Nisha Sharma's 'If Shakespeare was an Auntie' romantic comedy books reinvent classic Shakespearean plots into modern retellings with enemies to lovers, a cast of best friends, and a gaggle of aunties determined to make a match.
 
BOOK 1 - Dating Dr. Dil:
Kareena dreams of a perfect love story like her parents had. When her widowed father announces he's selling their home, Kareena makes a deal: find her soulmate by her sister's engagement party and keep the house. Enter Dr. Prem Verma, host of the Dr. Dil Show, who only fixes broken hearts in the literal sense. After a viral on-air debate about love, dating Kareena becomes Prem's only way to save his reputation. In this Taming of the Shrew reimagination, hate slowly turns into fate.
