When Matchmakers Intervene: A Heartwarming Journey of Blind Dates and Love
Delayna ‘Dena’ Carter never expected a simple outing to turn her world upside down. Urged by friends, she agrees to a blind date with an architect named Seth—only to be stood up. But life has a way of surprising her. The very next day, at a dinner hosted by her late husband's mother, she’s stunned to find Seth sitting at the table—charming, handsome, and irritating. Though neither mention their missed connection, Dena senses this is no coincidence. And when her mother-in-law and Seth’s father announce their engagement, everything shifts.Seth has reasons for waiting to confront her for not showing last night—to get even, or for a second chance? He’s convinced Dena is the one, even if her initial impression of him is less than warm. To break down walls, he suggests they go on five fun, no-pressure dates—an experiment to develop friendship, not romance. But Dena isn’t easily convinced. She’s determined to keep her guard up, even if Seth'''s charm begins to chip away at her defenses.
As they navigate a series of unexpected adventures, heartfelt conversations, and undeniable chemistry, will they find that friendship—and perhaps something more—can blossom from the ashes of initial misunderstandings? Or will the past and their own fears stand in the way of a future neither saw coming?
A story of hope, humor, and the transformative power of a starting again—perfect for readers who believe that love often arrives when you least expect it.
