Publisher Description
A small-town romance. A one-night stand. And a ticket to love that might just cost her everything.
I never expected the guy I gave a parking ticket to would turn out to be the one to steal my heart. It started with a violation, then a second ticket for blocking a pedestrian zone, and then... well, let's just say that third ticket was the one I didn't write. That was the ticket to something much bigger—our one wild night together.
But life, of course, isn't that simple. Turns out, my unforgettable one-night stand is also my best friend's wedding planner. He's in town for three months, making deals, meeting everyone I know, and—oh, yeah—he's the main suspect in my very first police investigation. The case I need to solve to prove I'm worthy of a promotion to detective.
The problem? I'm falling for the guy. Hard. I've spent my life dreaming of this promotion, convinced I'd never find love. Now, I'm at a crossroads. Can I keep my career and my heart intact? Or will I lose it all in the process?
This hilarious, heartwarming small-town romance is the perfect mix of witty humor, steamy chemistry, and a heroine with everything to lose.
If you love laugh-out-loud romantic comedies with quirky characters, a dash of suspense, and a whole lot of heart, then this book is your next must-read. Buy now and let the sparks fly!

Delightful story!
Kristy is a police officer and a sixth-generation descendant of one of the founding families of the Cedar Falls, Michigan. Sheldon/Don Cooper is visiting Cedar Falls to help his sister adjust to moving there. They meet when Kristy writes Don a ticket for illegally parking his SUV. He receives a second ticket in short order from Kristy, and thus begins this interesting relationship. Unfortunately, there are questions and complications, and crimes and false accusations abound. Kristy wants to be a detective, so she spends time investigating all suspects, even when she’s sure they are innocent.
This story kept me intrigued. I thought I might know who was causing all of the trouble, but there was a major wrench toward the end that made me question everything!
I love the way these characters interact and I enjoyed the friendships that were portrayed. It seems like this is a stand-alone book that might be part of a larger series of books about this family-and now I’m interested in reading more.
Kristy starts off as a character finding her footing and does get stronger throughout the book. She realizes she has made some poor choices as far as describing her relationship with Don. After a period of introspection, she finally ‘mans up’ and doesn’t accept the small-minded limitations that have been imposed on her any longer. I loved this part of the book, because she finally grew into her powerful self!

3.5 Stars
Ticket to Love was a straight-forward romance with a cozy mystery element that helped make it a page-turner. The descriptive writing detailing the town and environs were a highlight. The exact kind of town that I would love to visit and explore. While I found both the H/h very likable, the romance was fairly sedate with some added conflict due to the mystery. If not for the mystery, I might have set the book aside. Matthews did a great job keeping me invested and interested in the outcome. Overall, enjoyable with added interest into the romances of possible future characters. (This is my voluntary and unbiased review of a complimentary copy of Ticket to Love via Ebook Discovery.)
