Who ‘s meddling with happily ever after?

The Wedding: its a set up.
The Break-up: its a con.
The Reconciliation: its a trap.

When high society bride, Samantha Carroll, devises an ingenious plan to ditch her meddling matchmaking mammas groom of choice, the bankers son, instead of the ordinary Irish guy Johnny Belen shes pining for, all pandemonium breaks loose.

In the meantime, Johnny has devised his own plan to thwart monster-mamma-in-laws matchmaking for the wedding of the season, but it is soon clear that Sam is not the type of girl who can be scooped up by just any man

Over the course of an extraordinary year, Zev Chafetsformer New York Daily News columnist and onetime director of the Israeli government press officetraveled the world to explore the improbable confluence of Jews and evangelicals. He spent quality time with Jerry Falwell, visited Jewish cadets at West Point, attended the world’s biggest Christian retail show, embarked on a road trip with the rabbi with the largest gentile following since Jesus, journeyed to the Holy Land with a band of repentant Christian pilgrims, and broke bread with George W. Bush and five hundred fellow Jewish Republicans.

A Match Made in Heaven is the penetrating, engaging, and often hilarious narrative of Chafets’s determined quest to get to the root of a very serious question: Why do evangelicals support Israel so strongly? Equal parts history, comedy, travelogue, and political tract, it is a smart and adventurous odyssey along a rapidly changing religious and political border.
