About this audiobook
Debbie Macomber’s irresistible novel puts a modern spin on an old-fashioned way of finding “the one.”
After Caroline Myers gets her heart broken, her beloved great-aunts send her on a spur-of-the-moment northern adventure, equipped with little more than a batch of their special spiked tea. But soon after hopping a plane to Gold River, Alaska, a still loopy Caroline takes part in an odd ceremony that ends with a kiss from her personal tour guide. The next thing she knows, she wakes up with a ring on her finger.
Paul Trevor has always wanted a family, but his long work hours and remote location make dating impossible, so he takes an unconventional first step: sending away for a wife. He falls hard for Caroline’s photograph and letter, but after the wedding, it’s clear they’ve both been duped by his new bride’s well-meaning aunts. Caroline’s afraid this trip has been a mistake. Now Paul just needs to convince her it’s the best mistake she’ll ever make.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Heroines in romance can be annoying, but this one takes the cake!
1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Cute wholesome story of love and patience. Overall good quick read.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I had to listen to this entire book in the hopes that it would redeem itself however it’s absolute garbage. Both paul and Caroline are the absolute worst there’s no real relationship other than a physical one I can’t believe I spent four hours listening to this
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The lead character was soooooo whiny. Otherwise, it's a good book.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The story was nice, I loved the Aunts. I didn’t give it 5 stars because I found Caroline’s “yes master” mantra obnoxious. Paul has a lot more patience than I would have had. That is my only complaint. The rest was excellent.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The storyline appealed to me. I love Debbie Macomber’s writing. It always does the heart good.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The premise of this book was absolutely ridiculous and annoying! Couldn’t finish it!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Caroline was ridiculous as the female lead. The narrator didn't do her any favors by the way she inflected her voice either. She came across as haughty and immature. Thankfully, the book isn't very long, and the male lead redeemed the story. Maybe there wasn't enough background information given or character development, but even if there were, I'm not sure the mistakes are redeemable.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Mail-Order Bride is a re-release of a Debbie Macomber book now on e-book, and I am pleased that Random House LLC republished it again, so I had the chance to read it. A cute love story of two people falling in love with the help of Caroline's great aunts set in Alaska. I love all of Debbie Macomber books, and this one would make a great Hallmark movie.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In Macomber’s romance novel, Caroline Myers has been dumped by her fiancé. Her well-meaning aunts plan a trip to the Alaskan wilderness supposedly to help Caroline cheer up and move on. But to Caroline’s surprise, her family targeted Alaska after reading an article stating that Paul Trevor, of Alaska, was looking for a bride. Caroline might have been upset over the scheme, but when she looks Paul in the eyes the surrounding snow melted.With the stunning background of Alaska, Macomber has once again painted a winning tale.
