The Singles Table
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
After a devastating break-up, celebrity-obsessed lawyer Zara Patel is determined never to open her heart again. She puts her energy into building her career and helping her friends find their happily-ever-afters. She's never faced a guest at the singles table she couldn’t match, until she crosses paths with the sinfully sexy Jay Dayal.
Former military security specialist Jay has no time for love. His life is about working hard, staying focused, and winning at all costs. When charismatic Zara crashes into his life, he's thrown into close contact with exactly the kind of chaos he wants to avoid. Worse, they're stuck together for the entire wedding season.
So they make a deal. She'll find his special someone if he introduces her to his celebrity clients. But when their arrangement brings them together in ways they never expected, they realize that the perfect match might just be their own.

Starred review from July 26, 2021
Desai does it again in her latest San Francisco–set rom-com starring the lively, eccentric Patel family (after The Dating Plan). Zara Patel, an impulsive, celebrity-obsessed personal injury lawyer with a penchant for playing matchmaker, loves romance—for other people. Her parents’ devastating divorce has made her both crave intimacy and flee from it. So when she finds herself powerfully attracted to Jay Dayal, a rigid Air Force veteran, at a mutual friend’s joint bachelor-bachelorette paintball party, her response is to shoot him in the butt. As an apology, she offers to matchmake for Jay, who agrees, wanting to please his single mother, who’s urging him to date more—but the strong chemistry between Zara and Jay quickly leads them to abandon this plan in favor of sizzling-hot sex. However, when Zara’s first celebrity client demands she go after Jay’s security startup for failing to protect him from a threat, the clash of professional and personal ambitions threatens the relationship neither of them claim to want but both desperately need. Zara and Jay are a refreshingly self-aware pair, and it’s eminently satisfying to see them not just address their business conflicts but seek professional psychological help, Zara for her fear of abandonment and Jay for PTSD. Desai’s fans will be delighted. Agent: Laura Bradford, Bradford Literary.

- content: Quirky, hilarious, and romantic, this is the perfect story for narrator Soneela Nankani. When lawyer and matchmaker Zara Patel and military security expert Jay Dayal meet at a bachelor/bachelorette paintball game, their opposite personalities clash instantly in a laugh-out-loud way. Nankani's timing is spot-on, and she perfectly voices Zara's enthusiasm, Jay's seriousness, and the various characteristics of all of their friends and family--expertly transitioning between the multidimensional characters. When Zara agrees to find a match for Jay if he will introduce her to his celebrity clients, hilarity ensues, and they find that they themselves just might be an unexpected match. The story includes steamy, explicit scenes, so some listening situations may call for earbuds. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
