An excellent read. Loved getting to know new characters and reuniting with old ones. Can’t wait to read mote by this author
A sweet, Christian romance. Ava & Justin are thrown together when theiy are double booked into the same cottage. They begin a fake relationship to repair Justin’s public image and eventually fall in love. I really enjoyed this story. Lorana Hoopes does a fantastic job narrating and bringing the characters to life.
The Producer’s Unlikely Bride: A Clean Christian Opposites Attract Romance (Blushing Brides #6) was a great read by Lorana Hoopes. Justin produces a reality dating show and finds himself helping others find love. This makes him tired of love. Ava is a romance author who can’t seem to find a love of her own. They both decide to go on a small vacation separately but end up at the same cottage. This was another great read. I absolutely loved reading Justin and Ava’s story and can’t wait to read more by Lorana Hoopes.
The Producer’s Unlikely Bride: A Clean Christian Opposites Attract Romance (Blushing Brides #6), my eighteenth incredible read from wonderful Christian author Lorana Hoopes. This is another amazing Christian read & God’s hand is apparent throughout the book, if there’s a flaw in this book it’s that it’s too short, After having read The Cowboy’s Reality Bride (Blushing Brides #1) and The Reality Bride’s Baby (Blushing Brides #2) I wanted to read more Blushing Brides series. The depth of the story in this book is amazing, I don’t do spoilers though so you’ll have to read it and find out for yourself! I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing & since I own both the Kindle & Audible editions I was able to follow along while being read to. Lorana Hoopes’s talented self-narration & Texas accent/drawl adds to the well-written book’s enjoyment as no one knows her characters like the creator. I look forward to the next book in the series. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 – July 24, 2018).
A beach getaway and a forced vacation allowed our two main characters to happen to be stuck in the beach cottage together. Meet Margie. She is the matchmaker that says she listens to God to tell her who to overbook. This is a sweet story that started out as fake love. However, the pretend started to feel real. With a sudden health scare with her Dad, and Justin having to face his feelings of being at the hospital and remember the loss of his wife, who would show up at the hospital but Margie? Some sage advice that touched his heart and it changed his life for the better. Such a sweet fake to real relationship story, and one that showed the importance of God in a relationship for it to last. This is a great book to put on your to be read list.
I listened to the audio version of this book. This is a sweet, clean Christian romance that deals with a man’s loss of faith in love and God.
Justin’s job as a TV reality dating show is hanging in the balance because it has become known that he is super skeptical of love. Who better for him to spend time with than a Christian romance author? Just about anyone if you ask him. When his agent suggests a fake relationship with Ava, he reluctantly agrees to ask her.
Ava’s words just aren’t coming for her, but she finds inspiration in Justin. Will this fake relationship with a non-believer be good for her? It will certainly give her writing more exposure, but what about her heart?
Another great job on the story and narration by Lorana Hoopes!
I was given a complimentary copy of this audio book. All thoughts are my own.
The Producer’s Unlikely Bride: A Clean Christian Opposites Attract Romance
The Blushing Brides Series, Book 6
By: Lorana Hoopes
Narrated by: Lorana Hoopes
When total opposites attract, are there always sparks? Margie, the reservation taker always takes her cue from a higher authority, but in the case of Justin and Ava, she believes it to be true. When these two are double booked into a cabin, we get to see if she is right! Lorana Hoopes has a gift when she writes, creating warm, loving stories. I love Ava McDermott. She knows what she wants out of life and is open to love. Justin is a little jaded, but that makes the story that much more fun. With a strong faith based message, this book is heartwarming and full of love. It’s a journey of family, forgiveness, grief, and love and will leave you happy. Lorana Hoopes performs her story with her talents as a narrator. She brings it all to life, makes you feel the emotions and love. Another great listen!

Once again Lorana Hoopes puts together a fantastic story! She writes so effortlessly that it seems that you are watching a movie and you are the main character. It’s such a smooth flowing book that keeps you wanting to keep reading, saying…”Just one more chapter.” And before you know it, the book is over. I can’t wait to read more of her books.
A sweet, clean romance . I really enjoyed this book. I only will read sweet clean romances and this deliver perfectly. Ava and Justin are polar opposites but they came together through divine intervention. There are some roadblocks along the way that make you think they won’t reach their happily ever after, but again Margie appears.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Love this series, it has great characters and lovely storylines. Justin was not likeable in the previous books but I understand now why he was so annoying. Cannot wait to read more of this series. I was given a free ARC by the author. My review is freely and honestly given.
