Thank you NetGalley and the author for this ARC!

I was entertained with this book! It was a good read and I would absolutely recommend reading it to my friends. Quick easy read for me. Absolutely loved this romcom!

I had such a good time reading this story that I immediately went out and bought the first book in this series, Dating Dr. Dil,

Bobbi and Benjamin were delightfully explosive in the midst of an Indian wedding.

Plus size rep for the win!

Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager and Netgalley for providing an eARC for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this opposites attract romance!

Bobbi and Benjamin struck sparks off each other when they met - and then he stuck his foot in his mouth and ruined it before it could even begin.

They’ve been circling each other like sharks looking for blood in the water ever since. Until they have to declare a truce and work together to make sure the wedding of their best friends is the best day ever.

Full review to come on my blog and Amazon the week of release.

If you enjoyed the first book in the series Dating Dr. Dil, then you will love this installment!
This story follows a wedding planner and chef as they try to plan a wedding for their best friends. This story was so fun! I really enjoyed the banter between the characters and the plus sized representation. The plot was really enjoyable, as the main characters are tasked with determining who is trying to sabotage the wedding! This forces them to put aside their past and work together to save the day for their friends.
I enjoyed this book immensely, and I can’t wait to read book 3 in the series!

I adore all of the characters but I loved Benjamin and Bobbi. Their banter and chemistry were immaculate. The communication between them was *chef kiss*. There was a third-act breakup, even though the reasoning behind it was understandable and done well. I was hoping it wouldn't happen but it did.
The aunties have my entire heart, whenever they show up in a chapter, I'll probably end the chapter laughing.
The subplot with the Shaadi Saboteur was amazing. I never knew who it was going to be and the reveal was so well done
Finally, I love the Easter eggs about Veera & Deepak. I can’t wait for their story and I hope it's a marriage of convenience.
Thank you to Avon and Harper Voyager and NetGalley for an arc in exchange for a review.

Bobbi is planning the wedding of her best friend Kareena and wants it to go off without a hitch. She also has sparks flying with Benjamin (Bunty), and he is weaseling his way into her heart. Soon - someone starts messing with the Kareena’s wedding and it’s up to Bobbi, Bunty, and the aunties to find out what’s going on.

This book was unexpected - in a good way! Loved the plus size representation of a main character, and I did like the “enemies to lovers” though they did seem to hate other pretty quick for no reason. It’s been awhile since I read the first book but I don’t remember anything about these two.

The spicy scenes are pretty good and the banter is great. I loved the text messages back and forth - they were so cute to show the growth in the relationship. This book was a little cheesy, but what’s love without cheese? Nice ending and now I want to read Vera’s story!

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Sexy chef and badass wedding planner make the perfect dynamic duo in this frenemies to lovers rom com. This is the second book in the series and I would recommend reading the first, Dating Dr. Dil, before diving into this one to truly appreciate it. Bobbi and Benjamin’s banter is phenomenal and the spice is even better. These two are tasked with planning the best wedding for their best friends while someone is trying to sabotage the whole thing. This book will make you hungry, make you laugh, and make you wish you had meddling aunties! This was an ARC read given for an honest review.

This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I absolutely adored the first in the series and I the 3rd book has been on my TBR since Dating Dr Dil came out. Nisha Sharma has done it again. I loved the background being the wedding of Kareena and Prem. I felt like this book really furthered the characters along and set up the nest novel nicely. And can we talk about the representation? Plus size love interests in romance are always fantastic to see (I knew it would be good when I read the dedication). I loved the chemistry between the characters, and the spice of course. I felt that there was a good balance between the main couple, finishing the story of the first couple, and introducing the 3rd couple. None felt like they were overpowering the other, which is a common thing I see in interconnected standalone novels like this one.

My only issue with the novel is the amount of exposition and allusion to the first book. For a novel that is allegedly an interconnected standalone, I felt that too much was repeated to the reader to make them see the connection (or maybe influence them to read) the first book in the series. There was a lot of repetition that felt unnecessary, and it didn't seem to end until at least halfway into the book.

All that being said, I cannot wait to see where all these characters end up in the third book. I love this series.

loved this romance and enemies to lovers . loved that family was a topic and friends were an important part of the relationships. I didn't know that this was based on much ado about nothing. Loved seeing them stand up to to family for their relationship.

