Tastes Like Shakkar by Nisha Sharma
3.5
I liked this one soooooo much better than Dating Dr. Dil but I was expecting way more enemies to lovers?? They gave up on their feud super early and the tension left the story along with it. The rest was this sabotage plot that was just kinda chaotic and frustrating because she wasn’t telling the bride!! But I really loved the food content and Benjamin was very hot especially while delivering the food content 😮💨
I think this maybe would’ve worked a bit better as single POV since having both really took the wind out of the E2L sails for me. Aka there was nothing surprising since we knew all their thoughts anyway. The sex scenes were also super hot but they ended abruptly and were rather short.
As for the narrators, I adore Soneela Nankani and she was fantastic here. Benjamin’s narrator was great except for the voice he chose for Bobbi…which was a bit frustrating.
Overall, I knew my issues with Dating Dr. Dil were mainly with Prem, so I was excited to give the series another try. I’m definitely happy I gave it a go and I’m very ready for book three. I was definitely scared about the third book given what we were told at the end of this one, but the summary sounds WAY more fun. I love Twelfth Night and I love accidental marriages!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️/5
I rounded down for Goodreads because I don’t think I’ll have the need to reread this, but it was still a very solid book!
