Feel like I read it in the last 90s/early 00s-
A book about a group of teenage girls in high school who have to start a business? And the leader of them decides to start a matchmaking service. Students filled in personality sheets and were matched; I think the main character was matched with her (ex??) stepbrother, and they end up getting together at the end.

I remember vaguely the group going to a farm, or to ride horses? Definitely a conversation about brushing your eyebrows.

I feel like 'cupid' may have been in the title, but that hasn't helped me much.

Cover: I remember it being pink, maybe having a silhouette, someone holding a piece of burnt paper?

Read in Australia.

Possibly The Matchmakers by Jean Ure? Although I don't think it matches that closely.

Playing Cupid by Jenny Meyerhoff? It has the Business Ed angle, but might be too recent.

I am positive that I have read this too, but am blanking on it. I don't think it is Stupid Cupid by Rhonda Stapleton, but am browsing through some of the recommendations as that feels about the same time I read it.

>7 Caramellunacy: Oh my gosh, I JUST FOUND IT!! I decided to search for specifically Australian books, as some of the recs in the link you sent were so clearly 'Americany'.

Did you read this too?!?!
