Publisher's summary

She needs a green card. He’s protecting his wounded heart.

A swoon-worthy, heart-warming, marriage-of-convenience romance from the best-selling author of the Make-Believe series.

When Australian chef, Eve Partridge, loses her visa, and with it the chance at the dream job she’s been working toward her whole career, she’s desperate to find a way to stay in the USA. Her only goal is to get a green card, so she can push her way back into the New York restaurant scene and finally get the chance to be head chef at one of the top restaurants in the city.

Billionaire entrepreneur, John Russo’s wounded heart has kept him isolated and alone for so many years he no longer remembers how it feels to connect with a woman, and that’s just fine by him. He has no intention of falling in love ever again. But the isolation is getting to him, and he longs for someone to share his life with.

An email-order bride arrangement seems like the perfect solution to both their problems.

The one thing they didn’t count on was falling in love.

When tragedy pulls them apart, they’ll have a decision to make: will they choose to give love a chance or will ambition rule their hearts?

A delightful romance about following your heart, discovering your best self, and choosing love. Perfect for fans of Inglath Cooper, Robyn Carr, and Debbie Macomber.

Maddening but great fun at the same time

So, I have to say that I found this to be a lot of fun but the romantic tension and lack of communication between this couple goes on and on.... to the point I wanted to shake them both. Under the contract that they entered in, I can understand how it happened but just be ready for a rollercoaster with this one. I found myself laughing, frustrated and, yes, I cried as well. The narrator did a great job with the characters, voices and even accents throughout the story, she just was a lot of fun to listen to. Overall, if you like clean romances then you will enjoy this one.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Sweet and Appealing

I love this update to the mail order brides of the old west. Today everything is digital so why wouldn't finding a bride be too? When John Russo needs a date for his reunion, he goes one step further and decides to find a bride. This way he will have a permanent date, no expectations and life will be easy. Eve Partridge wants to stay in the states and work as a chef, but finds herself close to deportation. Finding a husband is the solution to her problem. But when John and Eve meet, and get to know each other, this turns out to be much more than a business arrangement. I love Vivi Holt's style of writing. She makes her stories flow, gives me the escape I need and always has a great story. Eve and John come from different worlds. John is about big business, making real estate deals and not worrying about the little guy. Eve is the little guy. These two both clash and compliment each other. It's a fun listen, and we even get a little vacation to Australia!

Amanda Stribling does a wonderful job with her portrayal of this book. She has a large array of voices, and she uses them well with the many characters, especially in the restaurant! I love her Australian accents for Eve and her family. Stribling truly brings this story to life with her ability to draw your emotions out. You feel both sides of this relationship through her and can't decide who to like more! I love her narrations.

A Marriage of Convenience

Eve is an aspiring Chef from Australia, living in NYC and about to start a new job at an upscale restaurant. Unfortunately, something has gone wrong with her work Visa and she is at risk of losing everything.

Meanwhile, John is a successful CEO in Atlanta, much too busy to have time to date, much less have a true relationship. When he receives an invitation to his 10 year High School reunion, he decides to take the plunge and attend. Only one problem: who can he take to the reunion in order to show the girl who jilted him for his best friend that he has moved on?

When John's brother mentions a email-order bride service, he is skeptical. Eve happens to see an ad for the same service and the fates intervene to make sure that they get together.

If you enjoy reading clean romance, especially mail-order bride romance, you should give this book a chance. Reminiscent of the mail-order brides common during the Old West era, but with a modern twist.

Will these two people who just want companionship and convenience learn to love each other? Will their pasts allow them to trust in love again?

Ms. Holt does a great job in writing wonderful characters and engaging situations. Her books are always enjoyable and the reader can trust that there will be a HEA worthy of Hollywood. The narrator, Amanda Stribling, does a great job and her performance does a lot to add to the listener's enjoyment of the book.

I was given the opportunity to listen to the Audible version of this book by the author and chose to review it.

Decisions and Choices

Vivi Holt wrote another wonderful book in The Billionaire’s Email-Order Bride. I love how this book is both a standalone listen and part of a series. The storyline is clean, original and kept me engaged. The characters are flawed, yet endearing. The narration by Amanda Stribling is perfect. She brings them to life with her voice. I loved her accents in this book too! I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

Dreams and desperation

I really enjoyed this story. John is a successful developer but suffers from betrayal of his first love and best friend. Evie has her dream ripped out of her hands when her Visa is revoked. Both have selfish ulterior motives for their contract marriage. Watching them develop a friendship and a caring relationship makes this a great story. But our headscsometimes get in the way of our hearts and vice versa. Amanda did a great job with the narration. Evie is Australian, John is from New York but has lived in Atlanta for a few years and I think she did a great job with the various accents.

Really Liked This One!

John Russo is a lonely man and would like nothing more than to come home to someone after a long day at work, however his heart has been broken once so he is not looking for love. What he wants is a marriage of convenience. Eve Partridge is in a bind. She has lost her work visa and needs to find a way to fulfill her dream of staying in America to run her own restaurant as head chef. The Email Order Bride Agency seems to be the solution to them both so they sign a contract to be husband and wife for a year. Things become complicated when they start to fall in love with each other but don’t admit it to the other. There are some ups and downs and twists that make the story interesting. I really enjoyed this one and found it difficult to put down until the end. Amanda Stribling did a wonderful job with all the voices and accents and brought the story to life and made it quite enjoyable.

Not what I expected.

This book is not what I expected. The POV is from both the main characters which I liked, this give me an insight in what they are thinking.
I thought that John (the main male character) would be the one who would have cold feet but the author surprised me in this case. However, I felt he kept to his character so I should not have been surprised. What really raised my eyebrow was Eva (the love interest). I loved her to begin with but as the story progressed I found she thought more of herself. I kept on reading to see how the author was going to solve the problem of her career and her feeling for John.
This is a clean read so it is suitable for all.
