My Darling Bride

My Darling Bride by Ilsa Madden-Mills is a fake dating romance and the story of Emmy and Graham.   Emmy cares for her siblings and works in a bookstore and as a bartender to make ends meet. She is a positive and kindhearted person who has experienced way too much. I absolutely loved her character and her behavior often created very unique and entertaining moments.   Graham is a football star and after experiencing a serious head injury, he is seeing life with different eyes and is looking more towards settling down. This also has another plus and he could inherit some money if he would marry and that would help out his brother. Graham is just amazing, and I adore how he goes above and beyond for the people he loves.   The meet cute of Emmy and Graham is just stunning, hilarious, and so memorable. I was rooting for them from the beginning and a fake dating and marriage of convenience rounded this story. The fake dating aspect is done phenomenally and these two are such a great pair and I loved reading this romance. I also liked the New York setting and especially the bookstore Emmy works at.   Overall, My Darling Bride is a marriage of convenience sports romance you don’t want to miss. 5 stars.   (ARC kindly provided in exchange for a review.)
