Romance Contemporary

Gladie Burger, a woman born for playing matchmaker is on another quest to figure out who she can match up now in this fun and mysterious novel. She has learned everything from her Granny Zelda whose match-making service is being stolen right underneath her by Luanda Laughing-Eagle, a self-proclaimed psychic but Gladie knows that she is a fraud and will stop at nothing to expose her. That is until Gladie, her friends and Luanda are all kidnapped and left for dead. Once free, Luanda claims to know everything about the kidnapping, including where the kidnapper is hiding out and Gladie can't wait to expose her for the liar she is.

But when Gladie trips over her kidnapper's dead body in the woods, it opens a new can of worms and Gladie knows that saving her Granny's business will have to wait as she tries to solve her kidnapper's murder. However, Luanda claims she already knows who did it and if she does, the townspeople may have a new match-maker to run to, leaving Gladie and her Granny out of business for good. With determination on her side Gladie will stop at nothing to track down her kidnapper's killer and reveal him/her once and for all so that she can prove that Luanda is a fraud. But is it too late?

LOVE GAME is a fun, mystery book with a captivating storyline. However, the writing was not particularly enjoyable. There is a lot of humor in places that didn't need it and it was less funny than I believe the writer intended on. At times, it was very stop and go because it seemed hard to understand what the writer was trying to portray. However, I do give the plot a big thumbs up!

SUMMARY

Five months have passed since Gladie Burger came to Cannes, California, to join her eccentric Grandma Zelda in the family matchmaking business, and Gladie is quickly mastering the rules of attraction. Her latest fix-up is still going strong and Gladie’s bank account is back in the blackβ€”until a rival matchmaker arrives in town and has both Gladie and Zelda seeing red. Not only is self-proclaimed psychic Luanda Laughing-Eagle stealing Grandma Zelda’s clients, but Zelda is convinced that Luanda’s ESP is total BS. She tasks Gladie with exposing Luanda as a fraud, but Gladie’s attention is diverted when murder comes a-calling. Spencer Bolton, the gorgeous chief of police and Gladie’s on-again, off-again flame, wants her to stay out of the investigationβ€”and away from the deliciously chiseled detective who also aims to win Gladie’s heart. But the one thing Gladie’s learned is that in business, love and murder . . . it’s always personal.
