Rating: Summary: Wonderfully entertaining! Highly recommended Review: The matchmaking festival is over, but the matchmakers have a special request to fill before the holidays. Georgianna Moore, age eight, believes she and her mother Maggie need a new house and a new daddy. She's picked Gabe O'Connor to fill the bill, but Gabe and her mother haven't spoken in four years, following a devastating scandal that rocked both their lives. So far the Bliss matchmakers have been highly successful in their efforts, as demonstrated in A WIFE FOR OWEN CHASE and A BRIDE FOR CALDER BROWN, but this is their greatest challenge yet. In the meantime, Louisa Bliss discovers that romance is not limited to age, despite her sister's disbelief. Kristine Rolofson presents a delightful romp in A MAN FOR MAGGIE MOORE. With her characteristic wit, Rolofson combines the act of healing with the possibilities of love, to result in a light, pleasant romp that transform cold winter nights into heat. With entrancing characters, a wonderful setting, and the return of favorite characters of previous books, A MAN FOR MAGGIE MOORE is a highly entertaining read. Highly recommended.
Rating: Summary: very jocular tale Review: Though the Bliss, Montana annual matchmaking festival is successfully over, The Hearts Club has one last request to handle. Eight years old Georgianna Moore wants a new daddy for her and her younger siblings. Precocious Georgianna believes single rancher Gabe O'Connor with a child of his own, is the perfect individual for the job. After success with finding A WIFE FOR OWEN CHASE and A BRIDE FOR CALDER BROWN, the matchmakers set their sights on pairing Gabe and Georgianna's mom, Maggie. However, this time the Bliss sisters and associates have their work cut out for them in spite of the assistance of the children of their prime targets. For this duet, though clearly attracted to each other, the past looms in the way of the present and definitely the future. As with the previous two Montana Matchmakers' novels, A MAN FOR MAGGIE MOORE is a very jocular tale. Gabe and Maggie are a likable pair and the interfering geriatric Heart's Club provides amusement and insight into the lead couple. The return of the Chases and Browns add a homecoming feel to the delightful plot. However, with all the humor and romance, the tale is stolen by that apprentice matchmaker Georgianna, whose story fifteen years into the future should be the start of the Montana Matchmakers, The Next Generation.
