Cute Book

Barb did a wonderful job with Eden. She is such a lovely lady and went through a lot just to find love. It was wonderful that Andrew finally figured out what he wanted and this is just such a great love story. Love it :)

Mail order brides

This was a sweet story of having faith in God and meeting the woman who is going to be your wife. Andrew ordered a mail order bride but t ings didn^t turn out exactly as planned. I loved the story. It has humor and keeps you wanting to hear more. I was given a copy for an honest review. I highly recommend this story.

Delightfully Deluded

I can only imagine the strength and bravery it would take to be a mail order bride. Not all arrangements work out as expected, but in a twist of fate, it is possible that love can win out.

This is such a sweet story. I highly recommend it!

Love These Hays Characters

I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. Now this is a different twist on the mail order brides but I loved it. I like the fickle nature 0f the h. She is the one who is wrong but constantly makes the H feel like he is doing something to her. She has no money, he pays for the room then she tells him to sleep on the floor. Too weird for words. I am also glad that the pastor found someone after losing his wife in several books back. The pastor's mother is a hoot and she makes my day each time she gets up to her shenanigans. The HEAs always make me sigh and the narrator brings the story to life.

Delightful from start to finish

Mail order brides have such a hard life never knowing if the one they pick is real or not. What if you became one travel so many miles to find out this is not the man you thought he was? You really have to wonder how many times this did happen and just what the poor women did. Come take a listen about one woman who found the man not to be who he said he was and wanted way more then she was willing to give as she takes off running as fast as he can She finds she might have jumped from the frying pan into the fire as she tells one too many lies to get away from her groom to be. What you will find between these pages will make you laugh, want to cry as you hold your breath wondering just how can it get any worse as this author weaves her way right in to your heart with a plot that makes you want to close your eyes an pray.

Ms. Kelly does a wonderful job narrating from her wonderful character voices to the delightful emotions she puts into her audios. You can hear the emotions that each character is going through as well as the fear, happiness and sorrow they must go through. There are no background noise, no repeating of words, no volume changes. If any breaks were taken I could not tell. I always knew who was talking, what they were going through. She really brought the characters to life pulling me in and painting a picture I could see in my mind. I could really hear the desperation in Eden’s voice and the angry at being dupe in Andrews’s voice. This is a very clean, crisp audio that is very realistic that you almost feel like you are watching a movie. I really enjoyed how she show the sparks flying between these two and how she really brought out their true feeling for each other and other characters. Her male voices were just as good as her female voices. I totally enjoyed listening to this audio.

What really made this audio for me was how realistic the scenes where, this is a very believable story that really touches you heart. It is about what one woman is willing to do to get away from a man she can’t trust to find a better life for herself. She doesn’t plan things out very well and gets into one mess after another with lies on top of lies. One man who does a good deed wishes he has looked the other way. It is so true no good deed goes unpunished but in this case the plot thickens as Andrew has to deal with his own issues of what he has waiting at home for him. I really liked the preacher and his outlook on marrying mail order brides as well as his mother and her matchmaking ways. There are many twists and turns with danger around the corner. There was a time or two when my heart was in my throat. It is a very well thought out story that holds the listeners attention getting you involved yelling at the characters. I totally enjoyed it from start to finish and really wished all mail order brides who find their selves in a mess had an Andrew to save them.
