Hotttttt! I know this is cliche but Tastes Like Shakkar was a delicious rivals to lovers romance. Bobbi and Bunty can't stand one another, at first. Bunty thinks that Bobbi is annoying sometimes but mostly sexy as hell. Bobbi thinks Bunty is a handsome asshole because his refusal to cater a wedding made her and her family lose a huge client a few years ago. So when their besties Karina and Prem stick them together to figure out the wedding menu, Bobbi and Bunty have to figure out how to put the past behind them and their sexual tension to the side.
There quite a few racy scenes in here that I will probably never forget. Thank you, Nisha Sharma! I really enjoy the hate to love you trope and this one was so satisfying because the lovebirds are really good at arguing. They were funny and knew how to get under each other's skin.
Once again, Sharma brings the readers into her lead's family lives, too. I felt like I could understand why they felt the way they did about their situations and their issues with one another. They both feel the pressure and expectations.
I'm realllly looking forward to the next book in If Shakespeare Was an Auntie series!
