Publisher's Summary

A rock star kidnaps a runaway bride....

Kidnapping the bride seemed like a good idea at the time.

Her fiancé stole my fortune, so I stole his woman.

Tit for tat. Or tat for tit. However you want to look at it.

The one thing I didn’t expect?

Willow Honeycutt, preschool teacher, boy band super fan, is completely crazy.

And somehow she’s turned the tables on me.

Now, she’s holding me hostage, and she won’t let me go until we hit every item on her sparkly new, completely insane bucket list.

And that last item?

That last item might cost me more than any fortune.

It very well might cost me my heart.

Rockaway Bride is a romping fun romance between a down-on-his-luck rock star and a boy band-loving preschool teacher, complete with a road trip, handcuffs, and fun with nuns. This romantic comedy stands alone with no cheating or cliffhangers and ends with a rockin' awesome happily ever after.

A 5 ⭐️ SCREWBALL LOL ROM COM

Oh Pippa, Pippa, Pippa.. what an outstanding hilarious Rom Com this was.. with its loveable characters, riotous lol plot and sweet sexy times - me thinks you’ve written pure gold. I mistakenly started this book at bedtime.. and I had to keep saying sorry.. sorry.. sorry to my sleepy husband as my laughs, sniggers and snorts shook the bed til 3. I was all in as the sizzles and tension grew.. as the angst and sparks ignited.. and, as a swoony romance unfurlled to reveal a jaded down-on-his-luck Rock God who slowly becomes bewildered and bewitched by a quirky good girl preschool Teacher who everyone falls in love with.

And who better to bring this riotous adventure, and its many characters, to life other than the two 5 star voices of Savannah and Jason (swoon and wipe my drool) because their voices fit the characters so perfectly, they brought the humor and the happiness to each and every scene.. and together they made Dax and Willow’s crazy journey of self discovery so much fun to listen to.

Worth a credit? I absolutely loved every wild, weird and wonderful thing about this book. Pippa’s comedic writing skills, her pace and her multi-charactered plot had me in tears at times even if there was a sensible side too.. and yes, IMO, this is abso..fudge sticks..lutely creditworthy.

Absolute Audible Brilliance!

How can you go wrong when a rock star kidnaps a runaway bride? If you were head over heels for Charming as Puck, loving this book is practically a given. If you have not read Charming as Puck, it is not required, but there are some characters crossing both books. In short, this book is hilarious! I laughed out loud so many times, mostly in inappropriate situations. The translation of swear words to make them kindergarten friendly is genius (crap = pfeffernoose)! The nicknames are perfection, especially the nuns! The adventure is never-ever anticipated. I never knew what would happen next because it was completely unpredictable. I can honestly say that I never expected a dildo fight by the side of the road... Funny, sexy, absolutely entertaining, audible perfection!

With Rockaway Bride not only do we get more brilliance from Pippa Grant, but we get narration perfection with Savannah Peachwood and Jason Clarke. Jason Clarke is an auto-buy for me, but hearing him say "Doodoo head" (and so many other hilarious and sexy things) was everything!

Worth a credit. I will listen again!

What a SWEET SURPRISE!

I was captivated by page One in THIS fun filled, fast-paced, sexy yet while your panties get a tad damp you'll also be laughing and IF you are anything like myself; that's to say with a quirky sense of humor, that laughing gets rather out of hand so that's a helpful hint as so to be wary as to where & when you gift yourself the ULTIMATE PLEASURE AND READ/LISTEN to this AMAZINGLY WELL WRITTEN Novel! For I found myself quite embarrassed waking up my entire family late last night from all my heart felt laughter..And yeppers they all think I'm crazy! I hope you treat yourself and listen to this Audible and enjoy it as much as I did!
Best Wishes Friends!

Rockaway Bride, a runaway hit

Very funny, very realistic. At first glance, I thought the title was a play on "Rockaway Beach"by the Ramones. I saw the reviews saying it was LOL funny but my sense of humor isn't typical nor mainstream. I'm pleased to say this book exceeded my expectations yet delivered a realistic scenario during the serious times.
Also, this author didn't make nuns out to be condescending, inhuman and disapproving shriveled-up prunes. I like the balance of piety and pragmatic interactions with the world outside. No Catholic bashing!
I don't write reviews for most books, that should tell you that this is definitely a must get listen IMHO (in my humble opinion).

Kept me laughing

Since I listen to most books with my headphones on people tend to stare when you actually LOL. But man oh man it was worth it!!! So funny, witty, romantic and just the right amount of steam!! 👍🏻👍🏻
I actually want more....I could listen to Dax & Willow Stories all day!

Lighthearted Fun!

Love stories that are fun and light without excessive angst, and this one is just all that!

Savannah Peachwood and Jason Clarke are fabulous as usual.

Recommended story! Short and fun listen.

