Review: Failure to Match by Kyra Parsi

About the Book

He’s the arrogant, grumpy billionaire bane of my existence... and now I’m his full-time, live-in dating coach.

I’ve never failed to match a client—until him.

Jackson Sinclair has dragged me through eight months of matchmaking hell, and I have the carnage of broken hearts to prove it.

But I refuse to get fired from my dream job because of some infuriatingly gorgeous billionaire and his absurd criteria for a wife.

The plan is simple.

All I have to do is infiltrate his penthouse, pretend to be his blind date, and figure out what the actual f*ck his actual f*cking problem is.

It’ll be fine. He doesn’t know what I look like.

Except I nearly drown in Satan-clair’s massive pool, he figures out who I am, and now I’m forcibly glued to his side for the next 30 days.

It’s a nightmare, until it’s not.

I hate him, until I discover everything he’s been hiding.

We fight, until the tension boils over into sizzling temptation.

Jackson Sinclair may not believe in soulmates, and he may not believe in love, but little does he know, he’s finally met his match…

Review

Failure to Match is a new perfect romantic comedy.  I have zero to no complaints. Every page was needed, and the book kept getting better and better. It’s witty, steamy, and entertaining. The push and pull between the characters is so addicting. I couldn’t put it down. It was just so deliciously good.

It was Jamie’s job to find a romantic partner for Jackson; however, Jackson ended up being one of the worst clients on the planet. To save her job, she goes undercover to figure out why they can’t seem to find a partner for him. That ends up being a hilarious disaster, and not long after, she’s forced to work strictly with Jackson and live in his home.

Of course, they are misperceiving each other. Jamie isn’t just a matchmaker. And Jackson isn’t just this brooding CEO who is an awful client. There’s so much more with each of them—especially Jackson. The book is solely told in Jamie’s POV. However, Parsi did a perfect job of giving hints about Jackson’s feelings and thoughts through his dialogue and his body language. Sidenote, I adored that Jackson was so determined to win Jamie’s cat over. I found that to be so fun and adorable. Not to mention that Jackson was completely down bad for Jamie and would do anything for her.  

From the beginning, Jamie and Jackson’s chemistry is apparent, and they have such top-notch banter. And they only continued to get better as the story progressed.

Final Thoughts

I devoured Failure to Launch. It’s such a great rom-com, and everyone should drop everything and read it immediately. The author perfectly captures a dislike-to-lovers romance and there is so much nuisance with these characters and their romance. Jackson and Jamie are addicting and have such an amazing dynamic.
