivating read it was.

A beautiful coming‑of‑age story of a young prince and princess, and the trials that shaped them. Even in a world of privilege, this book doesn’t shy away from heartbreak, sacrifice, and the collapse of long‑held dreams.

At its heart, it’s a masterful exploration of loyalty — and the extraordinary lengths one can go for it — a value that feels increasingly rare in today’s world, making this story all the more important and poignant.

Bhavi K Desai has yet again proven why she’s one of my favorite authors. Her storytelling is the reason I bought a Kindle in the first place, and she’s the reason I’ve fallen in love with desi fiction. Truly a must‑read!

Loved the story as been waiting for samarth love story. Read the book from start to finish within 3 hrs as was unable to put down

Can't wait for more books from this author
