Book Description

Annabelle is tired of being the lone failure in a family of overachievers. She's endured dead-end jobs and a broken engagement. Even her hair's a mess!

Annabelle is tired of being the lone failure in a family of overachievers. She's endured dead-end jobs and a broken engagement. Even her hair's a mess! But that's going to change now that she's taken over her late grandmother's matchmaking business. All Annabelle has to do is land the Windy City's hottest bachelor as her client, and she'll be the most sought-after matchmaker in town. Nothing is going to stand in her way -- not the drunk lying comatose under her car, not her family's disapproval, and certainly not the lingering effects of a broken heart.

With his money green eyes and calculated charm, Heath Champion is the best sports agent in the country. He's wealthy, driven, and gorgeous, so why does he need a matchmaker, especially a red-haired screw-up like Annabelle Granger? True, she's entertaining, and she does have a certain quirky appeal. But Heath is searching for the ultimate symbol of his success -- the perfect wife. And to make an extraordinary match, he needs an extraordinary matchmaker, right?

Thin, rich, utterly fabulous Portia Powers has spent her career making matches for everyone but herself. Her take-no-prisoners attitude has built Power Matches into the top matchmaking agency in Chicago. So what if she has more enemies than friends and she's one breath away from a nervous breakdown? Neither an upstart like Annabelle Granger nor Heath Champion's menacing, but oddly intriguing, bodyguard, will keep her from getting what she wants -- a Power Match for Heath ... the city's very own Jerry Maguire.

Soon everyone in Chicago has a stake in the outcome, right down to Annabelle's overprotective book club. When the matchmaker promises she'll do anything to keep her star client happy ... does she mean anything? If Annabelle isn't careful, she just might find herself going heart-to-heart with the toughest negotiator in town -- a man who's beginning to ask himself: Exactly how perfect does perfect have to be?

    "Let's put it this way," he retorted. "My future wife's idea of a good time is sitting in Soldier Field in January with the wind blowing in off the lake at thirty knots. Se can feed half a dozen college athletes a spaghetti dinner with no warning and play eighteen holes of golf from the men's tees without embarassing herself. She's sexy as hell, knows how to dress, and thinks fart jokes are funny. Anything else?"
    "It's just so darned hard to find women who've had lobotomies this days. Still if that's what you want"
    Decisamente meglio dei precedenti della serie. Forse il mio preferito, in effetti, assieme col primo.
    Rispetto ai precedenti ha il vantaggio di avere una protagonista decisamente più interessante, che ha le sue fisime, ma non così forti come quelle di Nobody baby but mine e This heart of mine. Di contro il protagonista è meno incisivo.
    Il ritorno di molti dei protagonisti dei libri precedenti e la storia secondaria sono un ulteriore incentivo alla lettura.
