SummaryAnnabelle is tired of being the lone failure in a family of
overachievers. She's endured dead-end jobs and a broken
engagement. Even her hair's a mess! But that's going to
change now that she's taken over her late grandmother's
matchmaking business. All Annabelle has to do is land the
Windy City's hottest bachelor as her client, and she'll be
the most sought-after matchmaker in town. Nothing is going
to stand in her way—not the drunk lying comatose under
her car, not her family's disapproval, and certainly not the
lingering effects of a broken heart.
With his money green eyes and calculated charm, Heath
Champion is the best sports agent in the country. He's
wealthy, driven, and gorgeous, so why does he need a
matchmaker, especially a red-haired screw-up like Annabelle
Granger? True, she's entertaining, and she does have a
certain quirky appeal. But Heath is searching for the
ultimate symbol of his success—the perfect wife. And to
make an extraordinary match, he needs an extraordinary
matchmaker, right?
Thin, rich, utterly fabulous Portia Powers has spent her
career making matches for everyone but herself. Her
take-no-prisoners attitude has built Power Matches into the
top matchmaking agency in Chicago. So what if she has more
enemies than friends and she's one breath away from a
nervous breakdown? Neither an upstart like Annabelle Granger
nor Heath Champion's menacing, but oddly intriguing,
bodyguard, will keep her from getting what she wants—a
Power Match for Heath ... the city's very own Jerry Maguire.
Soon everyone in Chicago has a stake in the outcome, right
down to Annabelle's overprotective book club. When the
matchmaker promises she'll do anything to keep her star
client happy ... does she mean anything? If Annabelle isn't
careful, she just might find herself going heart-to-heart
with the toughest negotiator in town—a man who's
beginning to ask himself: Exactly how perfect does perfect
have to be?
