Love could be a click away… Or in the last place you expected.
When Fran meets Ollie, it’s eye roll at first sight. Who does he think he is – with his Ray-Bans, piss taking and artfully styled hair? Forced into working together at Viral Hive, the trendy media … Forced into working together at Viral Hive, the trendy media content agency, at first they butt heads, but soon realise that they could be BFFs. Fran’s happily settled with boyfriend Lucas, while Ollie is fully committed to girlfriend Lou.
But when Fran’s relationship crumbles, and Ollie sets off with Lou for a round-the-world trip, she decides to start an anonymous dating column, detailing all the perils of dating online – from the bloke who angrily demanded she share the bill when she refused his clumsy advances, to the one that ended their date by weeping into her cleavage – even if it seems that all the good (or even normal?) men are hiding. Maybe there aren’t plenty more fish in the sea?
But, on her dating journey of discovery, Fran’s about to learn that sometimes love can be where you least expect it… you just have to put down your phone.
This hilarious romantic comedy is When Harry Met Sally for the Tinder age – will make you laugh and cry! Perfect for fans of Mhairi MacFarlane, Lucy Vine and Sophie Ranald.

REVIEW
I’m so glad my dating days were during the prehistoric era when people actually met in person and had a real conversation. Maybe I’m just old (fortyish), but the whole swipe this way or that way concept is ludicrous and superficial to me. I’m in the middle about this book, Swipe Right. On one hand, it’s a cute entertaining story that is basically a romcom. There are humorous moments and serious moments. Fran and Ollie are interesting characters. Fran is sympathetic but frustrating because she needs to stand up for herself and be clear about her intentions in life. Ollie is not completely likeable, and he didn’t grow on me like characters do sometimes. He was too modern, too aloof and kind of a jerk at times. On the other hand, the story is slow going and the plot seemed all over the place with the character’s relationship constantly changing. It was too much for me personally. I like a simpler story, but other readers like complicated and will love this aspect. It just boils down to preference. I would recommend trying Swipe Right if you enjoy modern romcoms. The story is not bad, but it’s not my favorite.
A great romantic comedy about young adults who are looking for love in places where love has nothing to do with.
For some people, online dating is working out but for many it doesn’t and that makes them more aware of their friends and how most of them are living a very superficial life.
I laughed out loud many times and I can totally understand the sarcasm in other scenes and I will recommend this book for an easy, funny and light story that many people will enjoy.
This wasn’t a bad book,it just wasn’t for me.There’s nothing about it that I hated but there were few things I really didn’t like. I couldn’t connect with characters and I couldn’t see the chemistry between Fran and Ollie.
Most of the time I liked Fran’s character. She is unapologetically herself, smart and confident, but at the same time she was self-centered and selfish. I really didn’t like Ollie. He was just as selfish as Fran and his actions confused me most of the time. I liked their workplace,Fran’s roommate Suze and I enjoyed reading about all the dates Fran went to. They were really entertaining and the most interesting part of this book for me.
I didn’t like this book as much as I thought I would but I’m sure that someone else will, so don’t let my review stop you from giving it a chance and reading it.
