About this listen
Growing up on the tropical paradise of St. John, Ellie Green had three goals: study ecology, save the planet, and marry Ryan Andersen, the dreamy older boy who hung out at the Paradise Resort next door. Ten years later, Ellie's college plans are in ruins and the planet isn't saved, but she still has a chance to marry Ryan. All she has to do is help him bulldoze her childhood home and build an island-destroying casino.
Billionaire Ryan Andersen has it all: charisma, women, and a talent for starting new businesses. But Ryan's never managed to stick with any business - or woman - for long. When Ryan gambles his fortune on developing a world-class casino, he finds himself accidentally engaged to environmentalist Ellie Green. But convincing Ellie to go along with the project won't be a problem. As long as he doesn't lose his head and fall in love....

An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. I had a plan. Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right? Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn't exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. That's when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn't a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset.

The only thing I need is him. It was the night before my wedding. Maybe I cursed it by visiting my fiancé. I didn't expect him to cheat on me with my best friend. That night I ended up going to the strip club. The same one I went for my bachelorette party. That guy told me to come back if it didn't work out. I laughed at the thought. Well, it came true, because it didn't. What was I to do next?

Super fun listen-definitely recommended!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would definitely recommend this audiobook to a friend. It was a fun listen and Ms. Loebel did a great job with one. It was well written, well narrated and just a fun, quicker listen (just under 5 hours). The characters and storyline were fully realized. I wish that the book was longer because I didn't want it to end!
What other book might you compare Sweetheart Bride to and why?
I'm not sure what other book I would compare to Sweetheart Bride, but as I mention below, I could totally see this as a Lifetime movie. So if you like those, then you will definitely enjoy this audiobook.
What does Emily Beresford bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Ms. Beresford did a really good job narrating this book. She did a great job handling all of the various characters, both male and female and because of this, I feel that she brought more than a lesser narrator would have to the listening experience.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I have no idea what the tag line would be (I hate this question), but I can definitely say that I could see this book becoming a television movie. On Lifetime. It totally fits their made for TV movie mold. So if you like Lifetime romance movies, then you'll definitely enjoy this audiobook.

you must buy this book
Vicky Loebel did an outstanding job of writing this great book. She developed the characters with her own charmed way of writing. After listening to this book I purchased the first.
Emily BERESFORD did a extremely likable job of narrating. Her different voices were perfect and I easily was able to know which character was which.
Great book worth the credit.

Grandma Stole The Show
I got this book via audiobook boom.Although the grandma was a minor character she stole the show for me. I loved her spunk and how she enjoyed life no matter what hand she was dealt. Ellie and Ryan though fought each other but Ryan would not take no for an answer and they finally got their HEA.Ryan's Dad was a prick and that female partner made me laugh when she had them handcuff themselves to the chair. Then take pictures of the ring and all the other stuff she did to make everyone believe that they were getting married. The narrator made the story fun. There were several twists that I did not see coming but the story was developed well.

Short, sweet romp through an island paradise
What did you love best about Sweetheart Bride?
I received a copy of this audiobook from the author in exchange for an honest review. That sentence means I voluntarily agreed to and sought out the chance to listen to this book. Once I started though, I thought to myself, "what in the world was I thinking?!" This is a "marry a millionaire" romance, and they are not usually know for their depth or finesse. That said, the audio production was done quite well. Story wise, Ellie and Ryan are both sympathetic characters, although some details of Ellie's backstory left me with a "come on, really?" sense. In particular, the past actions of one of the villains, a supervisor at a work/study program where Ellie lived just before the book started, and then his apparent rehabilitation later in the novel, just didn't jive, and neither did Ellie's apparent gullibility during that earlier time juxtaposed to her complete "I am in charge of my own life" bravado just a few days later. The novel's setting, however, was divinely described, making me wish I could hop on one of those (also exquisitely described) private jets and see it all for myself. Ellie (from the get-go) and Ryan (eventually) are both fierce champions of environmentalism, so the reader can forgive herself for engaging in daydreams of endless money, knowing that some of it will be put to a good cause. The love story itself is sweet, and there are no graphic sex scenes.

Short and sweet
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes - a quick "read", light hearted with a bit of a twist.
What did you like best about this story?
It was a nice, clean romance.
Any additional comments?
I received a free copy of this book and provided a voluntary review. While I may not have used a credit for this book, it would definitely worth a "bargain bin". If it were a longer book, it would have been worth a full credit!

A Perfect Getaway
Where does Sweetheart Bride rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The characters and story are excellent, but the narrator seems almost tired at points which can impact the momentum of the narrative.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Ellie is a plucky delight! She has so much spirit, she makes a great lead.
Have you listened to any of Emily Beresford’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
The narrator lacks enthusiasm at times, but her voices for each character are perfection.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Ellie and Ryan have great chemistry, and pull a lot of giggles from their interactions. Ellie's grandmother is a hoot too. This sweet romance feels light, fun , and thoroughly enjoyable.
Any additional comments?
Vicky Loebel has a deft touch, and I look forward to her next work!

Great Addition to the Brides of Paradise Series
This is a great book! It was interesting and kept me hooked all the way to the conclusion. The characters are well developed and very likable. I love romantic comedies and this one was great!
The narrator did an outstanding job bringing the story to life. Her voices were perfect and easy to tell who was talking. Great intonation.
There are no cliffhangers and it does conclude with a HEA. It is part of a series but you could read as a stand alone. I loved her first book and this one is just as good.
This is a very talented author and I'm looking forward to her next book.

Lovely Story
Vicky Loebel is a new author to me and very talented. Emily Beresford did a fantastic performance with the various characters. I loved how original and fun this book was. There were some unexpected twists in the story, which made it so much more delightful. The author did a good job with some of the imagery in the book and the narrator added a lot of emotion one would not get just reading it. I was voluntarily provided with this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, narrator, and or publisher. I enjoyed this book so much, that I purchased the first book in the series. This story is part of a series, yet a standalone listen.

Marriage of Convenience
Four years ago, Ellie Green left her home on the island of St. John to pursue an ecology degree at the University of Costa Rica. Spending those four years teaching tourists the joys of protecting the rain forest and reduce reuse recycling left her fulfilled, but after a dishonest professor stole her funds she's left without a degree or tuition. Ellie returns home to St. John only to find her childhood home near ruin and her childhood crush Ryan Andersen ready to bulldoze the property to build a massive casino.
The casino project is Ryan's last effort to regain control of his finances and more importantly, earn his father and uncle's respect. He's determined to do just about anything to accomplish both dreams. Ryan hasn't seen Ellie since she was a spunky little girl, and he's surprised to see she's grown up to be gorgeous and sweet. When they're forced to pretend to be engaged, neither seems to mind.
I really enjoyed this sweet romance, it was a nice tropical escape. The characters are fleshed out well, Ryan is vulnerable and charming, while Ellie is fun and endearing. Ellie's Gran is a crackup and I can just picture her striking a disco pose! I loved the ploy the author used to keep Ryan and Ellie close by each other in the beginning. I did wonder why a security conscious family like the Andersens with so many bodyguards would invite a known kidnapper to all the family events, but it didn't detract from the story.
The narrator was great, her pace, tone, and pitch were perfect. She gave each character a distinct speaking voice. I was provided a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. I'll be keeping an eye out for more by this author and narrator!
