From "one of the most exciting breakout novelists" (USA TODAY) comes the first novel in an irresistible new series-a spin-off of the bestselling Marriage to a Billionaire series-featuring a matchmaker who falls for a man who doesn't believe in love.
First in a sizzling new series from Jennifer Probst, the USA Today bestselling author adored for her "fresh, fun, and sexy" (Romancing the Book) storytelling!
In charming Verily, New York, Kate Seymour has a smashing success with Kinnections, the matchmaking service she owns with her two best girlfriends. But Kate's more than a savvy businesswoman: She's gifted with a secret power, a jolting touch that signals when love's magic is at work. It rocked her when she picked up a strange volume of love spells in the town's used bookstore . . . and it zapped her again when she encountered Slade Montgomery, the hot-tempered- and hot-bodied-divorce lawyer who storms into Kinnections demanding proof that playing Cupid won't destroy his vulnerable sister, Kate's newest client. The only way to convince this cynic that she's no fraud, and that love is no mirage, is for Kate to meet his audacious challenge: find him his dream woman. Can Kate keep their relationship strictly business when her electrifying attraction nearly knocked her off her feet? Or has the matchmaker finally met her match?
The matchmaker becomes the matched in Searching for Someday by Jennifer Probst. Kate Seymour owns a matchmaking company with her two good friends, and part of the secret to her success is her gift of feeling a “spark” when two people are supposed to be together. When she is confronted by divorce lawyer Slade Montgomery, who believes the company is scamming his little sister, she sets out to prove him wrong.
Jennifer Probst provides a charming love story between two people who on the surface seem to have very little in common. Slade is jaded in romance, he is a divorce lawyer and he has been through a divorce himself, and is very much a believer in statistics. Kate is a bit of a contradiction. She is trying to prove Slade wrong by finding him the perfect date but she doesn’t believe in love for herself. Although it was a quick, interesting read there was nothing that really stood out for me; it was like other romance stories except with an added group of interesting secondary characters that I would be interested in reading about.
