Pink haired bartenders, a slot machine, and sealing wax manage to reunite these two driven, work obsessed people for a chance at love.Mirjam is wrapping up a conference, and trying to determine just what went wrong with her app functions. All work and no play, she has one night left in Vegas, and the bartender with pink hair has demanded she take a chance on a slot machine.  Out pops an envelope, sealed with wax and providing her with details for her blind date.Riley had a similar experience, and similar envelope: with a location to meet his blind date.  Separated during the summer after grade 1o, Riley had been working his way to asking Mirjam on a date, only to never see her again.This was such a cute set-up for an instant attraction story, layered with clever conversation, some clever geeky inserts and a steamy night of passion make this a quick, short and satisfying read.  More importantly, the characters were built solidly, with distinctive voices and qualities that made them feel real, and their connection believable.  Angela Quarles has created a clever little story with a unique matchmaker that will make you smile.I received an eBook from the author for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
