A dating app that hides your identity is great—until you realize who’s on the other side.

In the margarita-fueled wake of his thirtieth birthday party, small town veterinarian Matty Brodigan takes the plunge into Blinding Love, an app where pictures aren’t allowed and users are paired based on personality tests. How is he to know that the woman he matches with is his best friend’s little sister?

Goldie Dash is finally getting her life together: she’s in her own place and has a burgeoning career as a journalist. She’s probably never going to shake her crush on her sister’s best friend Matty Brodigan, but that’s okay, because she just matched with someone on Blinding Love.

Hidden behind fake names, Goldie and Matty fall for each other. It’s only when they agree to meet at a masquerade ball that Goldie realizes what’s happened, and when she finally reveals the truth to Matty, the shocked pair decide to keep their relationship under wraps while they figure out what to do.

But secrets only last so long, and soon they face a choice: play it safe and walk away, or risk it all for the love they never knew they had?

I loved this one so much. The characters are amazing, the banter is hilarious, the spice is perfect, and the witchy vibes is the perfect amount of fairy dust over the whole thing.

About Me

Valerie Pepper writes steamy romantic comedies about small towns. She's an incurable optimist and a firm believer in real-life happily ever afters, even if it takes more than one try.

 

When she’s not writing, you can find her reading, hiking, listening to whatever music suits her mood, and hanging out with her family. She’s fascinated with the idea of a capsule wardrobe, but loves clothes and shoes far too much to make a real go of it.

 

She’s currently living out her own happily ever after in Birmingham, Alabama with her family and maaaaaybe too many shoes.
