Truly, Madly: A Lucy Valentine Novel by Heather Webber

Truly, Madly by Heather Webber - 316 pages

Lucy Valentine is coerced into running Valentine Matchmaking while her father recuperates from a heart attack and a cheating scandal in the Caribbean.  What the world doesn't know is that Valentine Matchmaking is so successful because the Valentine family is psychic, allowing them to read auras and match people perfectly.  Unfortunately, Lucy does not have that gift.  Her gift was transformed into a gift for finding lost objects when she was shocked by electricity when a teen.  She has no idea how she will be able to run the matchmaking agency while her father is out of town.  Then she "sees" a missing ring on a skeleton and enlists the detective in the office upstairs to help her find the dead body.  It only gets worse from there.
I really enjoyed this book.  I enjoyed the mystery component of the book even though I figured it out about halfway through the book.  I did find it interesting that a book about matchmaking did not have a lot of actual romance in it.  It was more a mystery.  It will be interesting to see if that continues through the series or if it becomes more of a romance.
