The Hanukkah Matchmaker
A Holiday Romance

About this book:

Hannah Stern built her matchmaking empire on data, logic, and an eighty-two percent success rate. She doesn't believe in magic—she believes in metrics. But when Sterling Financial hires her to run an "Eight Nights of Opportunity" program for their workaholic executives ahead of the Hanukkah Gala, her algorithm hits a wall named Gabriel Vance. The firm's brilliant, ruthless Risk Director treats romance like a failing asset class: high variance, negative equity, and statistically doomed. He agrees to participate only to prove her system is snake oil. When his own survey yields zero compatible matches above fifty-eight percent, the numbers say she should walk away.

The problem? Hannah isn't convinced the data tells the whole story. Behind Gabe's spreadsheets and cynicism, she sees a man who doesn't avoid connection because he doesn't want it—he avoids it because he's terrified of getting it wrong. And the more she studies his footnoted answers, the more she suspects the only variable her algorithm can't account for is the one standing in his doorway, challenging every assumption he's ever made about risk, reward, and the mathematics of the heart.

Eight nights. One stubborn executive. A matchmaker who might just be the anomaly his models never predicted. *The Hanukkah Matchmaker* is a witty, warm enemies-to-lovers holiday romance where love isn't a calculation—it's the only risk worth taking.