A definite 5 star! I was hooked from page one, and didn’t put it down until the last page. The characters were so well written, my feelings for them changed as they grew. From heartaches and lost love to just finding a love of a lifetime the characters learned life lessons that changed them. A beautiful story of forgiveness and how God is always there for us. Lorana Hoopes has definitely outdone her self with this captivating story!
Was given a complimentary copy. All opinions are my own.
Justin, a producer of a reality series doesn’t believe in love any more, what he now needs is some time to relax. His boss booked him a place at the beach. Ava, a romance writer needs some inspiration to finish her book and find herself at the same place as Justin. They need to stay together for three days and that isn’t easy when you have nothing in common. But then there comes a moment they have to work together. How can these two ever fall in love?
Really enjoyable Christian story.
Another great read by Lorana Hoopes. A sweet fun story of two people with creative “blocks” who come together to find faith, romance and their HEA.
An enjoyable clean fun romance story. This engaging storyline has a little drama about two opposites that were sent away because their careers were endanger when it so happens they end up being double booked for the same cabin. Deciding no choice but to make best of it, they embark in a fake relationship that has these two opposites overcoming many obstacles with lots of humor, romance, forgiveness, some sad moments and a relationship with God as these two end up with an unexpected HEA. A great sweet entertaining read with interesting, well developed characters. I voluntarily reviewed this ARC. This wonderful story that is so beautifully narrarated that when listening to the different voices that were portrayed I really felt the emotions and faith they had and gained. Excellently done.
What happens when a romance writer who is a Christian and a man who doesn’t believe in love or God end up renting the same cottage by the sea? Add a fake romance and we have the framework of Lorana Hoopes newest book, The Producer’s Unlikely Bride. I really enjoyed the book. The characters were such opposites that I wondered how they would pull off their fake romance. Especially with paparazzi following them everywhere. Ms. Hoopes did an excellent job with character development. I was surprised at the growth in Justin and Ava. God works some miracles and the story end with a HEA. Another excellent book by Ms. Hoopes.
Opposites attract in sweet romance with fake relationship
Justin and Ava meet in an unconventional way and separate goals unite them into a fake relationship (I love this trope) even though they are nothing alike. It is a sweet, clean, Christian romance where they aren’t afraid to flirt, well maybe a little afraid, but that’s part of the story ; ). I received a copy of this book and am giving my own opinion. [You should totally buy it!]
The Producer’s Unlikely Bride is a very enjoyable read. Justin and Ava agree to a fake relationship that is mutually beneficial. Both main characters are well developed and likable. I appreciated getting both points of view. I felt along with Justin and Ava and was happy to see Justin return to his faith and Ava stay solid in hers. There is a perfect HEA for this couple. I hope to read more of Lorana Hoopes’ books. I received an ARC. I chose to write a review and share my opinion of this sweet and clean romance.
Such a fun book! I really enjoyed the development of the characters and their sweet love story. Wonderful clean romance with a great happy ending! I recommend it!
I received a complimentary copy of the book. All opinions are my own and are expressed voluntarily.
What a fun, clean romance about a matchmaker being told from above to double book her cottage, A Slice of Tranquility so the two people staying their will fall in love by the beautiful ocean. I enjoyed the two main characters a lot. Ava is a romance author who is having trouble writing her next book so she decides to stay at the cottage to refresh her writing,
Justin is the host and producer of Who Wants to Marry a Cowboy reality show and he does not believe in love. He is such a skeptic since his first wife died that he now has been told he has to go remake his image while taking a vacation at the cottage. And that is where all of the fun in this story begins as these two decide a fake relationship between them would be beneficial for both of their careers. I received an advance copy of this book and I willingly chose to write an honest review.
After 10 years producing the TV Reality show “Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire”, Justin is more than burned out, he no longer believes in love. After telling the current cowboy that it doesn’t matter who he chooses, it won’t last anyway, he is forced by his co-producer and friend, Peter, to take a beach vacation. Peter books Justin a month at the cabin where he met his wife. Ava is a romance writer who believes in love, she just has hit a writer’s block of major proportion. Her editor and friend, Genevieve, is convinced the problem is Ava hasn’t experienced love even a second date, herself. Ginny persuades Ava to book a vacation at the beach. Peter and Ava find themselves double booked at the same cabin with a no refund until after 3 days clause. To say love at first glance would be a lie, it is a good thing that neither wants to forfeit their refund and they decide to share to cabin until the 3 days are past. This is a fun story to read and it was a good follow up to previous books.
