Thank you to NetGalley, Avon and Harper Voyager for this electronic arc in return for an honest review!

I loved reading this book! Kareena and Prem have great chemistry and are so easy to love. Some of my favorite things about this story are the aunties, Kareena's sweater vests, her passion for taking care of and keeping her mother's house, and Prem's dedication to his dream. Each of the main characters seemed well thought out. Still, I had fun talking back to the characters as if they could hear my advice and comments!

The aunties mentioned this being a classic Bollywood scenario and I must admit that I'd totally watch it! The only thing I wasn't a fan of was how many times Prem used his pet name for Kareena.

I find it so cool that the author set this story (and many others, I think) in Edison, NJ which is known to have a large population of South Asians. It made me feel like I could just step into the lives of these characters or recognize the landmarks mentioned in the story. I can imagine the folx who live there feeling really seen!

Sexiness was about 3 out of 5 so it's a good read for folx who enjoy that spice.

I will be picking up more books by Nisha Sharma!!
