*squeal* This was a wonderful conclusion to the If Shakespeare Were an Auntie series! I loved Veera's intelligence, sense of style, and ability to embrace her emotions when it matters most. Deepak was definitely giving epic romantic lead, too. His dedication to her was intensely satisfying and I love that they had their friends input all along the way. It can be hard to meaningfully discuss strained familial relationships within cultures that value family above all else but I think Nisha Sharma did so perfectly. That topic is touchy in my culture (Caribbean/Latinx), too. 

This book was the perfect mixture of romance, culture, family drama, and finding oneself. I highly recommend the entire series!
