Lauren Holbrook is still in the matchmaking business.  This time in involves her employer and best friend Brandon and Hannah, the new receptionist at Brandon Knox Photography.  There is also Shawn, the guy at the coffee shop, since he is so kind to feed her coffee and chocolate, why not look for his perfect mate, as a thank you. 

Lauren’s Dad throws her a curve ball when he tells her he is going out of town for a singles retreat.  The last thing she wants is to have a step-mom coming into her life.  Then there is Ryan, she is not sure how she feels about him, romantically or just as a good friend.  She is rethinking her plan of staying single in little bites, maybe she should just let God plan her life and hope for the best. 

This is another smashing chick lit book by Erynn Mangum.  The humor is nonstop and the matchmaking efforts are sweet.  Lauren is a top-notch character; she fumbles a lot but keeps on going and keeps believing in happy ever after.
