Reclaiming His Bride

A DiCarlo Brides Novel, Book 3, Volume 3

By: Heather Tullis

Narrated by: Valerie Gilbert

Secrets rule Lana’s life. Her father’s death brought some out into the open, but she has a few of her own: 1) she’s been married to Blake for nearly a year - and trying to get a divorce for most of that time. 2) A moment of emotional weakness and too much champagne ended with her in her husband’s arms - and now she’s pregnant.

Blake hasn’t thought of another woman since they first met, though she believes otherwise. When Lana’s hotel-magnate father offers him the job of regional manager - and an office in the hotel Lana would be managing, Blake jumps at it. Keeping her attention when it’s split between her sisters, the ins and outs of running a resort, and the ‘ghost’ who’s been haunting the building isn’t easy. Learning about the baby convinces him to redouble his efforts though - he isn’t going to give up without a fight, and when someone comes after Lana, the stakes are raised again.

Learn to trust despite you fears

Lana had found out that her father cheated on her mom. That moment had changed her. It was many years ago, but it still hunts her and prevents from trusting men.

Now she does not want to continue their relationship, filed for divorce, but Blake does everything in his power to change her mind.

The narration was good, easy to understand. Each character had its own personality and voice.

Lanas story

What did you love best about Reclaiming His Bride?

I enjoyed the possibility of paranormal experience is going on in the hotel

What does Valerie Gilbert bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narrator did an excellent job bringing the story to life I'm glad one narrator did the entire series for more seamless read

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I divided the book into two listening sessions, because of my frustration with the main character Lana.

Any additional comments?

the series does need to be read in order for better understanding. In this book we follow sister Lana on her journey of admitting her pregnancy to the family as well as her surprise marriage. Lana seem so strong in the other books, but in this one she turns out to be a major weak link. I hate when we find out a character has no backbone and fulfills the damsel in distress stereotype to the T. however I do enjoy this series and learning about each sister, I just wish they were all is consistently strong as they appeared in the first book. I listen to this book on audible the narrator did a great job pulling you into the story and keeping it moving along

Another great addition

Book three in the series and this book was just as entertaining as the previous two. It was well written and it kept me invested from the first to the last chapter.

I found the narrator Valerie Gilbert easy to listen to and appreciate the different voices she brings to the characters, which makes it easy to follow the story without getting confused.

This time it is Lana and Blake’s story and to say it’s a complicated one is an understatement.
From the first to the last chapter I was drawn in to the story and couldn’t wait to find out what happens.

Lana and Blake have a secret and it is one that may well tear her family apart should it come to light. However Blake is determined to fight for the woman he loves even though she is just as determined to ignore him and their marriage, until she can’t.

Who will win the battle of wills?

 

Reclaiming His Bride

The DiCarlo sisters are put together by their dying father. He seems to know a lot more about them then they know about themselves, but little by little they are learning everything there is to know about each other. -- Could not put this book/series down!
