Publisher's summary

Carina Conte has had a crush on her brother Michael’s best friend, Max Gray, since she was a teenager back home in Italy. Now she’s earned her MBA and come to work at Michael’s new venture, America’s fastest-growing bakery empire. But some things never change: Her overprotective family still treats her like a child. With three drop-dead gorgeous siblings, she’s still the ugly duckling of the bunch. And Max, the company’s new CEO, still barely notices her.

Max knows Carina Conte is strictly off-limits, for the sake of his job and his friendship with Michael. But hot-blooded lust wins out at a conference when the two share a scorching one-night stand - and are busted by her mother! Now, forced by old-world Italian tradition into a marriage he’s not ready for, Max is miserable - and Carina is furious. Her new husband is about to realize that hell hath no fury like a woman transformed....

Same plot every time

First there is a kiss, then interrupted 1st base, third is sleep together 1 night o get it out of their system, fourth one says their past can't let them be in love, fifth one declares love and shot down, finally an epic show of love. Every book has been the same. Change the flow just a little.

when her sis in law gave birth

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

no not really

in love

so in love with this book. need more of them 2 read. most read everyone

This series is quickly becoming my guilty pleasure

Well, she did it again....another easy listening (simple) romance story that I really enjoyed. Much like the first two books, it's a little unbelievable and completely predictable but I can't help but like this series. So far this one was my favorite. If you like book 1 or book 2 then you will enjoy this one too.
Again, the narrator is great and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Entertaining Series Worth the Credits

Engaging relationships and liked the overlap of characters in each successive book. A bit of plot redundancy in books 1 & 2 with "fake" marriages. Humor in sexually charged scenes will have you smiling if not laughing--overall sexual dynamics get better in each book. Would love to read more by this author--narrator of 2nd book the best, 3rd narrator the worst.

Heart warming romance novel

Who was your favorite character and why?

Carina, I loved seeing Carina grow up, I liked seeing her come from the shy young women in book 2 to the mature self confident women in book 3

What about Madeleine Maby’s performance did you like?

Madeleine makes the characters unique and memorable

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I spent a day doing spring cleaning listening to this book made me want to clean to keep listening!

Any additional comments?

Can't wait to see how Max and Carina and all the other characters are in book 4!

Not a mistake but not that great

This was my first book by this author and it was okay for me. It is a typical romance with the expected happy ending. After I finished this book I realized it is one of three but I won't be getting the others. It just was interesting enough for me. Narrator was good.

Third one is a charm!

I was not at all disappointed! All three over these books are great. If you enjoy a happily ever after, I highly recommend this trilogy.

Love Love Love this

this has been anv excellent series. I can't wait I really hope the series continue. I really enjoyed this narrator also she has done an excellent job.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Marriage Mistake to be better than the print version?

I always love audio apose to books so that i can do other thing and still get threw my book. I like listening in the car and at night. The only thing is audio are more expensive

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Marriage Mistake?

Very suttal on how she got the book. I remender the other book loved it. cant wait till next sister to get the book.

Which scene was your favorite?

when she comes into her own... as far as her Art and her sexual being. i really like audio/ books that are realistic.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I think when Michael finds out about Corina and Max. How Max really wants her but he holds back.
