She has a cushy job, providing her with the life of solitude she craves. He has a great life, friends… and loving parents, plus a thriving law practice, helping those without a voice. But there’s something missing for both of them. All that could change in a blink of an eye when she’s tempted by a man who was never meant to be hers.
Sarah Everything was going so well. My job as tech support for a matchmaking service is an easy one… the demands are low. Perfect for an introvert like me. Then my boss throws a wrench in the works. There’s a last-minute cancellation for the Valentine’s Day dinner she’s hosting for our clients and she desperately needs someone to fill in. And that someone would be me. Enter Mark Hicks. He’s not the one I’m here to meet but he is the one who sets my heart on fire. Question is… do I risk it all to be with him or do I let this temptation be?
Mark Despite my life’s fullness, the emptiness goes deeper every day. There’s a soulmate size hole in my life, so I signed up for a popular matchmaking service, Forever Love, to fill it. I had high hopes when I signed up for their Valentine’s Day dinner. And to my surprise and delight, I meet my future wife in the restaurant’s waiting area. She may not technically be my match, but she is the one for me. Now if I can only get her to see that we’re perfect for each other.

Sarah works for a scam matchmaking service, because she works not much and gets paid good money. Now she has to attend a valentine's dinner to save her boss. Mark wants to settle down and tries the matchmaking service. As soon as these two meet sparks fly and they fall head over heels for each other, little do they know someone already tried to match them together 😉 Instalove, sweet, romantic and with a bit steam and with a sweet HEA 😍😍😍
Sarah wrote the computer program for “Forever Love” that matched people up for their perfect partner. When she was ordered to attend a Valentine’s Day event for the clients so she could fill in for someone who didn’t have a match, she tried to get out of it but couldn’t. However, she did get Mark Hicks’ attention. When he saw that she was not thrilled with her date, he rescued her. Could the two of them be a perfect match for each other?
Sarah works for a dating app that’s nothing but a scam. She continues to work there only because of the money she makes writing code for the app and the ability to work from home which is perfect for a socially anxious person like herself. Mark is trying to find his forever love and has signed up with a dating app. They’re having a Valentine’s Day dinner match up and he’s attending. While waiting to get signed in he notices the gorgeous curvy girl in front of him who looks more anxious then himself. What are the odds that’s she’s his match? This was a fast paced read with a meddling friend/ co-worker. Some great LOL moments. My first book by this author. I look forward to reading more. I received an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Sarah has a pretty easy job. Besides the fact that her boss is not easy to work with. Sarah is an introvert and doesn’t like leaving her apartment. Unfortunately her boss forced her to come to this Valentine’s Day dinner and stand in as a guest. Mark is desperate for a date. He’s ready to settle down and have a family. He spends $200 to attend this dinner but he gets stuck with one of the employees trying to throw herself at him. It was love at first sight for Mark so he interrupts/saved Sarah from her date. I liked that this story dealt with a heavier topic of being an introvert and needing time to decompress after socializing.
Matchmaking gone awry leads two people to their forever love. Mark and Sarah are a perfect match. I loved that Sarah was an introverted character. I don’t think that gets explored enough in romances. Mark was her perfect partner, understanding what she needed even after just meeting her. I also loved that it was actually her best friend and not the matchmaking service that knew they were meant for each other. This was a really fun romance to read with plenty of sweet and just enough spice.

Sarah has been informed that she has to take the place of a client that has found love on her own and not through the dating agency. So when she shows up for the dating event, Mark starts talking and she can't take her eyes off of him. But when she is told to stay away from him, he can't stay away from her either because they both are in love at first sight. With their instant love, they find happiness and a happily ever after together forever.
Love these short books.!!!!!.

The first title I have read by Vonne B is a page-turning, swoon-worthy instalove, the fourth book in Last Chapter Press' awesome Valentines and Holidates series. Mark and Sarah's meet-cute is Valentine's Day-perfection, their chemistry jumping off the page. Mark is a swoony male lead, and I absolutely loved the authenticity of the introverted and socially awkward Sarah. This is definitely a must-read in a series I cannot recommend enough.

My Tempting Holidate by Vonne B is part of the multi-author Valentines and Holidates series. This is the first book I have read by the author so I was not sure what to expect, as you never know if you will gel with an author's writing and story-telling styles. I did really enjoy this quick, sweet, spicy and tempting romance about Sarah and Mark. There is some OTT drama added in and a few characters you want to kick to the curb, but it all ends up in a HEA that tickles the heartstrings and puts a smile on your face.
Sarah and Mark are unaware neighbors. Amber, Sarah's best friend, knows they match. I love this story. I love how caring Mark is and how he knows how to treat Sarah and how he is protective and positive and loving and kind. I love how Sarah talks out loud to herself and how she is sweet and complicated. I like this cute, funny, quick story.

This was a cute instalove romance. It was the first time that I have ever read anything by this author and overall I liked the style but I did feel that the characters read a bit younger than they were supposed to be. But a cute short story.

Sarah, an introvert had her limits pushed and challenged. Mark to the rescue. Ironically they both refused to meet. Happenstance is always when our best friend gives a push and shove in the right direction. Funny. Intense so you cheer for the underdog. Loved it! No cliff.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. This is a short, instant love and low drama romance.

Sarah and Mark are both part of a Valentine dating event. Little do they know the are neighbors and meant to be. I'm really loving the new Valentines and Holidates series. All of the authors have given us original stories and amazing characters.
I reviewed a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. A bit of irony in the story but I liked how Mark came to Sarah's rescue and builds a relationship with her. Even better is how he understands and supports her with what she needs.

This was a cute, super short, romantic story with some comedy mixed it. Valentines day blind dating going super wrong, two of them finding their soul mate with other people's dates. This was a fun book and a must read.
Oh my swoon... this short story will for sure have the reader believing in Love At First Sight. Having to go on a blind dinner date, but leaving with someone else. The one you know instantly is the one for you, your happy ever after. This was truly a great story.
Mark & Sara had a fun read. Despite Mark's life’s fullness, the emptiness goes deeper every day. There’s a soulmate size hole in his life, so I signed up for a popular matchmaking service, Forever Love, to fill it. And am voluntarily leaving my review.
I really enjoyed this book. Sarah and Mark were great characters and made a wonderful couple. I loved that they were both a little awkward but they still had that insta love connection. Great read.
