What if the perfect match is a perfect surprise?
Honor Holland has just been unceremoniously rejected by her lifelong crush. And now—a mere three weeks later—Mr. Perfect is engaged to her best friend. But resilient, reliable Honor is going to pick herself up, dust herself off and get back out there
or she would if dating in Manningsport, New York, population 715, wasn’t easier said than done.
Charming, handsome British professor Tom Barlow just wants to do right by his unofficial stepson, Charlie, but his visa is about to expire. Now Tom must either get a green card or leave the States—and leave Charlie behind.
In a moment of impulsiveness, Honor agrees to help Tom with a marriage of convenience—and make her ex jealous in the process. But juggling a fiancé, hiding out from her former best friend and managing her job at the family vineyard isn’t easy. And as sparks start to fly between Honor and Tom, they might discover that their pretend relationship is far too perfect to be anything but true love
REVIEW:
I’m in love! Yes, with the Perfect Match!
Kristan Higgins creates another masterpiece taking us to the lovely Finger Lakes region again, this time delighting us with Honor’s story, a heroine who puts others first, a workaholic member of the Holland family and considers herself average, compared to her younger sister Faith, from The Best Man.
Honor just turned 35 and desperately wants to marry and have a family before her ovaries die of old age (quite a hoot in the story!)
Tom Barlow (sigh) a hunky British mechanical engineer, currently teaching in college finds his working visa is about to expire. He needs to find a way to stay in order to care for his ex-fiancee’s son, a teenage who’s struggling after losing his mom.
Honors grandmother tries to hook these two up, but will they be able to pull off an arranged marriage?
As every one of Higgins stories, I found myself laughing with her creative ways and characters, even references to one of my childhood favorite characters! I swooned with Tom and Honor’s romantic encounters, those kisses, the kind you feel butterflies in your tummy! Also, cried in tender and heartwarming scenes. And, let’s not forget her adorable pets! Spike was quite the character, giving Tom (ehem!) lots of love, in her own special way.
The Holland family and friends were so entertaining and funny! There’s more drama and suspense in this one, too.
When I read any story by Kristan Higgins, it’s a sure bet I’ll be up all night until the book is done, leaving me with a smile.
