      To all the fabulous clients who laughed, sobbed and, on occasion, vomited their way into my heart.

      And to James for bearing with me.

      ‘If you look for perfection, you’ll never be content.’

      Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

       A Note to the Reader

      While this book is inspired by what the author learned and experienced during her career as a matchmaker, none of the characters portrayed are in any way based on real people. Just as Ellie Rigby is not Haley Hill, the names and characters in this book are a product of the author’s imagination. Although real places are referred to throughout, they are all used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events or persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

PART ONE

       Chapter 1

      IT WAS A bitter November evening when I found myself in Be At One in Covent Garden, sitting opposite a man whose head was too small for his body. Below a gelled curtain fringe were squinty eyes, shiny skin and bushy hair sprouting from one nostril.

      ‘You’re the only girl I’ve met online who isn’t a fatty,’ he said, getting up from his chair and sitting down next to me. ‘But I’d say you’re more a size ten than an eight.’

      I forced a smile.

      ‘I don’t mind a bit of meat though,’ he said, his fingers creeping onto my thigh, tongue edging out in anticipation. His breath smelled of coffee and pickled onions.

      I glanced at my watch and then downed my mojito. This date hadn’t even made it to eight p.m.
