Synopsis ~
The up-and-coming matchmaking agency
Kinnections is the hottest thing to hit Verily, New York—just like Kennedy
Ashe, social director for the service she owns with her two best girlfriends. A
coach, consultant, and cheerleader rolled into one super-sizzling package,
Kennedy creates dream dates, encourages singles to shine, and never refuses a
challenge—not even Nate Ellison Raymond Dunkle, rocket scientist, nerd
extraordinaire, and Kennedy’s newest client.
Kennedy vows to
work her magic and transform this hot mess in a lab coat with a disastrous
relationship track record into the most wanted man on the Verily dating scene.
If only she could turn the wand on herself . . .
Though she radiates
confidence and sex appeal, Kennedy harbors deep-seated insecurities from a
tormented past and lifelong struggle with weight issues. When she realizes she
and Nate are cut from the same cloth and might be perfect together, can Kennedy
learn to let her heart lead the way? Or will her fears sentence her to the
sidelines as Nate finds love—with someone else?
~ Review ~
This is the second
installment in the Searching For Series and was an enjoyable read. I mean who wouldn’t like a story that makes
dreams come true.
Kennedy is one of the owners
of a match making company called Kinnections.
Ned is a client in dire need of help in the women department. When Kennedy and Ned meet she is up for the
challenge of helping him attain his goal of a beautiful woman to share his life
with and start a family.
What we find though is that Kennedy benefits
from knowing Ned too. As she has begun
to peel back the layers of Ned she reveals that there is more to the nerdy
exterior than she could have imagined.
Here begins the transformation to Nate and once she realizes she has
developed feelings for him she can’t let him go. Has Kennedy subconsciously created her ideal
mate? Will she break the rules and
pursue her client?
It took me a little bit
to warm up to Ned and just how awkward he was in social situations but as he
transformed so did my feelings towards him.
We do see things heat up towards the end of the book and I was
pleasantly surprised to find that Nate was a tiger in the bedroom.
There were no crazy plot
twists in this story. It was an
enjoyable read of two broken people finding each other on the way to their happy ending. Although
this is book 2 in series it can be read as a standalone, as each book focuses
on a different partner of Kinnections.
