Failure to Match

Who Would Like This Book:

If you’re a sucker for enemies-to-lovers banter, deliciously spicy scenes, and witty dialogue, this book is calling your name! "Failure to Match" is a romcom that gives you all the feels - angst, laughs, melt-your-heart moments, and some seriously steamy chemistry. The characters, especially the gruff-yet-adorable billionaire MMC and the sharp, no-nonsense matchmaker FMC, are easy to root for. Anyone who loves contemporary romance with a touch of emotional depth and a generous side of dirty talk will find this one hard to put down.

Who May Not Like This Book:

If billionaire romances just aren’t your thing or you prefer minimal angst, you might have a tougher time warming up to this story. Some readers were frustrated by the MMC’s early behavior and felt the reasons behind it fell a little too neatly into romance tropes, like the “tortured past.” Others wished for more dual POV or found the heroine’s choices around money hard to buy into. If you’re not a fan of steamy scenes or rapid emotional turnarounds, this might not hit your sweet spot.
