Romance Series

Half pint 4 year old Ginny Scarborough makes her sudden appearance in the office of Maizie Sommers, a real estate agent also dabbling in matchmaker on the side, with a specific request for a mother. The precocious child wants her father happy again. Her mother died 1 ½ years ago and Danni doesn't like the lady her father has targeted as her prospective mother. Once an aerospace engineer until the industry was all but dead, Stone now does construction, albeit difficult making ends meeting in a slow economy.

Always the matchmaker, Maizie and little Ginny, along with her Aunt Virginia, concoct a detailed laid out plan. Maizie has a client who purchased a home in Bedford, purchasing at an affordable price, and now has the money for needed renovations. Danni Everett began in Atlanta with a passion for cooking. Being offered her own cooking show called "Deserts To Die For" was the chance to pay off her student loans and her late father's hospital bills while doing what she loves. Contracting Stone Scarborough upon Maizi's recommendation, a deal is struck to complete her renovations. Conniving intervention by clever little Ginny and Aunt Virginia soon reaps their reward. Drawn together, Stone and Danni begin to feel the sexual pull towards one another. The sizzling sex and warm feelings turn into a dream that both are fully aware will not last.

WISH UPON A MATCHMAKER is a most delightful and amusing story of a very clever and precocious 4 year old seeking a mother and happiness for her father. Two lonely people come together to fulfill their dreams and enrich their lives with love. Marie Ferrarella has not disappointed me in this book. Her vision and imagination is apparent in every tale I have read that she has created. As long as she keeps writing of love and life as she does, she will forever have my devotion as an avid fan.

SUMMARY

Three-foot Matchmaker

Ginny Scarborough has picked out her new mommy— Danni Everett, the local celebrity chef who hired Ginny's widowed father, Stone, to renovate her house. And Danni couldn't deny the immediate zing she felt for the handsome, green-eyed contractor…even if they were brought together by a precocious four-year-old. So why was Stone holding back when everything between them felt so right?

Stone's heart had been, well, stone-cold for far too long…that is, until he met the beautiful and bubbly chef. Still, Danni was part of a world where Stone and his little girl didn't belong—better to move on than risk the pain of losing love again.

With two stubborn adults to contend with, could little Cupid still make her dreams of a family come true?
