The Matchmaker's List by Sonya Lalli

"Raina Anand may have finally given in to family pressure and agreed to let her grandmother play matchmaker, but that doesn't mean she has to like it--or that she has to play by the rules. Nani always took Raina's side when she tried to push past the traditional expectations of their tight-knit Indian-immigrant community, but now she's ambushing Raina with a list of suitable bachelors. Is it too much to ask for a little space? Besides, what Nani doesn't know won't hurt her...As Raina's life spirals into a parade of Nani-approved bachelors and disastrous blind dates, she must find a way out of this modern-day arranged-marriage trap without shattering her beloved grandmother's dreams." (Goodreads.com)

This was a funny and charming romance book that kept me guessing who the main character, Raina, would end up with. Not only was this book about romance but also about the importance of family and friends. I would recommend this as a great summer reading book and beach read.
