Our matchmaker gets asked to attend a romance convention, where an author ends up being poisoned to death. This brings Detective Kyle Carter and Miss Dove back together again. Miss Dove (Angie) also runs in to her ex-boyfriend who has come back to take over the family's publishing company post his father's passing.
The sister, her estranged husband, and a heckling fan all become suspects in the author's murder. When her ex is brought in for questioning, Angie calls her father, former detective played by Bruce Boxleitner, and tries to get information out of Detective Kyle. Angie proceeds to start looking in to the killer, if only to help her former ex...this starts with looking for the mysterious enraged fan. "Angie, I don't think you should be meddling in an active police investigation."
"Expectations can be like a blindfold. We can get so caught up in what we think we should have in a partner, that we close ourselves off to opportunities."
"My mother always said she had a way with words, too bad you couldn't repeat most of them."
"Romance can happen at any time."
I like both of our main actors...but I am waiting to warm to their chemistry.

6/10 - okay mystery set at a book festival's best moment is its tap back to Knives Out
The second Matchmaker Mystery is much better than the first. However, the publishing guy has got to go. Mommy this and Mommy that. Sickening.
Angie Dove (Danica McKellar) has been invited to moderate a panel at a romance convention being held in town. No, she hasn't started writing books of any kind, but she is so well known locally for her matchmaking TV show, she is a natural fit. This does put her back into contact with Ethan, her ex-boyfriend who has taken over a publishing company from his late mother. Among his authors are Beatrice Penn (Anne Marie DeLuise), a best-selling author with a huge fan base.
She later dies from poisoning and there's a few suspects, one of them being Angie's ex-flame ...
Motives and suspects are well-woven with the puzzle fitting place at the finale, not after much investigating from Angie. The actress who plays her is quite lively and charming, her chemistry with the detective isn't too strong. Plus he looks a little too lethargic, or maybe he's meant to be that way. This is otherwise a fairly lively mystery with a dollop of a light touch.
