Heartfelt and magical, THE MATCHMAKER’S GIFT is about two women from two different eras—a matchmaker and her divorce attorney granddaughter—who defy societal expectations and embrace their unique gift for seeing soulmates in the most unexpected of places.
As Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Magnolia Palace, notes “Loigman brilliantly illuminates the struggle of two women, generations apart, torn between society’s traditions and expectations and their own personal fulfillment.” THE MATCHMAKER’S GIFT is a truly special novel and we look forward to discussing prominent plans for coverage of this book with you soon.
Lynda Cohen Loigman grew up in Longmeadow, MA. She received a B.A. in English and American Literature from Harvard College and a J.D. from Columbia Law School. Her debut novel, Two-Family House, was a USA Today bestseller and a nominee for the Goodreads 2016 Choice Awards in Historical Fiction. Her second novel, The Wartime Sisters, was selected as a Woman’s World Book Club pick and a Best Book of 2019 by Real Simple Magazine. The Matchmakers Gift is her third novel.
Copies of Matcher's Gift can be purchased online via Bronx River Books or onsite at the event.
