From New York Times bestselling author Sandhya Menon comes a delightful enovella sequel to When Dimple Met Rishi and Thereβs Something about Sweetie, about a Valentineβs Day group date gone hilariously, disastrously awry.
Ashish Patel has never considered himself a hopeless romantic. But now that heβs found his other half, Sweetie Nair, thereβs nothing he wants more than to celebrate love in all its forms. So when Valentineβs Day rolls around and he hears about a romance-themed escape room, he knows itβs the perfect opportunity to bring together Sweetie along with his newly engaged brother and sister-in-law-to-be, Rishi Patel and Dimple Shah.
On their way to the escape room, the group runs into Pinky Kumar and Samir Jhaβboth friends to Ashish but nemeses to each other. Despite Pinkyβs kneejerk reaction to the cheesy theme (which gets her a high-five from Dimple), the two of them agree to join the group.
The escape room is as insufferably saccharine as Pinky feared, but even she is surprised when she and Samir actuallyβ¦work well together. Samir embodies everything Pinky despisesβfollowing rules, having no fun, consuming single-use plastics. Getting along with someone like himβa shiny Volvo when sheβs so used to junkersβsends Pinky into a tailspin.
Sparks are definitely flying, but itβs unclear if thatβs a good thing. Could this be love at first fight?
