TITLE: ⟫ Forbidden Match (The Perfect Match Agency Book #6)
AUTHOR: ⟫ MM Farmer
RATING: ⟫ 3.5/5
BLURB: ⟫
The Perfect Match Agency’s company policy is clear: No dating in the workplace!
Looks like Renn and Topher didn’t get the memo…
Topher
Working in IT for the Perfect Match Agency has been my dream job. Not just because I get to work with the software that helps people find their mate, but because it allows me to work from home. And with my anxiety issues, working from home is a must. Don’t get me wrong, I have my work friends who I talk to through email and texts every day, especially Renn. We’ve never met, but Renn has become my best friend.
When the system sends both of us emails congratulating us on finding a 99.1% perfect match, not even my anxiety can stop me from heading to the office to solve the problem…and to meet Renn in person for the very first time.
Renn
Having the Perfect Match system send me an email telling me it’s found a 99.1% compatible match for me was not the wildest thing that happened to me that day. Meeting my best friend in person for the first time and having him instantly go into heat and me into rut definitely was. That supply closet will never be the same. Neither will me and Topher, unfortunately. There’s nothing like coming into work on a Monday after a wild heat weekend only to be fired to start a relationship out on the wrong foot.
But are Topher and I victims of nature and destined to go down in flames, or is the perfection of our match exactly what the company needs to study to take the whole matchmaking system to the next level?
Perfect Match Agency is a multi-author gay romance series. The stories are non-shifter omegaverse, with high heat and low angst. Male pregnancy is possible in the world. Each individual book can be read as a standalone, features a new couple, and a satisfying happily ever after.
Forbidden Match is the sixth book in the series and features friends to lovers, office romance…that leads to disaster, a convenient broom closet, that guy from HR who ruins everyone’s fun (you know the one I’m talking about), someone else’s wedding, and a happily ever after.
REVIEW: ⟫ This was a very sweet story of two workers falling in love with each other through their emails and interactions, before having everything confirmed by the Perfect Match Agency. It was interesting to see a little more of the workings of the agency, although the ‘drama’ felt more than a little manufactured. I thought that Topher’s anxiety was handled very well, with the mating bond acting to soothe some of his concerns but not ‘fixing’ everything. I also liked how the resolution of things considered Topher’s conditions – it wasn’t a case of it simply being a plot device, quickly forgotten and discarded.
I have really enjoyed reading the stories in this verse and it has introduced me to two new (to me) authors so that’s excellent as well! If you’ve enjoyed other stories in this verse, I think you will find this a kind, gentle read with a little heat and a lot of caring/love.
I received an ARC from GRR.
