This book is the most perfect romance book, with amazing disability/health struggles rep, from both the main characters. So we have the opportunity to read, not only about their romance, but also about the way they overcome theses struggles.

I absolutely adored both of their characters and, all in all, both Tai's and Evangeline's family, and I do feel like it also pairs well with the small town setting, which is absolutely adorable.

It is not a 5 star read, due to some minor stuff that I felt like held the story back, mainly the switch between first-person POV and third-person POV.

This was a quirky book that had a few laughs, a few tears, and a couple of misadventures. The premise is that Evangeline, a librarian, was playing match-maker based on the check out history of various patrons. While this backfired spectacularly, she had to rethink her original plans. The spanner thrown into the works was Tai, the cousin of Evangeline's coworker, Hayley. Tai was set up with Evangeline as a joke, but it didn't turn out to be the joke Hayley thought it would be.
Sarah Monzon writes entertaining novels that engage the reader from the beginning to the end. The small-town atmosphere that Sarah has built only adds to the enchantment of the story. The people in Evangeline's life either love and support her as she is, or they make butts of themselves in the way they treat her--especially her ex, Brett. This is a book I'd love to read again. Sarah has delved into the world of alopecia and the perceived stigma people have toward the disease. She really brought light to a condition that people truly don't understand but look down upon it just the same. I appreciated her treatment of the situation in Evangeline's life.

This is a strong Four Star Book.

Bethany House Publishers provided the copy I read for this review. All opinions expressed are solely my own.

AN OVERDUE MATCH by SARAH MONZON is an inspirational romance novel with unforgettable characters, based largele on psalm 139 verse 14, “I will praise You for I am fearfuuly and wonderfully made…”, as we follow Evangeline Kelly, librarian and avid protector of books, as she deals with her hairless body, caused by alopecia, which led to her fiance breaking their engagement and her heart. The book is laugh out loud funny in parts, especially as she puts people in categories as though they are characters in a novel and tries to matchmake them according to their reading preferences……..
She has tattoo artist Tai Davis pegged as a rake and persistently refuses to go on a date with him, afraid that he too will break her heart……
I am not going to tell you any more for fear of spoiling things for you.
I cannot recommend this delightful and emotional read highly enough.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Bathany House Publishers. The opinions in this review arec completely my own,
