Publisher's summary

Logan Ward doesn't want any more women in his life.

Being a football player and legal guardian to his four younger sisters means his playbook is full. However, one of them just landed in the hospital, which gives his brother the shot he needs to challenge Logan for custody. Legal counsel says there's only one thing Logan can do - find himself a wife.

Paige McKinney doesn't always think things through.

Like walking away from her modeling career without a thought of what might come next. She really doesn't think it through when she proclaims herself Logan's fiance at the hospital, simply because the sexy - albeit grumpy - football player forgot his cell phone at a party and security won't let her pass. It's not her fault it was overheard by the worst possible person.

A bargain is struck, and a fake marriage is the perfect solution. But the simple solution creates a whole new problem: They're not as different as they seem. The reluctant groom has fire inside him, and his impetuous bride is about to light the match.

Contains mature themes.

The Marriage Effect

Karla Sorensen has written another fabulous book/audiobook in The Marriage Effect. There are characters written in a previous book in the current one that make this book fuller. I enjoyed it so much and look forward to more of her novels.

The plot

I liked really everything about this book. Granted, I am a huge pro football fan. But it wasn’t just like a regular romcom. The addition of the children who were narrated perfectly made it so special. I never got bored and I couldn’t put it down.

I loved this book!

I really loved the narration. Both narrators did a great job in their portrayal of the characters and made it abgreat time.

I loved the story, it’s a marriage of convenience with so much chemistry and sexual tension between the characters, so what’s not to like. It’s really well written, sexy and funny. I loved everything about this one.

An easy listen

This was an enjoyable story and a really easy listen. Low angst, likable main characters, no overly complicated plot, and good narration. It was a perfect choice for me to listen to over the weekend while running errands and doing chores around the house.

Narrators were wonderful!

I loved this entire series. This book has more frame because of 4 little girls and a mean brother… but it all came together nicely.

Good story, light on the angst

These two narrators were just perfect for this story. I seem to forget about Stephen Dexter but, I'm going to find more books read by him.
Overall, 4 1/2 stars.
