Thank goodness I was smart and read this book first. Yes it is a series and this book does end in a cliffhanger so to speak but it’s an awesome read and I can’t wait to read the next book. Jenna and Chloe have been excepted into the FBI academy, their life long dream realize. What they didn’t expect is for Chloe to meet Liam and the fireworks that came with him. I love this intro of Chloe and Liam and all that goes with it. It’s a sweet romance with just some kissing but there’s danger and action as well. The author does a great job keeping the action flowing and adding some tragedy too. As their lives are turned upside down by the events, there may be some soul searching and re-evaluating life and goals. The heart wants what the heart wants, but after everything that happened can a heart that feels betrayed learn to beat the rhythm of love again.
A story of childhood friends, Chloe and Jenna and their trek together thru the FBI academy. Lots of friendship, family, love, hard work, mystery and heartache. Love the characters. This is my first time reading this great author, Kimberly Montpetit, and she leaves me begging for more in the next book.
** spoiler alert ** I read the next book in the series before this one so I knew how this one would end. On the one hand I wish I hadn’t known but on the other I’m glad I did or it would have been a very shocking ending. Not exactly your HEA ending… If you read this one, plan on reading the next because you need the whole story to get that HEA. I would kinda prefer it to be all one book but I’m not sure that the prequel was intended from the start. I think that was readers demand to know what had happened. I could be wrong. And I think the title of this book is a little deceptive.
I loved the way Liam responded as a trainer in a supportive manner. And the banter between Liam and Chloe was pretty fun. Maybe because we don’t know much about his interactions with other NATS but I thought that it would be pretty obvious to anyone who paid any attention that there was some energy between the two of them.
I liked this book but I did wonder at the two main characters risking their goals/jobs in order to spend time together. Their relationship was pretty much insta-love or at least insta-attraction with love following quickly behind. I personally had a hard time relating to Chloe simply because I have no love of guns and would have absolutely no desire to be an FBI agent. I can appreciate the work the FBI does but I think I only think of them in place in their jobs and don’t think about what they thought or felt before they got to that point. Or that they thought guns were such great things. But I’m not a gun lover at all. Still I could appreciate the story.
No sex or language
Violence: yes
I enjoyed the story with Chloe and Jenna achieving their dream of being selected to train as FBI agents. A rigorous program of training, leaving little time for the forbidden romance springing up between Chloe and Liam, her supervisor. It is well written and the story flows well.
** Audiobook Review **. I was given a copy of this audio book for an honest review. This story is well written by Kimberley Montpetit & narrated beautifully by Jennifer Jill Araya. Captivating from the first page. I loved the characters, the excitement, just everything about this book!! The scenes are full of abundant details so lively that they blend and flow smoothly. Wow…just wow. I love this story, I can’t wait to read the next installment.
An amazing well written quick intense read. This is a prequel that was written after book 2 Undercover bridesmaid so ends on a cliffhanger but soo very glad to have listened and been given this incredible story . I loved it. It’s a story thats engaging, faced paced, exciting, full of action, twists and turns, flirty fun banter, soo many emotions, forbidden restrained desired romance, with loveable fun well developed characters. It is beautifully narrated really bringing me into the story and feel all the joys, love happiness, and sorrow. An incredible must experience romance.
I really like the storyline and the characters seemed well developed and engaging. I liked the flirting and budding, though hidden, romance of Chloe and Liam. There was action and suspense as well. I wish I had listened/read this book before The Undercover Bridesmaid as I knew how it was going to end. Narrator did great job also.
I had a free copy of this book, but this is my voluntary and honest opinion. I enjoyed reading this book. Kimberley did a great job with the characters and plot development. I found the information on FBI training to be interesting. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
This is a really great story but is a little sad too. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Be warned, it is a cliffhanger and you have to read the second one to get the ending. I can’t wait to get/read number two. I’m very impressed with the author.
I fell in love with Chloe and Liam when I read the Undercover Bridesmaid, and when I finished it, I really wanted more information about their backstory. Ta da! Here you go! The FBI Bride shares a great deal of information about how Chloe and Liam met, the trials and tribulations that made their relationship so contentious. As soon as I was done reading it, I had to go back and re-read the Undercover Bridesmaid to capture the complete picture of their relationship. I always enjoy Kimberley Montpetit’s writing, and her ability to create characters you become invested in is fabulous. While I was provided a preview copy of this book, the opinions expressed are completely my own.
