Critics Review
Praise for The Matchmaker’s Cottage
“The Matchmaker’s Cottage is a poignant, layered, and moving debut, full of cozy autumnal charm and nostalgia. A quietly powerful slow burn romance that feels as delightful as a hug!”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood
“The Matchmaker’s Cottage is the perfect cozy, fall romance. Kat Sloane crafts a beautiful, emotionally-layered second chance story.“—New York Times bestselling author Julie Soto
“Tender, nostalgic, and deeply romantic, Kat Sloane’s debut is the perfect cozy read to curl up with this fall.“—New York Times bestselling author Hannah Bonam-Young
“With equal parts lyrical prose, witty banter, and heat, The Matchmaker’s Cottage is a joy from start to finish. Kat Sloane’s knack for crafting gorgeously realized characters and heart-wrenching yearning has made her one of my favorite writers, period. She’s destined to become your new auto-buy author. Now we all have a reason to say, ‘I’m coming to the cottage.’“—Kate Goldbeck, bestselling author of Daddy Issues
“A charming second-chance romance filled with small-town warmth, autumn vibes, a touch of celebrity sparkle and irresistible forced proximity. Kat Sloane’s debut is heartfelt and impossible not to root for.“—Ali Rosen, bestselling author of Unlikely Story
“Debut author Sloane’s vivid descriptions, distinct characters, and excellent ear for dialog make it easy to picture this entertaining novel’s events as a film, which seems appropriate for a book whose supporting characters are movie stars. Second-chance lovers, a small-town setting, and friends-to-enemies-to-lovers are just a few of the tropes found in this open-door novel, which is recommended for all romance collections.”—Library Journal
“A delightfully warm and charming second chance romance between a perfectly cast grumpy/sunshine pair that proves sometimes you really can go home again.“—Jezebel
