I read it several years ago but don&#8217;t recall enough to review it properly.

So far <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1414313853\">The Perfect Match<\/a> has just the right amount of romantic tension and suspense to hold the reader&#8217;s interest. I would recommend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1414313853\">The Perfect Match<\/a> and all of Susan&#8217;s other books.<\/p>\n<h3>GIVEAWAY:<\/h3>\n<p>I have an extra copy of The Perfect Match to give away.
