The Right Swipe by Alisha Rai
4.0
The Right Swipe has a lot going on in one book. Rhi is the successful CEO of a dating app (think Bumble) that she founded. She’s been pursuing the reclusive owner of a more traditional dating site, Matchmaker (think eHarmony/Match) in the interest of purchasing it and expanding her brand.
When she goes to a Matchmaker party in hopes of connecting with the CEO - she is shocked to see the new spokesperson for the site is Samson - the man she had one great date with months ago - and then he ghosted her.
This book covers a lot of topics - the business dealings between the various dating companies, professional football and CTE, sexual harassment, speaking up and believing women when they do. All of these topics were handled well - but I did feel it pushed the romance to a smaller role side plot rather than the key focus. This isn’t necessarily bad - but good to know if you are going into it expecting a more traditional romance where their relationship is really the bulk of the story.
Thank you very much to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy in exchange for my honest review.
