Suitable for marriage, but what about love?

Enrico DiRinaldi wants a wife and children, even though an accident has left him unable to walk. So he proposes a marriage of convenience to Gianna Lakewood. Having secretly always loved Rico, Gianna can't say no.

The passion Rico ignites in his innocent bride is explosive! But when she realizes that Rico's full recovery from his injuries is imminent, and his beautiful ex-fiancee is waiting in the wings, Gianna is sure he won't want her any more. However, Rico is still intent on keeping his convenient wife by his side...

The female was wimpy the male clueless for someone who was suppose to be a women killer. Did not care fore the narration the Italian accent just made the character sound stupid and I really did not like the way the characters were articulated . Kept hoping the book would get better but finally gave up did not read the full book

Awful!!!!

This is a good read when you want to escape and just listen and enjoy. This novel was well written, although the Italian accents weren't the best by the narrator.

What did you like best about The Italian's Suitable Wife? What did you like least?

The storyline should have made for a great read but the female character was spineless and the male character insecure.....all made worse by the terrible narration. I have never disliked a narrator before but she was so wrong for this book it just ruined it.

Weak male and female, poor narration.

Oh, how I loved this book. It was one of the sweetest things I've read in a really long time. The love shown in this book was so tender and overwhelming that I found myself crying as if I were the main character. Thanks for such a great story and a wonderful emotional adventure!

So sweet and sensual!

One of her earlier works, this follows the prescribed formula for a HP books. It’s a sweet, sincere, heartfelt, feel good listen. This is the best narrator for an HP romance I’ve ever listened to. Good job!

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Not particularly, but I was also doing my housework at the time so that isn't totally true.

Did The Italian's Suitable Wife inspire you to do anything?

I kept on waiting for the female lead to grow a back bone. It didn't happen.

not bad for a bodice ripper

When Gianna was told of Rico's accident she drove to him immediately. Only to find him in a comma and his fiancee now where to be seen. She has loved him for so long that she would do anything for him. Even marriage. His accident left him paralyzed, for now. And she would do anything even have his child. But what about his now ex fiancee? Will she just stand by? I have read this book several times. And to listen to the narration of it was a treat.
