Playing with Matches: A Novel

Named a Best Book of Summer by Refinery 29, Bustle, and PopSugar

â‚¬Å“The best rom-com of the seasonâ‚¬Â¦overflowing with charm and heart.â‚¬Ââ‚¬"Bustle

â‚¬Å“The perfect Summer readâ‚¬"smart, funny, escapist, and bursting with charm.â‚¬Ââ‚¬"PopSugar

In the tradition of Good in Bed and The Assistants comes a funny and smart comedy about a young matchmaker balancing her messy personal life and the demands of her eccentric clients.

Sasha Goldberg has a lot going for her: a recent journalism degree from NYU, an apartment with her best friend Caroline, and a relationship that would be amazing if her finance-bro boyfriend Jonathan would ever look up from his BlackBerry. But when her dream career falls through, she uses her familyâ‚¬s darkest secret to land a job as a matchmaker for New York Cityâ‚¬s elite at the dating service Bliss.

Despite her inexperience, Sasha throws herself into her new career, trolling for catches on Tinder, coaching her clients through rejection, and dishing out dating advice to people twice her age. She sets up a TV exec who wanted kids five years ago, a forty-year-old baseball-loving virgin, and a consultant with a rigorous five-page checklist for her ideal match.

Sasha hopes to find her clients The One, like she did. But when Jonathan betrays her, she spirals out of controlâ‚¬"and right into the arms of a writer with a charming Southern drawl, who she had previously set up with one of her clients. Heâ‚¬s strictly off-limits, but with her relationship on the rocks, all bets are off.

Fresh, sweet, and laugh-out-loud funny, Playing with Matches is the addictive story about dating in todayâ‚¬s swipe-heavy society, and a young woman trying to find her own place in the world.
