This book ended up being so much better than I anticipated!  Wish Upon a Matchmaker by Marie Ferrarella is a great, feel good story.  The book is extremely well written and flows effortlessly from beginning to end.

WUAMWish Upon a Matchmaker is about Ginny, a precocious four year old girl that desperately wants a Mommy for her widowed father.  She enlists the help of the local realtor, who is also known to be a successful and discreet matchmaker .  Stone, Ginny’s dad, is a general contractor that ends up renovating the home of Danni, a local celebrity chef.  Both Stone and Danni are longing for love and happiness while working through past sadness.

The storyline was realistic and romantic. However, I found the premise of Stone renovating the house almost entirely by himself, without a crew, hard to believe.  On the emotional side, the author brought tears to my eyes when Danni spoke about the sadness in her life.

I will definitely read another book from Marie Ferrarella.
