About this listen

Growing up on the tropical paradise of St. John, Ellie Green had three goals: study ecology, save the planet, and marry Ryan Andersen, the dreamy older boy who hung out at the Paradise Resort next door. Ten years later, Ellie's college plans are in ruins and the planet isn't saved, but she still has a chance to marry Ryan. All she has to do is help him bulldoze her childhood home and build an island-destroying casino.

Billionaire Ryan Andersen has it all: charisma, women, and a talent for starting new businesses. But Ryan's never managed to stick with any business - or woman - for long. When Ryan gambles his fortune on developing a world-class casino, he finds himself accidentally engaged to environmentalist Ellie Green. But convincing Ellie to go along with the project won't be a problem. As long as he doesn't lose his head and fall in love....

Any additional comments?

This was about getting past your fear and trusting someone else with your feelings and heart. This is a heart warming tale and my favorite character has to be Ryan. He is not what you expect him to be and his past ruled how he behaved. But as he got to know Ellie he changed. It is also about family which I loved and you get a bit of a surprise which I did not see coming and neither did the characters. There is a reason why they behaved the way they did.
You think you know where the book is heading and then the author surprises you. I didn't find it as funny as I thought it would be, but there were moments that made me smile. I would still recommend this book to those who love romance.

Keeping in mind that this is not a very long book, it has a little bit of everything you might expect in a billionaire romance plus a little extra. You have the billionaire (of course), except that Ryan is a little more vulnerable and human that the usual billionaire protagonist. You have Ellie who is a delightfully quirky, unsophisticated and trusting woman with environmental tendancies and a massive heart. Then you have the beautiful island setting which isn't the stage for a seduction, as you might think. In fact it has the potential to be the lynchpin in this accidental romance. Throw in your typical rich wannabe girlfriend, complicated relatives, a pair of sturdy handcuffs (not of the sexy variety), a little globe trotting, a bit of humour and you have a neatly packaged story. Overall it is easy to listen to and sweet.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Easy to listen to and very sweet.
