4-6Fairy-Tale Matchmaker series.
This fourth series entry finds former tooth-fairy-in-training Cory working hard in her new role as matchmaking Cupid. Cory is likable, but other characters are rather flat and their adventures feel disjointed; a protracted scene in which goblins kidnap Cory prior to her mother's wedding seems particularly misplaced. Still, series fans should enjoy this book's ogres, witches, and humorous magic.
