Why read it?
1 author picked The Matchmaker's Playbook as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This story was a funny, sexy romance and I loved the slow-burn as Ian falls for a woman, Blake, who is off-limits for a number of reasons. I also really loved the banter between the characters. Maybe it’s because I’m a speech pathologist, but I absolutely love dialogue in the books I read. I think it quickens the pace of the book and can reveal so much about the characters.
Although the plot was fairly simple, this book was so much fun, and it ticked all the boxes for me!
From Alyssa's list on The best books about makeover romances.
