Arranged / Catherine McKenzie.
"Anne Blythe has a great life: a good job, good friends and a potential book deal for her first novel. When it comes to finding someone to share it with, however, she just can<U+2019>t seem to get it right. After yet another relationship ends, Anne comes across a business card for what she thinks is a dating service, and she pockets it just in case. When her best friend, Sarah, announces she<U+2019>s engaged, Anne can<U+2019>t help feeling envious. On an impulse, she decides to give the service a try because maybe she could use a little assistance in finding the right man. But Anne soon discovers the company isn<U+2019>t a dating service; it<U+2019>s an exclusive, and pricey, arranged marriage service. She initially rejects the idea, but the more she thinks about it <U+2013> and the company<U+2019>s success rate <U+2013> the more it appeals to her. After all, arranged marriages are the norm for millions of women around the world, so why wouldn<U+2019>t it work for her? A few months later, Anne is travelling to a Mexican resort where in one short weekend she will meet and marry Jack. And against all odds, it seems to be working out <U+2013> until Anne learns that Jack and the company that arranged their marriage are not what they seem at all."--Inside cover flap.
