An Unsuitable Match, by number one best-selling author Joanna Trollope, is an uplifting story of love, family and second chances.

Dealing with one's own emotions is one thing. Facing a parent's roller coaster of a love life is quite another....

Rose Woodrowe is getting married to Tyler Masson - a wonderful, sensitive man who is head over heels in love with her. The only problem? This isn't the first time for either of them, and their five grown-up children have strong opinions on the matter....

Who to listen to? Who to please? Rose and Tyler are determined to get it right this time, but in trying to make everyone happy, can they ever be happy themselves?

Reseñas de la Crítica

With her compassion for her characters, Trollope cuts to the quick of family life, and the difference between men and women (Fanny Blake)

Sober read

I usually read Joanna Trollope when I want to hear realistic domestic situations and I’m rarely disappointed. And, as such, I learn more about myself by identifying with the characters at some point. This is not a fairytale, love conquers all story. It’s a growing up story.

Captivating

One reviewer wrote that she felt Johanna Trollope was her personal novelist, and that's just the way I feel. Her characters and their situations and emotions are very real to me. I love her style of writing.
Samantha Bond does an incredible job of reading this book.
Usually I just listen to books while walking or driving. This one I had to finish just sitting around because I had to know what happened.

Charming characters, absorbing story, excellent narration

Through deft character development, before I knew it I was thoroughly invested in the ‘match’, unsuitable or not. I was quite charmed by the children, and especially the precocious 4-year-old Grandson Jack.
Perfect, unobtrusive narration, speaks so well for the main character, Rose, but also for the others, male or female. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Disappointing. Characters were spoilt and entitled

Usually an incisive writer I didn't find a single character, or the way they behaved, likeable. The characters were entitled and behaved in a predictable way.
