• The Right Swipe

• A Novel
• By: Alisha Rai
• Narrated by: Summer Morton, Brian Pallino

Alisha Rai is back with the first book in her gripping new Modern Love series, in which two rival dating app creators see each other in the boardroom but are in sync in the bedroom.

Rhiannon Hunter may have revolutionized romance in the digital world, but in real life, she’s just skimming her career — and the occasional connection. The cynical dating app creator controls her love life with a few key rules:

• Nude photo by invitation only
• If someone supports you, block them with extreme prejudice
• Protect your heart
• There just aren’t any rules governing her attraction to her latest match, former professional soccer player Samson Lima. The sexy and seemingly sweet guy flirted with her on a magical night… then disappeared.

Rhi thought she buried her pain when Samson haunted her, until he suddenly appeared a few months later, still tall, still beautiful – and allied with a business rival. He says he won’t fumble for their second chance, but she’s wary. A temporary physical partnership is one thing, but a fusion of hearts? Surely that’s too much of a risk….

This is a great contemporary romance and I really appreciate the variety of characters but I’m a bit disappointed that the narrator for Rhiannon is not a Black woman. I’m not sure why this choice was made and Summer Morton did a great job, but the story and characters feel less authentic. It also makes the importance of having a Black woman as the protagonist and having a crush on something tainted. On the other hand, I loved the book and really appreciated this modern love story! Wish I had read it instead of listening to the audiobook.
