Marry Me at Dawn

Romano Family, Book 6

By: Lucinda Whitney

Narrated by: Mary Jane Conlon

He’s afraid of commitment. She yearns for a family of her own. How can they turn a marriage of convenience into happily ever after?

To Damian Vaughn, image is everything. As CEO of the family business and heir to a fortune, he lives his life above reproach, not wanting to repeat his father’s mistakes that almost brought the company to ruin.

Gabriela Romano has discovered she’ll never be able to bear children. Distraught and still recovering from surgery, she leaves for an extended vacation in the Azores Islands, far away from her family’s prying eyes and the constant reminders of what she’ll never have.

When social services drop off a baby they say legally belongs to Damian, he knows it’s not true, but the media will be quick to judge if the news leaks. Desperate to avoid a disaster, he takes his lawyer’s drastic suggestion and proposes to Gabriela, a woman he’s just met. She has her own reasons for accepting, and as long as she guards her heart, she’s confident she’ll be fine.

But as sparks start to fly, Gabriela begins to wonder - how can she turn this marriage of convenience into her happily ever after?

The Romano Family series follows the stories of the Romano cousins of Northern Portugal as they find love and their happily ever afters. Each book may be enjoyed as a stand-alone.

My favorite book of the series!

The Romano Family series is so good! Marry Me at Dawn is such a wonderful addition/ending to the series. This is a beautifully written marriage of convenience story, and it doesn’t hurt that there’s a baby involved! I loved it! The narrator did a fantastic job! Highly recommend!

Great Book

I've read almost all the books in this series and have loved each one but this is by far my favorite! I loved sweet little Claire. Gabriella's and Damion's relationship was beautiful! I couldn't help but cry as well. This is a book that I will definitely listen to again!

Doing it Backwards

This was such a great book and a super cute story. They may have done everything backwards, but it all worked out in the end. The narrator was good and engaging.

The Romano Family has my heart.

I have adored this whole series, but this one especially hit close to home. It is a super sweet inspiring romance with real struggles of a woman not able to have kids. Having had my own struggles in that area, I loved Lucinda's gentle approach to the subject and the beautiful romance that buds as a result.

Mary Jane Conlon is a delight to listen to. Her use of the Portuguese accent is so well done I feel like I am listening to a native speaker. That, combined with the beautiful descriptions of the whole series have me aching to visit Portugal myself.

Convenience becomes love

I’m not usually a big fan of marriages of convenience, but this is well done. Each party needs something and they fill a hole in the other person’s life that they didn’t recognize at first.
The narrator does a lovely job.
Take a chance and get to know Damien Vaughn and Gabriela Romano.
