Surprise Groom

Marital Bliss, Book 1

De: D.J. Jamison

Narrado por: Kenneth Obi

Can two men fake their way to marital bliss?

Caleb Taylor is shocked to learn his family could lose Bliss Island Resort - their home and livelihood - unless he makes use of a clause to marry the child of investor Louis Chastain. Sofia Chastain is more like a sister than a love interest. And Caleb isn’t ready to sign over his future. But Sofia has a brother, and Caleb has a plan.

Julien Chastain was disowned at 15 and has made a life as a go-go dancer in Miami, but he lives paycheck to paycheck. When his childhood friend proposes an outlandish marriage contract, he thinks he’s crazy. But it’s a chance at a future that’s tough to pass up.

Caleb and Julien must present themselves as an authentic couple for the legal loophole to work, but the lines between “fake” and “real” keep shifting as they navigate intimacy, public scrutiny, and sabotage.

Love isn't part of the plan, but plans change. If they can outsmart Julien's father and prove that their love is worth more than a transaction, they just might find a true happily ever after.

Loved it!!

I thoroughly enjoyed Surprise Groom! Kenneth Obi narrated it perfectly. I loved how Caleb and Julian came together as friends after so many years apart. I had read the book and absolutely loved the audio version as well. Highly recommend it!!

A fake turns real romance that works

I appreciated the reviews I read prior, though I didn't have a problem with the narration it was good not to expect folks from New England would sound like they were from New England. I liked both the MCs. Enjoyed watching the shift from go-go dancer to photographer, and the workaholic finding his way to being present for his life. The evil father figure was rather two dimensional, but otherwise, it was a lovely romance.

Love finds a way

This is a wonderfully written story about Caleb and Julien, two childhood friends. In order to save his home, Bliss Island, Caleb propositioned Julien into marrying him. What started out as a fake romance turned into so much more. Caleb and Julien really are so good for each other. I'm glad they got their happy ending. I can see them happily working together on the island for years to come, Caleb as a wedding planner and Julien as the photographer.
Narrator Kenneth Obi does a fabulous job.

the book was good the narration was horrible

although the book left you with a questions at the end that I did not like and I do felt like the altar did. Review and research contract law and Financial laws in Maine very well. it was the narrator that took the most away from the story. the main character Caleb sounded more like a mixture between Jimmy Stewart in Forrest Gump. the only reason I didn't return the audible was because I was traveling and didn't have time to buy another story

All the feels you could possibly want!

Julian and Caleb’s story: add some good friends, some good family, a devious father, some hot and bothered sexy moments and a whole lot of Love and you’ve got a recipe for a great read!!! Love does have a way of conquering all!
