About this listen

Having been kidnapped by his mother at age ten and left to die in a fire, billionaire lawyer Ares Huxley trusts no one. But he needs a wife to get a critical promotion at his law firm, and wakes up the morning after a friend’s bachelor party to find that he’s somehow married to an eccentric blonde he doesn’t even remember meeting!

He immediately plans to annul, but it turns out she needs a husband to receive her inheritance. They have nothing in common, but if he plays along, she promises to be his dream wife.

The rules are simple: Share the marital bed every night, no real feelings, and the marriage ends in six months when they both have what they want.

But living with this accidental wife doesn’t produce the respectfully indifferent marriage he envisioned. Despite her innocence, she’s feisty both in and out of bed. His family adores her, and when he learns that her family treats her badly, he finds himself wanting to protect her. And maybe more.

Ares can’t stop thinking about his unexpectedly adorable, irresistible, and wonderful fake wife. But despite his evolving intentions—and emotions—she abides by their fake marriage rules a little too well.

Ares realizes the one thing his wife wants from him is the one thing he can no longer do: Let her go.

Phenomenal!!

Beautiful. Broken. Believable. This story is inspiring. While it's harrowing in parts, it conveys such an important message, that healing IS possible. It is not sugary sweet, it does not hide the dark shadows, and it isn't going to pretend that everything is magically fixed. You will truly fall in love with these wonderful characters and definitely enjoy their story. Lareina & Ares are genuine and their emotions are real, absolutely loved their connection. You will experience a rollercoaster of emotions while reading this book. I absolutely loved this fake marriage, billionaire romance. This is a MUST READ...don’t hesitate, just head on over and one-click this book now!!

Emma Wilder & Ryan West are remarkable bringing the characters to life. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles giving us all of the emotions with the perfect inflections.

Great read

Nadia Lee gives another great book. I love following characters we met in the Lasker brother's series. Great plot twists. The narrators did a fabulous job bringing the characters to life.

Ares Huxley and Lareina Hayworth

*****SPOILER ALERT*****

The Accidental Marriage by Nadia Lee. The Huxleys series, book one. eARC and audiobook review. Dual POV. Duet narration. Contemporary billionaire romance, damsel and hero in distress. The audiobook is listed as 12 hours 24 minutes; I listened at speed 2.50 for 4 hours 58 minutes. Narrators Ryan West and Emma Wilder both read well, but Emma's pace seemed a bit faster than Ryan's, which made listening at any speed a bit off-putting. I prefer dual narration in part because it seems like it's difficult/impossible to match up the reading pace of narrators who don't record together. It did not sound like they did to me. My apologies if they did. Content warnings: abductions; child and adult abuse/neglect; two fires; both MCs are drugged multiple times; FMC's parents and grandfather died under seemingly suspicious circumstances; both MC's families are manipulating them for different reasons; and both MCs suffer amnesia.

Ares Huxley (32; lawyer) and Lareina Hayworth (29; heiress/artist) both have tragic backgrounds but find their way back to each other under unique and extraordinarily stressful circumstances. Their HEA is hard-fought and well-deserved. I look forward to Bryce's story next.

I very much enjoyed the story. For some reason, I was expecting it to be much darker. I still have quite a few unanswered questions about multiple storylines, and I look forward to discussing it openly once more people have finished reading it. JP

2 out of 5 on my spice scale.
