There’s just one rather significant problem: Ally is actually Alessandro Macias, son of a tough Brazilian hotel magnate. So he hightails it to Las Vegas… where he meets the beautiful maid Ally May. On the eve of his twenty-fifth birthday, the billionaire’s son discovers that despite being gay, he must marry a woman before midnight or lose a fifty-million-dollar inheritance. Taylor Fitzgerald needs a last-minute bride. Once again John Solo did a great job gathering all the different currents of the moods.He’ll marry the maid to get $50 million but a secret could queer the deal. The ending couldn’t have been more perfect, white night swooping in and saving the day. The only thing, I never saw, nerdy Taylor as the ‘play boy’ he was always made out to be. The concerns they showed are valid and liked how they weren’t glossed over.
Getting to know them, growing in the love and relationship as they did. Ally just wants to live his life, so in doing that has ran away from everything and everyone he knows. But finds out there is a caveat in the will that no one told him about. Taylor has been looking for this money for years, not for himself but to set up some safe groups for LGBT kids around the area. The playboy that in a flash has to change his life and the son that just wants to live his life. We have all the normally characters, evil greedy father, father that just wants ‘the best’ for his child. This audio is just over 5 hours and it moves the whole time. However, I enjoyed listening to this and still really love this fun, light story with a bright, happy ending. He does a lot to try to differentiate the characters, but he makes no real attempt to do a Spanish accent for Ally so I was a bit disappointed and then when he did one for Ally’s father it wasn’t super great.
Audio John Solo is a good narrator and has a good sense of pacing and “emoting”. Until… well… stuff happens and then other things are revealed… and feelings … and hot smexy times… and lots of really fun story telling! I loved this version of the “shot gun marriage” trope and I highly recommend it to fans of guys in drag, evil fathers, nefarious lawyers, sweet but clueless guys with big hearts and millionaires.
The two agree to be married right away and run back to California to perpetuate the image of a happily married het couple. The miracle shows up in the form of the hotel maid who happens to need an escape from “her” father and marriage will do the trick. Okay – put on your “suspend your disbelief glasses”- because this story is absolutely wonderful if absolutely unbelievable Taylor finds out at the very last second that in order to inherit $50 million he needs to be married before his 25th birthday – which is tomorrow! He scrambles to find an answer, but when that answer ends up with a broken leg, he’s left to find a miracle. Put on the "suspend the disbelief glasses" & enjoy
