The Airman's E-Mail Order Bride

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I loved this story! It is so well written and the idea of an email order bride puts a new spin on the mail order brides of the old west. This is such a great concept.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Colt definitely! My heart hurt for all his pain and the guilt he carried. It is such a life lesson. We hold onto guilt and can only see the situation from our POV. When Colt's family showed him how much they loved him and didn't blame him for his dad's death it was such a help in his healing.

Have you listened to any of Anika Solveig’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I didn't like this narrator nearly as much as the one in the first book of this series. When listening to the second book after immediately hearing the first one I almost didn't get through it.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Colt told the family about everything he felt such guilt over and their love and concern helped his healing. He had been in such pain for so long. When he went to visit the parents of his friend he couldn't save and the conversation they had with him had me in tears.

Any additional comments?

I love this series. It will be one I listen to again.

Where does The Airman's E-Mail-Order Bride rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

catchy, will stick with me, nice voice to listen to. (had some loud places, but not sure if that was my media or the audios, not sure where to even report that, just an FYI)

Who was your favorite character and why?

Heather! Strong yet vulnerable, great mother, great woman, struggles but tries and tries to do what's right and is just real!

Which character – as performed by Anika Solveig – was your favorite?

Colt- she captured his personality, how he feels, how he expresses himself.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES! it was exciting! even after reading it and then listening to it, I wanted it all at once! ached through it, cried, laughed, and just kept going!

Any additional comments?

still wanted to smack Colt, even more so "hearing" how...flustered? he got with the situation...but loved it still! great ending! and I enjoyed listening to the words!

Swoon worthy!

Cora Seton does it again with The Airman's E-Mail Order Bride. I am absolutely in love with this entire series. If you haven't had the chance, I highly recommend you pick up the entire Chance Creek series.

Heartbreak and sweet romance

This last book of the series starts very funny and improbable but, you get attached to the characters and their banter.
It is sad to see the guilt Colt carries over the death of his father but as things evolve and he meets his secret son with Heather, the love they shared get stronger and they put everyone in a mess, while fighting for his love...
Sweet story, not anything to die for...
I hated the narration: male and female voices very similar and the sound kept going up and down.
Overall, I liked the series.

Such a great story made laugh and tear up as well.

A different take on a story. Modern too. Love how the H stood up to the Aunt at the end and went w his heart and how he recreated the Impala part too. The only bad thing is you could tell when they went back and re recorded or added parts it was louder and had a different tone. so if you listen w headphones be prepared for a sudden change in valume

Exhilarating

Where does The Airman's E-Mail-Order Bride rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

By far one of the best books I have listened too. Not only is it an amazing story, but the reader emphasized on all characters, which made listening so much more exciting.

Another Outstanding Chance Creek Story!

I love the Chance Creek stories and the characters that inhabit them! Cora Seton does a wonderful job making unforgettable characters with real life issues and concerns. This is the fourth of four brothers and their quest to regain their home by marrying within a one year time frame to fulfill the requirements of their controlling great aunt. Colt and Heather have a history and a son that Colt didn't know about. Drama, drama, drama. Love it! The narrator did a good job, but I have ALL the other Chance Creek stories, and her interpretation of some of the characters didn't match my perception of them - especially Camilla Torres.

All the swoony and sexy second chance goodness

I loved loved Heather and Colt’s email order bride second chance secret baby fake fiancée crazy inheritance rules romance.
It is filled with all the emotions, the connections and the big feelings. Colt, an airman attached to special forces units has decided to get out of the military after a prophetic dream and needs a wife in order to reclaim his family’s ranch. So he places a wife wanted ad. Heather loved Colt when they were teenagers and has a 13 year old son, Richard, to remember him by but Colt knows nothing about his son. So Heather answers his ad under an assumed name hoping to rekindle their romance but she’s not the only contender for the position. To get to their HEA, Heather and Colt have to deal with his meddlesome aunt, the new relationship between Colt and Richard, plus an extra fiancée or two. The twists and family drama story keeps you hooked in to the very end. Along the way, the story will give you all the feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, heart hurting, and cheering. I especially loved that Richard was a wonderful and integral addition to the story rather than a flimsy story prop. This beautifully written story includes sweet moments, steamy scenes, chuckles, supportive friends, messy families, painful pasts, and all the heart squeezing love. I have loved this series and am sorry there aren’t more brothers to marry off.

Anika Solveig did a wonderful job narrating the story and breathing life into the characters with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly.

Lies lies and more lies

Ugh. When a story is full of people telling nothing but lies when the truth would solve everything I feel incredibly frustrated. Especially when the characters have seemed to have made some personal growth.
The drama in this story was too much for me

Should be read in order

I enjoyed all 4 of the stories even though they became predictable. Sometimes I don’t want to have to think about keeping characters straight or listening for clues to a mystery. This series is perfect for those times.
