After a career-ending accident, former NFL recruit Ian Hunter is back on campus-and he's ready to get his new game on. As one of the masterminds behind Wingmen, Inc., a successful and secretive word-of-mouth dating service, he's putting his extensive skills with women to work for the lovelorn. But when Blake Olson requests the service of Wingmen, Inc., Ian may have landed his most hopeless client yet.
From her frumpy athletic gear to her unfortunate choice of footwear, Blake is going to need a miracle if she wants to land her crush. At least with a professional matchmaker by her side she has a fighting chance. Ian knows that his advice and a makeover can turn Blake into another successful match. But as Blake begins the transformation from hot mess to smokin' hot, Ian realizes he's in danger of breaking his cardinal rule....
I first got interested in The Matchmaker's Playbook from the movie and not the book itself. I saw the book as a recommendation and read the synopsis but was never interested in reading, at least not until after I watched the movie. I figured since I enjoyed watching the movie so much I thought I should give the book a read.
I stick by something I had mentioned before, for movies based off of books depending on which you do first that's the one you are more biased to. Since I watched the movie first that is where my bias goes. That's not to say that the book was bad, after reading it I can safely say that the movie really stuck to it. It was more like the movie held my attention more than the book, making this a one and done read.
