My Darling Bride

The Darlings

De: Ilsa Madden-Mills

Narrado por: Sebastian York, Savannah Peachwood

In a sizzling romance that sparkles with wit and depth, two wounded souls meet by chance in the desert and agree to get married, and their lives will never be the same.

On a normal day, Emmaline Darling isn’t a car thief. She’s just a simple girl who runs a bookstore and adores cats. But when she’s stranded in the desert and needs to get away from her dangerous ex-boyfriend, she picks her only option: swiping the keys to a famous football player’s Lamborghini and speeding away.

Football star Graham Harlan is in chaos. First he took a hit on the field that left him with a near-death experience, and now he’s promised his brother he’ll get married to secure the family inheritance. Trouble is he isn’t even seeing anyone.

Then a mystery woman steals his car. With his usual stubbornness, he tracks her all the way to Manhattan and gives her an ultimatum: marry me or I’ll press charges.

Her choice is obvious, only neither of them expect the sparks that ignite between them.

As the end of their arrangement looms, will Graham take a chance on love or let his darling walk away forever?

Worth the credit

This story starts out with a unlikely meet cute that snowballs into a much bigger deal. Emma and Graham don’t seem to have much in common, on the surface, but things have a strange way of working out for these two.

My Darling Bride

I loved the personalities of the characters and their interaction . The events of the story were exciting . Once I started the story, I couldn't stop until it was completed. The premonition of meeting G's "one and only" during his near death experience, was the reader's warning of what was to come. This story was unforgettable and the happy ending was a great "high" for me as a reader. I will probably want to read this again . The one thing that detracted from the story was the excessive use of the word f... . They didn't add to the telling of the story at all. I checked the narrative or sentences , leaving out the excessive cuss word and they were just as powerful without it. To be an adult does not equate to bad language to emphasize a point. An occasional explicative is OK but the author didn't seem to know when to stop using them. If the reader is not offended with excessive language and explicit sex scenes you will enjoy this story and I can recommend it as a great read.

Really enjoyed it!

This audiobook is exactly what I needed. Love the performance so good! The story was sweet and different as well as profound. A really good book!

Darling story.

I enjoyed My Darling Bride so much, I’ve read it and listened to it twice. The story was so delightful, the main characters were so lovable and the side characters like Barbs, Jane, Andrew, Brody, Jasper, London and Magic were the icing on the cake. I laughed, a lot, I was totally entertained by this story. It had a little bit of everything, great plot, great characters, spice level was hot. I really hope Jane gets her own story.
