This weekend is Durna’s annual matchmaking festival.

And the matchmaker’s sick.

Annie has no choice but to step into her father’s shoes and save the day.

She’s useless at relationships, and the whole village know it. They've known ever since the day she was left at the altar in her wedding dress.

How can she help anyone else find love?

With everyone watching, she had to try. So she starts with the sexy American sailor who just sauntered in to the pub, asking for her.

Jack isn’t looking for love – just some help making vital repairs to his boat before sailing on. But when Annie starts matchmaking, she’s impossible to resist.

When she learns the truth, and the weekend is over, will they stay together or will life intervene to keep them apart?

You’ll love this sparkling romantic comedy because she’s a chocolatier, he’s a transatlantic sailor and the way they get together is laugh out loud funny.

Get it now.

Review

Fans of contemporary romances should definitely give CATCH ME A CATCH a read, as with a great plot and likable main characters, it can't be classed as anything but an excellent contemporary romance. Reviewed by Danielle G for The Romance Reviews

About the Author

Born into a family of voracious readers and consumed by the family affliction, it seemed the natural next step was to write. I started in school, mentally writing poetry while running around the hockey pitch. Nowadays, I keep my running to a minimum, and write instead. I live in Ireland, and when I'm not reading or writing, am usually to be found in traffic, driving 'Mum's taxi.'

I read A LOT of romance...some of it, really good...some, just eh. I found CATCH ME A CATCH to be a lovely and enjoyable, quick read. The story's premise was interesting and different...not something I'd read before. The characters were developed well enough for me to care about what happened with them. The pacing of the plot line moved well...neither too quickly, nor too slowly. I was left wishing that I lived in the small, caring community depicted in this story. I'd let them match me up!! :)

If you enjoy a heartwarming romance, with just the right mixture of conflict, spice, and happily-ever-after, this one is not to be missed. I'll be watching out for more by this author.

The person who wrote that this is a sappy romance and nothing happens is partly right in that it is more a slice of life than a thriller with stalkers and serial killers, but I don't particularly like that kind of romance anyway. It is, however, well-written, has good character development and a really lovely plot. I plan to read this one over and over because I really liked it. Definitely a keeper.

3.0 out of 5 stars A QUICK READ FOR AN AFTERNOON
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2015

This is a quick read which provides some humor with romance.

Annie has been drafted into being the town matchmaker during the Durna Matchmaking Festival. Her father is normally the matchmaker, but he is ill. The position has been in the family for a couple of generations.

In her normal life, Annie is a chocolatier in Dublin. She hopes to become a winner in a prestigious contest. Winning would make a dream of hers come true.

Then Jack walks into the pub. He is looking for a chandler to help him with repairs to his yacht. Mistakenly, Annie drags him into joining the search for his perfect match. He goes along with the error because he likes the way Annie looks.

This is a pretty easy story to follow. Annie and Jack are drawn to one another because of physical attraction and eventually they learn to like one another as people.

Annie and Jack are likable characters. Each of them provide the reader with a great deal of inner thoughts. I think I might have liked a little more actual verbal honesty between the two.

There are terrific secondary characters in this story. Annie's parents and family members, some village citizens and some of the people involved in looking for matches are absolutely wonderful for adding to the color and texture of an Irish village.

The plot is straight forward with expected twists and turns along the way.

This is a quick read which is easily completed in an afternoon. I would have liked a little more unexpected action.

If you are looking for a light, story, which takes place in a charming location within a close knit community...this is a great read. This is a very warm story. What I liked most was that Jack was a rich man who was not pompous, arrogant, overbearing, idiot. He was a great, solid hero who deserved the heroine who was very charming.

There were many characters who, I would have loved to get to know better but there wasn't time. I loved the community and family in Ireland. I hope that the Author makes this a series. I would buy every book!

The story is set in Ireland and the author brings out the love story of the characters beautifully almost using the setting as another asset to the romance. The occupation of a chocolate maker seems sweet and romantic.The confusion of the central character in choosing between her passion and her parents expectation of her is believable and well written. The story makes me want to visit Ireland for sure. I liked it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it! This one's a hit!
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2012

Having the reluctant matchmaker find true love was a terrific storyline for CATCH ME A CATCH. Annie Devine was absolutely charming and it was wonderful to get to know her. If anyone ever deserved a HEA ending, she did, since she worked hard for her success as a chocolatier but put her career on hold to help out her family when her father, the real matchmaker, became ill. The very last thing that Jack Miller, the alpha male hero, was thinking about when a lightening strike on his yacht forced him ashore at Annie's village, was to land right in the middle of the annual matchmaking festival. Jack had a lot of love to share but he'd hidden it away from everyone, including himself, due to his traumatic childhood.

I loved all the characters who all had delightful personalities and the dialogues were both authentic and entertaining. There were a number of editing mistakes but I enjoyed reading the story so much that they didn't bother me. The writing style was very smooth and flowed easily from beginning to end.

Reading this book was a lovely reading experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to read romantic stories.

I liked this book. It was an easy read and the storyline was cute. Though I tend to read mysteries most often, this was a nice change from the usual and it made my lunch hours go by way too fast. It was so hard to stop reading it and get back to work.

This story is set in Ireland The story line is so different. Annie lives in Dublin and makes chocolate. She is home for a town festival where her father is a matchmaker. He is sick so she takes over and in walks Jack Miller. She thinks he is there for her services and he plays along. The story is infectious and you are rooting for these two to some how make it. They come from different worlds and different countries. Jack is a wealthy man from the US. I really enjoyed thid book

A nice quick light hearted romantic read for when you don't want something that you have to think about too much. I did enjoy the Irish setting and the characters with the whole Matchmaking Festival scenario really putting a smile on my face. The romantic angle was a tad predictable, but enjoyable nevertheless. There were a few grammatical errors, the worst being the name Elaine changing to Eileen towards the end, but nothing that spoiled the read too much.
