The Matchmakers

Written by Ada Stone

Narrated by Elaine Stone

Fed up with the ongoing frustrations of dating, Holly and her friend Melissa make a pact to try their hands at matchmaking. It’ll be a fun diversion from their own struggles — and what could go wrong, anyway?

With the pact underway, Holly watches her new housemates disagree over just about everything and senses the potential to cultivate an erotic passion between them. Meanwhile, Melissa sees an opportunity in her workplace, a middle school full of young and single staff; after meeting the new English teacher, Melissa sends one of her department’s sign-language interpreters to work in his second-period class. Little do Melissa and Holly know that both their matches share a person: Eric.

What will happen when Melissa and Holly finally figure out what they’ve started? And how will Eric handle this sudden abundance of romance?

Ok story but lacked depth, definitely not a page turner
