A Match in the Making by Jen Turano

 




Hold on to your hats! As always one of the most hilarious books you'll read.  And so, so touching, heartrending, full of wisdom. We don't always realize the path we take is sending us in exactly the right direction. Gwendolyn needs a break from travelling and being a companion for her cousin, so she decides to be an assistant matchmaker in a resort area where the 400 go. She's pushed to find matches for society people that she doesn't like and who shun her, even though her family is as good as theirs. She's not doing it for the money. She meets a lot of people - you may need to keep a pad and pencil nearby to keep them all straight by the way. She always sees right through situations and knows exactly the right thing to do and say to straighten others out. Jen's typical madcap story that will keep you riveted to the wonderfully satisfying end. The chaos may not let you relax, but you'll surely get completely lost in it!! Another keeper.

The Telegraph Proposal by Gina Welborn; Becca Whitham

 




Growing pains. 
It's good to go back to this town and these people. Yancey has loved Hale for years, but he's always tried to avoid her attention. They both turn to a matrimonial agency, with unexpected results. The town has a murder mystery that needs to be solved. The story is very well told, as usual. I felt connected right to the end. Excellent story! There is both good and bad in many situations, their faith carries them through.

What a special little town where everyone is good hearted and watches out for then others. Oh that's not to say that they aren't a little rough around the edges, but each is endearing. Founded by mostly single men, a bunch if them decide to send to a matchmaker for brides.

Helena wants to be sure that her brides are well cared for before she sends them out. Usually she can correspond to make this determination, but with this many men it is easier to pay a visit with her assistant. Neither of them expect the experience to be as it ends up! Wonderful read to get totally lost in for awhile.
