By: Kristen Painter

Length: 8 hrs and 26 mins

Publisher's Summary

Welcome to Nocturne Falls, the town that celebrates Halloween 365 days a year.

The tourists think it's all a show: the vampires, the werewolves, the witches, the occasional gargoyle flying through the sky. But the supernaturals populating the town know better.

Living in Nocturne Falls means being yourself. Fangs, fur, and all.

Las Vegas headliner and vampire Desdemona Valentine is one cool, collected diva on the outside. On the inside she's petrified of falling in love after her last relationship nearly killed her...literally. Protecting her wounded heart makes for a lonely life, but she has her fame and fortune to keep her company. Who needs anything more?

Julian Ellingham does. One look at Desdemona onstage, and the vampire is smitten. She initially ignores him, but his relentless pursuit pays off when a wild night ends in a Vegas wedding. Finally Julian has everything he wants while all Desdemona wants is...a divorce.

Julian sweet-talks Desdemona into letting him prove his love, but his time is running out. Especially after someone repeatedly tries to turn his bride to ash. When Desdemona flees Vegas for the spooky streets of Nocturne Falls and Julian's protection, he's more than willing to help out. But can he convince Desdemona to trust him, or will "death do us part" become a reality?

This series is addictive

I am decidedly not a romance reader, but somehow I love this series! The world building is clever, the narrator is talented and the stories have just enough of a twist in the mystery to keep me wondering about the plot even though I know there will be a happy ending. I really enjoy the romantic tension without the graphic details (why can't everyone do this ?) . The author has managed to write a romance series that even this romance series hater truly enjoys.

Accidentally Wonderful

As with all Kristen's books, this was amazing! There aren't good enough words to express how great her books are. I loved these characters. Desdemona is a great match for Julian. It was interesting who was stalking her. We have a mention of Harlan. I hope he gets a book soon. I just love him. Of course, my favorite, Birdie, plays a huge role in this one. I can't wait for you to read/listen to it.

Who could resist this narrator? He is by far one of the best voices out there. He is a natural talent at all different voices.

BJ Harrison just gets better and better!

Any additional comments?

Kristen Painter's The Vampire's Accidental Wife, Nocturne Falls #8, is narrated by the wonderful BJ Harrison.

This may be my favorite BJ Harrison yet! His ability to change his voice for so many diverse characters is incredible. There is no doubt who is speaking in the book when you listen to BJ Harrison.

Solid 5 stars across the board.

Love is in the air

Another winner. I cannot express how much i love this series. This one is about Julian and the woman he loves. However, Destimona is afraid to love because of a bad experience in her past. They get married in Vegas and she does not even remember. Now someone is stalking her. She goes back to Nocturne Falls to try and hide while they try to decide if they will stay married and also to keep her safe till they can find out who is staling her. However, the stalker follows. Will Julian be able to keep her safe? This is a must read.

LOVE IT!<br />

SO MUCH FUN LISTENING TO THIS BOOK. LOVE THE STORY AND THE CHARACTERS! THE READING IS AWESOME!! LOVE THIS SERIES!

Julian

desi was not a likeable character at all early on in the story. she evoked some pretty strong emotions from this reader, which is a testament to the author's talent. I couldn't connect with her on any level.

Julian I loved the insight into his character and his playboy ways. I'm sad to be almost finished with this series. They were so enjoyable and entertaining. I LOVED the narrator he did a fantastic job throughout.

Happy for Julian

Playboy finally shows his true nature. He falls hard, for a woman who doesn't want him. Excellent as always. Beautifully narrates

A whole lot of fun

Another Nocturn Falls book. I love this series. It's not literary genius, but the series is clever and a whole lot of fun.

I fell in love with Nocturn Falls in book 1 . The Vampire's Mail-order Bride when it was on sale through Bookbub.
Then I bought the whole series.

In Nocturn Falls, supernaturals have a safe haven. It is a town where every day is Halloween. The supernaturals are just like everyone else, but they have special gifts. In this town, everyone seems to have love issues.

I adore Julian and it was fun to have him finally get his own story. I can't wait until Aunt Bertie also gets her own book. She was pretty bad-ass in this one.

fun series

this is such a fun series. And all the spin-offs that come from it and the characters in this current series are just amazing.
good writing also
