The Right Swipe, by Alisha Rai

Oooh dang, this is really good. I finished it nearly a week ago though, and I didn't write down my thoughts right away and I am regretting that! Let's see what I can pull out of my memory.

Featuring: A woman who created a popular dating app, and an ex-football player who once ghosted her! I loved both of the lead characters, and I really believed in both their interest in each other and in the issues that keep their relationship from being smooth sailing from the start.

I also really liked the way that major issues within both of their fields of work are integrated into the story - sexual harassment issues and the significant long-term effects of repeated concussions. Both of these issues are ones I care about deeply too and the book did a great job at its depiction of both, and I really appreciated the spotlight.

And, as I've also appreciated about past Alisha Rai novels I've read, the lead characters are each well-integrated into a larger community of people they care about, instead of existing in a vacuum with only each other. I cared a lot about all the various people in each of the leads' lives! (yes I am avoiding using any character names in this entire review, you think I can manage to hold onto names for an entire week without forgetting them??)

Basically: WHAT A GOOD. Lives up to everything I was hoping for from it, and more!
