The Merry Matchmaker

"Sparkles with warmth, wit, and a sweet helping of holiday charm! The perfect stocking stuffer for readers who crave all the holiday feels and a happy ending!" --Rachel Linden, bestselling author of The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie Inspired by Jane Austen´s Emma, this joyful Christmas romp tells the story of a woman who can´t stop trying to help everyone around her find their happily-ever-after--even when her help leads to disaster. Frankie Lane knows what´s best for just about everyone but herself. Her divorced sister, Stef, who is too young to give up on love; her shy employee, Elinor; and her daughter, Natalie, who works in Frankie´s shop, Holiday Happiness, and really needs to start her own business selling the delectаble chocolates she makes at home; even her best friend, Viola, who is trying to renovate her old Victorian. Frankie knows she could help all of them, if they´d just let her--and if all of her help didn´t end in utter disaster. Then there´s Mitch Howard, the owner of the local hardware store. They´ve been friends ever since Frankie opened her store, nine years earlier. He got her through the nightmare when she lost her husband in a freak accident, and he´s her favorite shoulder to cry on. He´s been divorced for years, and it´s such a waste of man! Mitch is the fittest, finest man Frankie knows. He´s easygoing, wise and kindhearted. Mitch needs someone. And she´s determined to help him find that someone--whether he likes it or not.
