Picked it up, and read it cover to cover. 
Well-written characters with flaws that weren't an obnoxious trait to justify being an asshole. Filled with cute moments that make you kick your feet and squeal. To moments of pure rage, anger, and deep emphathy that made me cry endlessly for their pain. 
I don't know what other people rate it, but for me it had a little bit of everything.

<3<3<3<3 much love for the characters, book, and author

If you are looking for a romance book that has drama and plays into a  decent amount of tropes (forced proximity, dislike to lovers, taking care of the other when injured, ect.) then this book is exactly that. There was nothing ground breaking about this book, but it was overall enjoyable. Additionally, I enjoyed reading a romance book within a different culture. It added some unique characteristics to the story. However, the drama at the end of this book did feel a tad unnecessary and could have been solved with a little more communication.  

There is a decent amount of misogyny in this book, as well as a few darker themes, so check the trigger warnings.

While this book did have its cute moments, the

deep misogyny of Liya’s father, Ravi, and Mukesh

was hard to ignore. The

sexual assault was also really graphic, and I was SO. ANGRY. at the men in Liya’s life who fundamentally failed her.

  But all in all, it was really interesting exploring another culture and its traditions.
