MAD ABOUT MINDY ... AND MANDY by Toni Blake
A MATCH MADE BY MINDY IS ONE WORTH KEEPING!
Professional matchmaker Mindy McCrae has her work cut out for her. She has a 95-percent success rate with her clients, but Benton Maxwell III is going to drop that stat like a stone. He wants Suzy Homemaker, not a modern independent woman! But Mindy's determined to fulfill her part of the bargain. He wants the perfect woman? She'll become his perfect woman ... in more ways than one!
The Wish-List Wife by Barbara Dunlop
Firefighter Adam Hollander has a problem: he needs a mother for his nine-year-old daughter. The solution: a list of qualities that'll capture everything he's looking for. Until Haley Roberts, his gorgeous new neighbor, hijacks his list! Despite having a nine-year-old daughter of her own, Haley insists she'll matchmake him a match in no time — she's as opposite from the list as can be, or is she?
Toni Blake's love of writing began when she won an essay contest in the fifth grade. By the time she graduated from high school in her small Kentucky community in 1983, she had written her first novella along with countless short stories, and edited her high school newspaper for three years.
However, it wasn't until 1994 that Toni seriously began to pursue her dreams of being a writer. Between 1994 and 1998 she had over thirty short stories and articles published in various youth, literary, and writing publications. In 1996 she was the recipient of the Kentucky Women Writers Fellowship and one of her short stories was nominated for the prestigious Pushcart Prize.
In the summer of 1995, Toni started writing romance novels at the urging of a good friend and critique partner. In January of 1998 she made her first sale to Precious Gems, with two more following closely behind. In January of 2000, Toni made her first sale to Harlequin.
Toni lives with her husband in a northern Kentucky suburb of Cincinnati and when not writing, she enjoys traveling, scrapbooking, and snow skiing.
