Partners in Crime

Alisha Rai2022
Indian Matchmaking meets Date Night in this fun, romantic adventure in which a match-made couple about to be engaged gets caught up in a caper that puts their future—and lives—in danger. At thirty-five, with a stable job as an accountant, Mira Chaudhary wants nothing more than to find a boring man to spend the rest of her life with. Having had enough excitement in her younger days and desperately trying to escape her dysfunctional past, she turns to a matching app specializing in Indian American singles to help her find someone to settle down with. Enter Naveen Desai. An English professor with an uneventful, normal, and—dare she say it, boring—life, Naveen is perfect. But just when things are going well, Mira receives news that her aunt has died. Suddenly a trip to Las Vegas to settle her aunt’s affairs turns into a mad dash to escape kidnappers, evade art thieves, and consorting with hackers who can decipher just what it was Mira’s aunt was involved with. Mira just hopes that Naveen isn’t chased away by the very same life of “excitement” that she’s been trying to get away from. But maybe, over the course of one wild night, Mira and Naveen will find the love connection that neither expected.

If you liked Something Wilder, this should be your next read! The twists were never ending, the banter was great, the whole story was chefs kiss

This book is a wild ride.

Less of a romance and more of a wacky adventure but it was fun and engaging.

Whatever action you’re taking, take it toward something you want instead of running away from something you don’t. You might get better results.”

“Have you always had this huge amount of unearned confidence?”

“Yes. It comes with being a man.

The last one kept going on and on about wanting a partner in crime, until I informed him I was looking purely for a partner in legal activities. I cannot have someone who relies that strongly on silly clichés. It’s a turnoff.
