I had a great time reading this book! I love the aunties! It was so well written. The characters tackle tough topics beautifully. It's full of humor. I laughed so much reading this. Kareena is turning thirty. When she goes out to celebrate with her friends she meets the man of her dreams until he deserts her. Prema doesn't believe in love. He believes in proper medicine and chemistry.  When he discusses this on the Dr. Dil Show he is ambushed by the women he left unexpectedly the night before. Great read!

This book was the true definition of a rom-com to me. There was the perfect balance of spice and humor and emotion and I truly cannot wait to pick up the second book in the series. I think Nisha Sharma might've just turned into an auto-buy author for me!!

(little spoilery section about the spicy scenes below!!)

So, the only thing I really had qualms with in this book was the sex scenes. At certain times, they felt a little fanfiction-y to me. They weren't bad necessarily, it just felt kind of like I was reading something on Wattpad in a way. Oh yeah, also she named his d!ck for some reason? I will never look at another person named Charlie the same way again 🫣

What I enjoyed most about this book was all the mentions of Indian/Desi food. Yum.

Unfortunately I don’t see it working out for these two once they get tired of all the sex. I didn’t see mutual respect between the couple, and they both need major therapy.
