Four Hearts (Power of the Matchmaker) by Julie Wright
“The Power of the Matchmaker” series is a 12 book series, with one book releasing each month during 2016. They are all stand alone books, but they do all include the matchmaker, Pearl, who isn’t restricted by time boundaries. Pearl is introduced in the prequel novella matchmaker series book.
Four Hearts is the May release for the Power of the Matchmaker 2016 series. I have read every book so far in this series, including the prequel.
This story follows Andra Stone and her friendship/relationship with Everett for about a 10 year span. He keeps popping in and out of her life-sometimes they are friends, sometimes they are dating; but something always happens to make them part ways.
Andra is very stubborn, spunky, and competitive; especially around Everett. They end up both being very smart and successful surgeons. It was fun to read about their different dating and work situations and how they ended up always crossing paths with each other.
Over the years, matchmaker Pearl keeps popping up to help them with their relationship. Great romance, clean, and funny! I was a little frustrated however that it took as long as it did for them to finally get a permanent resolution to their relationship!!
I received a complimentary copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review on social media-all opinions are my own.
About the book:
Every time Andra Stone crosses paths with Everett Covington, trouble follows. First she loses her scholarship, then she loses the apartment she’d wanted more than anything. But tragedy hits hardest when she loses her grandmother—the best friend Andra has ever known. She determines that Everett is a talisman of ill fortune. When Everett comes to work in her hospital and is applying for the same position she’d been working toward since residency, Andra believes him to be her personal poltergeist. The human heart has four chambers—four chances to get it right. Andra has only one chance left.
