Substitute Bride

Beaufort Brides

By: Noelle Adams

Narrated by: Angela Dawe

For more than two years, Rose has been the nanny for James Harwood's daughters. She adores the girls, but she tries to maintain a professional distance with James—no matter how attractive she finds him. However, when his engagement falls apart and he starts to look at her differently, Rose no longer sees him only as her boss.

James isn't the kind of man to fall for his nanny, so he doesn't know why he can't stop thinking about her in very wrong ways. He's determined to resist, to keep his life simple and to find an appropriate substitute for his wife who died.

But with a manipulative ex-fiancée, two precocious daughters, Rose's interfering Southern grandmother, a short-lived fake engagement, and feelings that won't be denied, nothing remains simple for long.

Perfection

Audiobook: Narrator - Jane Cramer

I’m a huge fan of this author but this was the first audiobook I’ve ever listened to by her and I can’t express what a perfect narrator she choose. Ms. Cramer’s performance is exactly how I have often thought Ms. Adam’s heroines to sound and act. She truly brought this story to life in a believable style that I enjoyed listening to.


I’m a huge fan of marriage of convenience romances and this one was filled with all things I enjoy. I loved that the decision to marry was a mutual decision that both characters made at the same time. It was the obvious thing to do. Everything that follows was relatable and never felt contrived. These characters are real and the emotions Lydia deals with are exactly what one would expect to find in her same situation. There is nothing over the top, no insta anything, but a lot of good old fashioned falling in love while learning more about the person you’re married to.
