The Fairy-Tale Matchmaker series takes a clever approach to the fairy tale genre. Rather than retelling a single story, E.D. Baker creates a world where many fairy tale characters coexist, and her protagonist Cory has the job of making sure they end up with the right partners. The concept allows Baker to play with dozens of familiar stories while telling an original one.
Four books published between 2014 and 2018 follow Cory through various matchmaking challenges. The Fairy-Tale Matchmaker introduces the premise, The Perfect Match and The Truest Heart raise the stakes, and The Magical Match wraps up the series. The books are aimed at the same middle grade audience as Baker’s other work, with humor and heart in equal measure.
