Now childhood friend and self-appointed matchmaker Isobel has decided to transform this “scruffy brute” into an eligible gentleman. Though he has no interest in rejoining society, Ned senses Izzy needs the distraction and reluctantly goes along with her plans. Despite their differing views, a surprising new attraction grows…but Ned’s doing his best to avoid it!

His Maddening Matchmaker Reviews

3.5
“Yet another brilliant book by Virginia Heath! I loved the previous book of the series and I was happy to once again walk the streets of Whittleston-on-the-Water and see what its gossipy, but caring inhabitants were up to. I looked forward to seeing Ned and Izzy find their HEA and I wasn’t disappointed! Their interactions are hilarious and poignant at the same time and I enjoyed them very much. And the side characters are equally gorgeous and well fleshed out. I would have trimmed the book a little bit here and there, but that’s probably only my eagerness to see them finally understand that they loved each other! I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.”

About Virginia Heath

When Virginia Heath was a little girl it look her ages to fall asleep, so she made up stories in her head to pass the time while she was staring at the ceiling. As she got older, the stories became more complicated, sometimes taking weeks to get to the happy ending. Then one day, she decided to embrace the insomnia and start writing them down. Over thirty books and four Romantic Novel of the Year Award nominations later, it still takes her forever to fall asleep.
