Publisher's summary

Marry a man I barely know to save my family from ruin.

It might’ve been simple, if my betrothed were anybody else.

On our wedding day, my husband-to-be arrived at the courthouse like a black cloud rolling over Manhattan. Walt didn’t crack smiles or pepper in pleasantries as we exchanged hollow vows in front of the judge.

His disdain for me was so palpable I assumed we’d walk out of that ceremony and resume our regularly scheduled programming. But then fate was like, Hold my beer. I got this.

In desperate need of help and with nowhere else to turn, I had no choice but to ignore a crucial rule in our contract: I shall only contact Mr. Jennings II in case of emergency. But hey, what’s a little fine print between husband and wife?

Turns out, Walt’s a stickler for legalese - I think it might be his love language. Oh, and his attitude at the courthouse wasn’t a put-on. My so-called husband is a jerk. He takes what he wants without giving any consideration to other people - specifically ME, his blushing, contractually obligated bride!

I knew life with Walt would be no honeymoon, but a marriage of any sort should still come with a few standard guarantees:

To have and to hold.

For richer or poorer.

In sickness and in health.

But after experiencing Walt’s version of wedded bliss, I say let’s forget about all that lovey-dovey crap and just take me straight to death do us part.

Good story

I really like this story and how the surprise arranged relationship between Walt and Elizabeth grew. Aubrey Vincent did a great job as Elizabeth and carrying this whole book since Walt’s POV was only the epilogue.

Really 4.5 Stars

I really, really wanted these two to talk to each other sooner, but it was really great watching them each grow.

Loved the narration

CUTE

This story was cute but it was slow and the young lady was making me tired by doing stupid stuff. I had to keep reminding myself that she was young. I almost stopped listening to it a couple of times but decided to finish it. the struggle was real. lol

Sweet and Simple

This was a sweet strangers-to-lovers romance. A slow burned but very little spice. It was a sweet story that had me “awww”-ing frequently and narrated very well!

Yes, Worth a credit

I really enjoyed this book….. but like others have stated, it would have been nice to have had some closure with her family. Still a very enjoyable listen.

Wonderful arranged marriage story

I really loved the humor in the story. The story made me laugh. I loved the woman voice performance better then the guy at the end. I definitely will listen to this audible again
