REVIEW: Wendy Million has outdone herself! She has written many books that I have totally enjoyed but, Miss Matched was total fun. This book is unique. The premise of the dating game is a little twisted and I think you will have as much fun with this book as I did. I don’t think you can go wrong. This is a perfect beach read! I didn’t go to the beach and enjoyed it anyway!
The one thing I found really interesting is the setting. It is Grand Rapids, Michigan which I will be visiting very soon. I’m from the area and excited to go for a visit. There is also a part of the book that takes place in Scotland. I have a little Scottish blood and it seems any book that takes place there is a draw for me.
The main characters in the book are Tayla and Simon. Tayla is a Veterinarian and Simon is a nurse. The book is told from both of their points of view. They rotate chapters and the story moves along giving you the viewpoint of each of them. I found this really helpful. I liked knowing the man’s point of view. Tayla is very grounded and trying to make wise decisions but, women often navigate with the heart.
There were times I wanted to knock both characters in the head to see if I could straighten out their thought processes. You know, I think we have all been there. Some life decisions are hard and you have to go with the flow until you know exactly the path you want to take.
A little warning…there are some romantic scenes in the book. If you’ve read anything by Wendy Million, you know what I mean. They weren’t too explicit. They were more on the adult romantic side.
If you like books that pull your heartstrings and yet are fun to read, this might just be your next read. I sometimes like lighthearted books for spring and summer. This one did the trick and I highly recommend it. Until next time…Happy Reading!

SYNOPSIS: When matchmaking software pairs a woman with her worst ex, she gets a unique second chance to connect with the love of her life.
After years of bad dates, Tayla Murphy has decided it’s finally time she found her ideal partner, so she pays a hefty fee for a cutting-edge “soulmate” matching service. But the infallible algorithm must have a serious glitch, because it pairs her with the one man on Earth she never wants to see again: Simon—the man who left her heart in pieces when he broke off their engagement six years ago. Tayla would rather cut her losses, but if she’s going to move forward with her life, she needs the money back.
Then Simon shows up on her doorstep, promising Tayla he can get her a refund by showing the service that the match was wrong. But he wants her to really prove they aren’t meant to be—by dating him for the next month. Even though he thinks the service is a fraud, Simon has been desperate for a second chance with Tayla ever since he messed up their shot at happily-ever-after. They still have an amazing connection, but a lot has happened in the time they were apart. So is this a mismatch or a perfect match?
Another great review.
I’ve really slowed down on requests from NetGalley finally. I did get two this week but they are two I REALLY wanted to read.
Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Linda! Actually this is directly from the author. I’ve tried to stop Netgalley. I probably have over 30 authors I review for on their teams. I’m not actively seeking new ones out. I’ve also started working with a few marketing groups. I’m busy enough without Netgalley.

I didn’t mean you get them from NetGalley. I was talking about me not doing as many or asking for as many from them. I vowed to cut back on request and so far have only got one or two or none from them over the last few weeks. 🙂
