In the second book of the Suitehearts series, magical Matchmakers and cousins Cora and Rose attend an elite summer training camp where rivals, romances, and troublesome Kindlings await. A cozy fantasy perfect for fans of Whatever After by Sarah Mlynowski.

You're invited to Camp Hotel Coeur!

It's Hotel Coeur's turn to host the annual training camp for Matchmakers-in-training, and they're going all out: charm classes, enchantment exercises, matchmaking competitions, even a magically designed buddy system.

After conquering their first matchmaking tests, Rose and Cora feel ready to face anything. After all, what could be harder than headstrong Kindlings, broken hearts, and brand-new magic?

But this magical camp doesn't play by the rules.

Cora, who just wants to lie low, is suddenly thrust into the spotlight for her unique magical abilities and paired with newbie Matchmaker Hunter—who's cool, charismatic...and her total opposite.

Rose is paired with her nemesis, Julien Swift—her biggest competition for years. Rose is determined to outshine him, but lately nothing seems to be going right for her...not even her magic.

To succeed, Rose and Cora will have to take on new friends, magical mishaps, a dash of romance, and fiercer challenges than ever on their journey to become Hotel Coeur's finest Matchmakers.

Perfect for fans of Witchlings and the Friendship List series, this spectacular sequel will see readers charmed by the same thrills and magic that started Cora and Rose's journey as these two Matchmakers soar to even greater heights.

      Magical cousins Cora and Rose Seville hone their skills and face new challenges at a two-week camp for Matchmakers-in-training. Emotional Type A Rose is excited to be a counselor at the Matchmaking camp taking place at Hotel Coeur, "the most dazzling and romantic hotel in the history of hotels." Along with studious Cora and 98 other hopefuls, Rose will be making friends, learning new skills, and (if she masters the required elements) testing for promotion and vying for Wunderkind status. The buddy locator spell pairs Year 12 Cora with Hunter Cosmos from Year 14. Meanwhile, much to her dismay, Y12 Rose is paired with Julien Swift, "her former-nemesis-because-she-was-supposed-to-be-a-better-person-now." As they work through lessons and challenges, Rose eventually comes to respect her recalcitrant guidebook, changing its name from the Beast to Sunrise. Cora's guidebook, Scyther, is a steadying force, advising her through the successful completion of a Whirlwind Match. The chapters alternately focus on Rose's and Cora's third-person perspectives. The plotlines thoughtfully explore the importance of embracing teamwork while also valuing individual strengths and acknowledging the reality that some people work best on their own. Readers jumping straight into this second series entry may be temporarily baffled by some of the worldbuilding and vocabulary, but the characters' relationships shine through. Rose and Cora are Black; Rose's mother is white, and there's diversity among the secondary cast. A sequel with heart for aspiring cupids. (Fantasy. 9-13)
