This was a quirky book that had a few laughs, a few tears, and a couple of misadventures. The premise is that Evangeline, a librarian, was playing match-maker based on the check out history of various patrons. While this backfired spectacularly, she had to rethink her original plans. The spanner thrown into the works was Tai, the cousin of Evangeline's coworker, Hayley. Tai was set up with Evangeline as a joke, but it didn't turn out to be the joke Hayley thought it would be.
Sarah Monzon writes entertaining novels that engage the reader from the beginning to the end. The small-town atmosphere that Sarah has built only adds to the enchantment of the story. The people in Evangeline's life either love and support her as she is, or they make butts of themselves in the way they treat her--especially her ex, Brett. This is a book I'd love to read again. Sarah has delved into the world of alopecia and the perceived stigma people have toward the disease. She really brought light to a condition that people truly don't understand but look down upon it just the same. I appreciated her treatment of the situation in Evangeline's life.
This is a strong Four Star Book.
