Summary

They’ll find you love even if they can’t find it for themselves.

April McVey hasn’t a romantic bone in her body. So how has she found herself at the door of Mrs Hart’s Marriage Bureau, job application in hand?

Matchmaker Martha hopes the lively Irish girl will breathe fresh air into a business struggling to keep with the times amid the tumult of 1930s Britain.

So when lonely widower Fabian arrives at the bureau, the pair’s matchmaking skills – and professionalism – meet their first true test.

Mrs Hart’s Marriage Bureau is a charming and witty romantic comedy about friendship, loneliness, and the unexpected places where we find fulfilment.

A Must Read

A well researched book as you would expect from this author.
Characters were convincing and the story had a twist that knowing Sheena wasn’t totally unexpected.
Looking forward to the sequel

Excellent escapism

A wonderful listen if you want to be transported to a different era, one that’s rarely written about and an unusual topic. Although it’s a light hearted galloping read, it touches a number of serious topics in a sensitive way, with well drawn imperfect heroines. So good to have a book as well where women take centre stage. I defy you not to have a tear in your eye at the ending.

Excellent narration with a variety of accents - she captured the Northern Irish accent very well.

A lovely listen

A most enjoyable, well crafted story. Readers accent slipped occasionally but it didn’t adversely affect the story.
