Review:

"The Perfect Match" by Kristan Higgins was a sweet contemporary romance that has women's fiction and chick lit written all over it. This is a interesting story of Honor Holland who was a middle child from a good family. Honor's family owned the 'Blue Heron Vineyards and she worked and lived on the property with her dog. All was good for Honor...for she was in her mid thirties, had been in love with someone who did not love her....now she yearned for a family of her own.  So, when a this 'British guy' (friend) needed a 'green card' to be able to stay in the US to work and maintain the upkeep of his stepson (Charlie)...will she be willing to help Tom Barlow out my marrying him? Really?  Now, who did she get this information from?...Would you believe from Honor's grandmother!

Now, to really see what is going on you will have to pick up this good read: "The Perfect Match" to see how this author brings it all together.  We find Tom the Englishman very full of humor(with tattoo on his shoulders) that you will find yourself laughing out loud from the read and I will add that he is hot! For Honor... I smiled at the eggs that actually spoke to her. You will find out all about that from the read.   I  enjoyed how the author was able to keep this read a PG romance. Be ready for 'heartbreak, romance and humor.'  We find from the read that Honor had stayed after her mother died to help pick up the pieces and had become the perfect daughter but now she  was wanting something else in her life.  Would there a attraction growing between her and Tom? Will Honor  fall in love with Tom and 'what happens when the man she  loved refuses to believe he has the capacity to love you back?'

There was a very serious side to this novel and that was about the stepson Charlie who Tom so desperately wanted to help.  Why was Charlie so angry and sad?  Truly Tom loves the boy.  I found the characters all so interesting as well as captivating with some of their craziness and dramatic moments that will have you laughing at from it all.


If you are looking for a sweet romance of a 'tight knit family' you have come to the right place for this author bring it all to the reader and I would recommend "The Perfect Match" as a good read.
