Match Me If You Can by Sandy Barker

2.0

This book was a miss for me unfortunately. The first 40% or so were great! I thought the premise of the book had promise and the writing was enjoyable for me. However, after Tristan had met and rejected the first potential suitor, things started to go downhill for me. I was kind of expecting Match Me If You Can to turn into a marriage of convenience romance between the two leads (and it did, 90% of the way through the book) but instead I had to read about Tristan going on dates with other women, even proposing to one, while Poppy watched from the sidelines. I unfortunately felt barely any chemistry between the two main characters, even when I was being constantly told that their chemistry and mutual attraction was off the charts, so when they did finally share their first kiss, I felt kind of bored. I found myself struggling to finish the book, and when I did get to the end all I felt was "meh". This was not a bad book, the writing was snappy and funny at times, and I really do think the premise had potential. Sadly, Match Me If You Can just didn't hit the mark for me, and I won't be picking up the next book in the series.

 I recieved a digital ARC of this book from NetGalley and the publishers in return for an honest review. All of the opinions above are my own.