I adored this book so, so much! Returning to the “If Shakespeare was an Auntie” universe is always such a pleasure.

This sequel was so amusing and funny I found myself highlighting even more comedic moments than the romantic ones. I love the dynamic between Bobbi and Bunty and their friend group! The found family, touch of mystery, and forced proximity are all amazing aspects of this story.

Bunty and Bobbi’s chemistry had me hooked from the beginning and I couldn’t help but to root for them both! Getting to see Prem and Kareena living their best lives and planning their wedding was an added treat!

Something that rang true in both this novel and Dating Dr. Dil is the unapologetic devotion of culture and tradition while still being modern. Getting immersed in this culture makes me even more excited to read Veera’s story.

Thank you so much to Net Galley, Nisha Sharma and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Indian Aunties and weddings is top tier comedy. I wish this series was turned into Bollywood movies because it would be laugh out loud funny. Bunty and Bobbi were both strong characters and compared to many romcoms were very mature. I read The Man Ban recently and fell in love and wanted more and this book gave me more Indian weddings and enemies to lovers. I liked the pace and the Aunties meddling made this book even better.

Yes - 100% yes!!
I absolutely loved Dating Dr. Dil and was so excited to read Tastes Like Shakkar - and holy smokes it was amazing!! It had everything I love in a romantic comedy - it’s hilarious, sexy, fun, spicy and lighthearted (while also tackling serious topics) wrapped up in an enemies to lovers with a bit of mystery and an amazing friend group package!

10/10 recommend this series!! I’m so excited to see where Nisha Sharma will take the story with her next book!

Thank you so much to Avon & NetGalley for the advanced copy.

Despite the overwhelming wash, rinse repeat of the plot I'd come to expect. This was a fairly decent read. Loved the characters and the sexy dialogue.

What to expect? He falls first and harder.

Nisha did out do herself in this one. Its just the right amount of plot, romance, smut and laughs. I can not find the words to explain how much I love this book and Bunty and Bobbi. I was rooting for them the whole damn time. I. was crying but the end because I love them both so much and I just wanted their happiness.

When I find the words, I'll add to this review.

Nisha Sharma does not disappoint! Bobbi's and Benjamin's 'Bunty' story takes place during the leadup to Kareena and Prem's wedding. Not exactly enemies to lovers, but two people who run in the same circle and THINK they don't like each other. The tension was palpable, the spice was A+, and the side of mystery was fun and expected!

Five stars! This was sexy, funny and just emotional enough. I had a fantastic time reading this and am awaiting book 3!

I LOVED Dating Dr. Dil, so when I heard there was going to be a prequel I had to get my hands on it as soon as possible and boy, this book did not disappoint. I somehow devoured this book even faster than I did D3.

This book followed Bobbi and Bunty, who are Kareena and Prem's best friends respectively, and I adored these two characters. Individually they were amazing people, and together, they were fire. The chemistry between them was so strong and their spicy scenes were top-notch. A desi romance with bondage? SIGN ME UP. The spice, the humor, the heart - it was all there. I loved every second of this book and will probably love every adult romance Nisha Sharma puts out from this point on.

Can't wait for Veera's book next!

I am obsessed with this book. The depth and love between these two characters were so sweet. This is a wonderful, cozy story that just feels warm to the heart.

**Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!**

No one does Desi like Nisha Sharma and I mean that with my whole heart. The fact that the book focused on the culture surrounding everything about being Indian — from the weddings, the community, the random drama, the gossiping, and the religiousness to the culture and focus on family and sticking together — is honestly so rare to see nowadays, even in Desi romcom books. A lot of the times those books tend to focus just on the romantic relationship and familial pressures rather than the entirety of Indian culture.

This was such a fun book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I'm not even going to lie, for the first few chapters, my brain kept playing the theme song from the movie "Bunty Aur Babli" and kept going "Bunty Aur Bobbi" :D

I absolutely loved Dating Dr.Dil so I was thrilled to be able to read an ARC of the second book in this trilogy. You don't need to read the first one before this one but it would help with the back story.

In this book, we are following Bobbi and Bunty. Their best friends are getting married and they have been thrown together to help plan the wedding and cater the food. Along the way, we see how they went from enemies to lovers. This was such a good read!
