I absolutely loved Sarah Monzon's author voice in All's Fair in Love and Christmas and I was eager to read An Overdue Match. Two chapters into this book I had a gut feeling I was going to like this story a lot!
Hopeless romantic at heart, librarian Evangeline Kelly sees herself as more of a secondary character rather than the heroine after her ex-fiancé calls off their wedding because of her alopecia. What's a girl who's in love with love to do? Play matchmaker among the library patrons like Emma in Jane Austen.
Tatoo artist, Tai Davis accustomed to people judging him. The town's new librarian think he has a bad-boy reputation, he can't help but be fascinated by Evangeline and when he discovers her secret matchmaking scheme, he strikes a deal with her. Every time she uses his hometown knowledge she has to agree to a date with him.
An Overdue Match is a sweet he falls first; opposites attract contemporary romance that'll tickle your funny bone and warm your heart.
I liked that Evangeline learned to be confidence with her diagnosis of alopecia. I can't image what this is like, but I found myself sympathizing with her and cheering her on, wanting her to realize her own worth.
Hero Tai Davis is pretty swoon-worthy. One trait about Tai that I found especially humorous is all the nicknames he doles out to Evangeline. I liked that he sees and accepts Evangeline for who she is and isn't this what we all want?
An Overdue Match is a solid 5 stars that will stay with you long after you've closed the book. You'll laugh a lot and maybe cry a little.
I'm excited to read more books by Sarah Monzon in her Checking Out Love series.
Reading is an adventure,
Emilee
