I enjoyed this. The conflict was set up beautifully and had me stressed. There were a smattering of cackles from me while reading this book and had some major giggles during the grand gesture. Wish we got some more depth from other characters than just Olive (FMC) but they were all fun regardless.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this read. Absolutely loved the characters and their interactions.(MMC fell so hard immediately hehehe) They were well written and complex, and the MCs had amazing character development throughout the book. The town history was also a fun addition to the overall story. This book was deceptively long due to font size but pacing flowed well. Overall, a fun read that I thoroughly enjoyed.

This was a fun read with great enemies to lovers pacing. Ending was predictable but very satisfying so I'm not complaining haha. Overall - a nice, easy, and fun read.

I normally LOVE Tessa Baileys books but this one just missed the mark for me. Didn't connect with the MCs all that much and it felt like nothing really happened for the first 200 pages. The first two books in this series I enjoyed and I do like the characters that will be the MCs in the remaining two so I have positive hopes for the next books.

I enjoyed this book. Pacing was very fast so it was a quick and fun read. Plus- the characters all had complex backgrounds and interpersonal relationships with eachother that created a fun world to dive into. The ending was satisfying but the fast pace made it feel like the author was checking off boxes for a satisfying conclusion. Overall, this read was funny, quick, and interesting.

Sharma does it again. This entire series was 5 stars for me. Love the MCs in this one. Accidental marriage and friends to lovers tropes are always a good time. I felt all the emotions as I was reading this and couldn't put the book down. Ending was so satisfying and the only thing that I missed was an epilogue. Highly recommend this whole series!

Another 5 star from Sharma! I laughed all throughout and was at the edge of my seat regarding the mystery plotline. Loved the two MCs and I was so happy to still get plenty of the couple from the first book. This book also did a wonderful job at building a whole world around the MCs backstories that was compelling and complex. We got satisfying conclusions, a very sweet ending, and an epilogue that has me running for book 3.

Really enjoyed this read. I loved all the characters and immediately empathized with Kareena (FMC). And I loved the interactions between her and Prem (MMC). The side characters were great too so definitely interested in the next book in series. I laughed all throughout this book. And my word, the ending had me giggling up a storm. Overall, just a good time and looking forward to book 2 !

Another outrageous and hilarious plot from Sutanto that immediately grabs you and doesn't let go until the final word. Meddy has grown so much through this series and I loved seeing her being strong in the final book! Ending was a fun and fitting conclusion.
