When her best friend stages a love-life intervention with a psychic at a Chinese restaurant, Lilly Jones suddenly finds herself flying to Rome in search of her future husband. The only thing separating Lilly from true love is the fear of flying, lactose intolerance, a scandal with the Pope, and the sexy Italian she meets on the plane.

The setting takes place in San Francisco and Italy.

Lilliana, the female lead, is told by a psychic that her future husband is in Rome.

The story line takes off with the flight to Italy where she meets Marco, the male lead, on the plane.

I liked Lilly and understood her fear of spontaneity and thought that Marco was perfect for her.

The story moved along at a quirky and quick pace which ended up being a sweet and funny read.


Michael Ferraiuolo did well with the narration..

I listened to my first Rich Amooi audiobook last year and enjoyed it, so when the chance came to get a review copy of another one of his stories, I jumped at it.

The pun-tastically named Lilliana Jones and the Temple of Groom brings back what I like from Amooi’s writing. It has good plotting and didn’t lag anywhere. Some of the parts of the story are laugh out loud funny to me. (The psychic character of Madam Love is a hoot!) This would fit the bill for those wanting a “clean” romance because there are no on page sex scenes, just a few kisses that aren’t overly described.

The plot concerns the very contained Lilli takes an opportunity to go to Italy to seek out the savior of her company and hopefully find love along the way—that is, if she takes Madam Love’s advice to heart. While en route, she meets Marco, who is going there for his job. They hit it off and have some great adventures—some of them hilarious, some hilariously bad, all of them memorable.

Lilli is the better written character because she feels more real with flaws. Marco, on the other hand, sometimes feels too good to be true and without flaws. I was starting to feel skeptical as I do with much of modern romance, but the story moved along so I didn’t have time to dwell on it.

Since I listened to an audiobook, I must mention the narrator Michael Ferraiuolo’s performance. Simply put, I was very impressed. All his characters sounded different no matter who they are or what gender they were. He handed the Italian accent and few bits of Italian language with aplomb. I’ve listened to another performance of his and enjoyed it, but now I’ve started recognizing his name with other audiobooks I want to try. I doubt this will be the last time I listen to a Michael Ferraiuolo performance or read a Rich Amooi title!

If you want a sweet, funny, romantic adventure, this is the book you want.

Romantic adventure in Italy

Lilliana Jones and the Temple of Groom was a laugh out loud clean romantic comedy, that was both fun and entertaining to listen too.

Poor Lilliana, if it could go wrong, it went wrong! She is a cautions person who likes to plan, and stick to routines as they are safe. After she receives Madam Love's questionable predictions, she must face her fear of flying, and travel to Italy to search for her future husband or live out the rest of her days lonely. During the flight she meets the handsome Marco who helps her with her fear, and offers to show her around Italy, and she agrees.

Marco wants Lillian to enjoy Italy, so they a few spontaneous adventures, that do not fair so well for Lillian. However, each one of her mishaps, will have you smiling and laughing with her.

The narration was great, and I thought Michael Ferraiuolo did a great job on the voices and emotions.

I received this audio book in exchange for an honest review, and enjoyed the story. It was clean romantic adventure that had me laughing.

I found this book sweet. I enjoyed hearing about places I had recently been and the silly misadventures of this romance. It was not very long but it packed in all the things that made it work. Not filled with steamy sex or dropping f bomb every other word made its perfect little summer read. The characters are well developed for such a short read and I really feel in love with their charm. I received this book for free in order to get an honest review.

Lily is annoying—blame blame blame! Got to be almost enough to give up, but moments of self insight were just enough to keep me listening.

Cute but...

Lillyanna Jones cringes at the word spontaneous, Marco a man she meets on her first flight is her polar opposite. They seem to grow on each other as he offers to be her tour guide. I loved the adventure, romance and a glimpse of Italy! I found myself laughing as I listened. I will definitely look for more from this author.




The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed.