Sigh, lol and cheer

I love all of Pippa Grants books, I only listen to audio however, so I couldn’t listen in complete reading order as some aren’t out on audio. That said it really doesn’t matter as they can be read stand alone.
The narration is fantastic as is the story. The nuns ! Love them. They are meant for each other Dax and Willow. Now on to the next when it’s available.
Worth the credit .

Super cute and funny!

This is a super funny and sweet ROM COM, The narration is perfect and on point with their personalities. I enjoyed every second!

Best road trip adventure ever!

Dax and Willow have the most fun adventures as Dax helps Willow discover herself and recover from an almost horrible wedding of epic proportions! Narration is spot on!

It all started with handcuffs

Willow is dreading her wedding to her long time boyfriend. He is fine but there really isn't any excitement there. When her stepbrothers the Prince's of Stuland offer to help her run away she thinks it's funny, that is until she wakes up hung over and handcuffed to a hot rock star.

Dax is desperate after the dipweed stole all his money. He decided to kidnap his bride to be to get his money back. Not his best plan but desperate times call for desperate measures. Turns out it was the best decision of his life. Willow shows him what he has been missing and he does the same for her.

This book is so funny from dangerous donkeys to a dozen nuns and an adventure to be remembered for a lifetime. I loved everything about this book.

Jason Clarke and Savannah Peachwood are so much pleasure to listen to. They were the perfect choice for Dax and Willow. I enjoyed listening to both of them from start to end.

Excellent narration, stand alone rom com

The narration really added to the book. Both narrators did an amazing job and brought the story to life with their voice acting.

It is a stand alone story, but characters overlap with other Pippa Grant series. I wish I had read previous books a little more recently to know if I should have recognized Dax from prior books. My favorite part of the book was the nicknames for the nuns, and Jason Clarke’s delivery of them like the were actual names. This was my favorite of the girl band series so far.

Absolutely loved this wild ride

This book was so much fun. The rockstar kidnaps the runaway bride and somehow the tables get turned on him. My favorite part of the book was the adventures they ended up finding themselves on. So much opportunity for comedy, sweet moments and some sexy times.
This book is exactly what I would expect from Pippa Grant. Humor mixed in with great characters. Highly recommend.

Awesome

I LOVED this! Fun, funny and steamy, a thoroughly engrossing book. Fabulous narration. Don’t miss it!

Dax & Willow!

Pippa Grant is fast becoming my go to author for romantic comedies. Every book of hers I have listened to is low angst, laugh out loud funny, enough steam to keep me happy and the characters are wonderful! This one is extremely entertaining. Dax, popular rockstar kidnaps Willow, a runaway bride from her future husband. Caught up in lust and adventure, these two embark on a new kind of relationship, finding that not only are things not always what they seem, but you may find life and love while checking off a bucket list! Loved every minute, with it's funny scenes, crazy antics and had that warm feeling throughout the entire story.

Narrated by the talents of Jason Clarke and Savannah Peachwood, we had a team that lets it all out there. From amazing comedic timing, to passion filled, steamy scenes, this dynamic duo brought Dax and Willow to life. A better fit for personalities could not have been found. I loved their performance.

What a fun crazy ride!

Willow is about to get married but doubting it, and then she’s kidnapped by a rock star. Pippa Grant has a big imagination. The journey Willow and Dax go through, both finding themselves in the process was sweet, sometimes sad and also full of fun. Aaaand totally sexy! I so enjoyed this story, I need to listen to it again to see if I missed something. The narrators were so in point. Mr Clarke’s sexy voice and Ms Peachwood brought a life to it.

Wonderful story with great characters

This wild journey of Dax and Willow is a laugh a minute story well worth the 5 star rating. It was good to meet old friends from previous books (Ares, Zeus and Sia)
The narrators did an amazing job of bringing all the characters to life and I highly recommend this romcom. ❤❤

A fun adventure

I read this ebook initially but then I had the opportunity to listen to the audiobook and with the narration team of Savannah Peachwood and Jason Clarke, I just knew it would be great. And it was. The raspy, growly voice of Jason Clarke as Dax and the beautifully smooth voice of Savannah Peachwood as Willow were music to my ears. This narration was perfect.

The book itself was a lot of fun as well. After Dax "kidnaps" Willow on her wedding day (although she wanted to run from her wedding so she took the opportunity to go with Dax), she decides that he's just the guy to bring her around Europe. Commence road trip. I adored Willow- she's a sweetheart on almost all planes but she's also a really strong character. And Dax needs this strength- he's a bit lost. He's a rockstar but he doesn't remember why he's doing what he's doing and now that he's lost all his money (Willow's ex-fiance is a thief). he is a bit desperate. I love how Willow slowly brings him out with her innocence and goodness. There were some really fun and hilarious situations although I didn't feel like this book was as funny as some other ones from the author. And with fun supporting characters, I really loved my second foray into the Rockaway Bride story.

what happened to the bonus epilogue Audible?

I loved this book, great fun, I'm glad I had headphones for some bits ;)

but where did the bonus epilogue go? it said there was one and then there wasnt.

The book was still 5 stars, I just missed it
