Thank you to Bethany House Publishers for the ARC of Calling on the Matchmaker by Jody Hedlund. All opinions are my own. 

This is my favorite Jody Hedlund book yet! Such an easy five star read. 

One of my best discoveries of 2023 was Jody Hedlund, and now I want everyone to read her books! If you haven’t read any, I definitely recommend starting with this one. It’s the first in a series and can be read as a standalone. 

This book is fun, charming, and sweet while also discussing harder topics like death and the treatment of immigrants in the 1800s. 

If you’re looking for a good historical romance without the spice, I would suggest you read this one. 

I am so excited to re-read this book in the future and the sequel coming out in 2024.