Chloe and Liam meet at the airport and it is pretty funny – sparks fly!! She is on her way to Quantico to start her training and who does she see? Yep. Sparks are still flying but there is fraternizing between trainer and trainee. Their banter was so funny. This one does end on a cliffhanger but the sequel is so good (I liked it even better). I had read the sequel first and loved that the author wrote a book about how they met.
Chloe and Jenna are heading to Quantico to fulfil their childhood’s dream: to become an FBI agent. In the airport, Chloe meets a handsome stranger over the wrong luggage and they fees an instant attraction. The stranger turns to be Special Agent Esposito, one of their trainers is Quantico. And even as the attraction is growing it’s against the rules to have a relationship with a superior. Something terrible will happen that will tear them apart. Can they have future together?
I’ll admit I wasn’t really excited about reading this book, feeling like I already knew Liam and Chloe’s story from the Undercover Bridesmaid, but boy was I wrong. I loved reading about their first meeting and how their relationship grew. It was fascinating learning about the FBI training program. This book pulled me in from the beginning. Even though I read the Undercover Bridesmaid last year, now I need to read it again.
Amazing, incredible book!
I was drawn into the story as soon as I started reading. You can tell that the author researched the training program for the New Agent Trainees at Quantico, the FBI training school. I found it fascinating to learn about the program and follow Chloe and Jenna as they completed their training. It was hard to put the book down and I finished it in two days. I was surprised by a lot of the events that happened and blown away by the raw emotions of the characters. It was so real, like I was there with them. I can’t wait to read The Undercover Bridesmaid, which is the next book in this series.
This is a page turner! From their first meeting, Chloe and Liam have a complex relationship. With her best friend, Jenna, Chloe reports to Quantico for FBI training. I love strong, well-developed characters and you will find them in this book. I look forward to reading the next one
Even though I don’t usually read cliffhangers this one is worth reading. I recommend it and its follow-up, The Undercover Bridesmaid (An Undercover Bridesmaid Romance Book 2).
The FBI Bride is the prequel to last year’s The Undercover Bridesmaid. Kimberley Montpetit was kind enough to write this book when readers wanted Chloe’s back story. As always, Ms. Montpetit has delivered a clean, sweet romance with wonderful characters. This book has action, drama, tragedy, humor and romance. This is a very satisfying backstory for Chloe. You will want to read both books.
I truly enjoyed reading this book!
The FBI Bride is a engaging,
exciting & moving story.
Chloe, & her best friend Jenna,
dreamed of being an FBI Agent.
They trained & studied hard to be accepted. Then their dream came true.
I really liked reading the details
described, about what the NAT’s go
through at Quantico, to become an agent.
Chloe & Liam, steal your heart
from the very first pages to the last.
I loved everything about this Must
Read Story!!

The FBI Bride
An Undercover Bridesmaid Romance, Book 1
By: Kimberley Montpetit
Narrated by: Jennifer Jill Araya
A chance meeting at the airport, Chloe fights over baggage with Liam only to learn later that he is one of her superior officers at the Quantico Training Academy. This does not stop the sparks from flying though. There is a no fraternization policy, so the two cannot be together, but the stolen moments are worth the chance of getting caught. Now with a mission gone wrong, Chloe’s life is forever changed. Her best friend gone, and the blame is shifting to one person. Will Liam and Chloe find their change to be together or will this be the end? I was taken in by this book, and quickly fell in love with Chloe and Liam. They have a fun, flirty relationship and from scene to scene left me wanting more. Kimberly Montepetit masterfully weaves a suspenseful story into this budding relationship leaving me on the edge of my seat. I felt every emotion from the happiness of entering the academy to the grief at the end and quickly queued up book 2! It does leave you on a slight cliffhanger, so make sure you are ready!
Narrated by Jennifer Jill Araya, she brings out all the nuances in this book. I love her voices, each one fitting the personalities of the characters. She gives an amazing performance and can’t wait for the next in the series.
