Mistakenly Married

By: Victorine E. Lieske

Narrated by: Sarah May Scotti

Penny's gotten herself into another one of her crazy messes. She's broke and about to be evicted. When her online boyfriend suggests they elope, she agrees. Why not? She loves him, even though she hasn't met him, so she blows the last of her cash on a fun Las Vegas wedding. Except, William stands her up and the limo driver picks up the wrong guy. A smokin' hot wrong guy. Too bad she doesn't find out who he really is until after the wedding.

Harrison Williams needs a wife to gain access to his trust fund account. He goes to Las Vegas to meet someone, but there's a mix up and he ends up at the Chapel-O-Love exchanging vows with Penny, a spirited girl in a cheap veil. When they realize the mistake, he convinces her to go back to Bel Air with him to prove that he's married, and he agrees to pretend to be William so her family doesn't have to know about her big mistake. Sounds like a good plan. What could go wrong?

Mistakenly Married is a sweet, clean romantic comedy.

I really liked this one

Best in this series so far. I enjoyed the love birds in this one. It didn’t feel forced. Got me through a slow work day.

Narrator was great!

I loved the narrator. She did a great job on the various voices and pacing of the book.

As for the book itself, the storyline was okay. The plot was good. As always, this couple could have used some great advice before they reached adulthood. Main great advice: Communicate, communicate, communicate. Talk to each other.

My main issue with the book (besides the communicate one) is that there were a lot of slang words. No, none of them were "bad," but you knew exactly what she meant when she said them. Or what she would have said if the book hadn't been written by a clean author.

I liked the ending, but can't tell you exactly why due to spoilers.

I've found a new author!

WHAT IT'S ABOUT
Penny’s gotten herself into another one of her crazy messes. She’s broke and about to be evicted. When her online boyfriend suggests they elope, she agrees. Why not? She loves him, even though she hasn’t met him, so she blows the last of her cash on a fun Las Vegas wedding. Except, William stands her up and the limo driver picks up the wrong guy. A smokin’ hot wrong guy. Too bad she doesn’t find out who he really is until after the wedding.

Harrison Williams needs a wife to gain access to his trust fund account. He goes to Las Vegas to meet someone, but there’s a mix up and he ends up at the Chapel-O-Love exchanging vows with Penny, a spirited girl in a cheap veil. When they realize the mistake, he convinces her to go back to Bel Air with him to prove that he’s married, and he agrees to pretend to be William so her family doesn’t have to know about her big mistake. Sounds like a good plan. What could go wrong?

MY TAKE
This is a fun story, and I found the main characters very engaging. The differences in their lifestyles and expectations couldn't be much different. Penny's such a sincere and kindhearted girl. She's so different from anyone Harrison's ever known before.

Even though they don't spend a lot of time together in the story, it feels like a longer time because they are in each other's company so much. They each find things to like and admire in the other, and they each become a champion to the other.

While there's a "Sabrina" feel to some elements of the story, it was unique enough in its presentation that it didn't detract from my enjoyment.

The narrator did a decent job with the story. My only complaint would be that the sound was a bit tinny.

4 1/2 stars

Yahoo, very good

This book was great. I thought Penny and he mistakes were funny. They way she meets Harrison is great. I liked the way Penny and Harrison worked their marriage out. The step Mom sure was mean and hard on them. But the families learned to deal with each other.
This is a clean and very appropriate for everyone. I have enjoyed this writers books and hope you will read more of her work.

Not what it seems...

It was really great. The only thing that could've made it better was more text conversations with William to get a sense of why we should like the guy. Other than that, great characters, lots of fun, good, funny, and clean. Also nerdy too...
