Nine Matchmakers Have the Tables of Romance Turned on Them

Nine Meddling Matchmakers Find Love When They Least Expect It

Meet nine women of the late 1800s who have found themselves in the role of matchmaker. They think they have mastered the art of recognizing romantic potential in others, but when it comes to their own lives they have been unlucky in love.

But what will it take to get these ladies to say "I do"?
