Book excerpt: He’s loved her since the first day they met, but she’s more interested in helping others find their happily ever after. Eve has spent her young adult life playing matchmaker for the guests at Sweet Paradise Resort. Just because she hasn’t found love yet doesn’t mean she’s doomed to live alone, does it? Besides, she has different dreams that come first. One day, she’s going to be the head organizer for the events at the resort, and nothing is going to stop her. Gabriel can’t remember a day when he didn’t have feelings for Eve. She’s always been his bright light in an otherwise dim world.

Then everything gets tipped sideways when Eve insists on setting Gabriel up with someone who would be perfect for him. But, there’s a problem. Seeing him with someone does something strange to her heart. Is it possible she’s made the biggest mistake of her life? Can she get up the courage to admit there is no one else she’d rather be with?
