Matchmaker's Guidebook
Page 7
If you don’t connect with someone right away, do you give them more chances to grow on you or do you move to the next person?
A good first impression is everything.
* * *
Why are you using a matchmaker?
I’ve been unsuccessful in finding a man on my own. I think I intimidate the men I’m in contact with. My brother appears to have decided on a wife and they are happy. I want something similar but with a more appropriate spouse. William Darcy is the ideal spouse. I’m very suited for him.
* * *
I’m hoping this will be a more efficient way to find the right man. The dating scene is dreadful.
I’m rather tall and prefer men who are taller than me. Though this is not a requirement, only a preference.
I have a standard poodle named Cerberus. In spite of his name he is a sweet animal and anyone who I date must love dogs.
Don’t send anyone who is unemployed.

Love happens, but only if you believe.
Friends to lovers?
Pastry chef, Lottie Lucas, has loved Pastor Bill Collins since they were children and they helped each other memorize their multiplication tables. But Lottie's tired of waiting for Bill to clue in that she's the one for him. When an opportunity to expand her growing cupcake line means she'll have to move out of Meryton, Lottie must decide which of her heart's desire to pursue.
Enemies to… Slightly tolerable?
Elizabeth Bennet, owner of Meryton Matchmakers, wants nothing more than for corporate raider, William Darcy, to butt out of her business. What possibly could the cold, standoffish loner know about love and affairs of the heart? If she can't convince William that Meryton Matchmaker's value extends beyond its small yearly profit, she'll not only lose her livelihood but her dream of helping others find love.
For fans of Lizzie Bennet Diaries and those who've dreamed of the million other ways Mr. Darcy could woo Elizabeth. A Pride and Prejudice retelling that shares stories of all those you've come to know and love (and hate). Enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, and opposites attract in this full bodied, heartwarming series.
This series was previously title Meryton Matchmakers. This book was called Meryton Matchmakers Book 1: Lottie Pursues Bill.
