Narrator Sarah Mollo-Christensen pilots listeners through a fantastical experience. Imagine a mystery man promising 10 million dollars for a Los Angeles wife. From cattle-call auditions to finalist interviews, Mollo-Christensen shares the stories of three competitors. Listeners will hear Caroline's deep longing for Mr. Right and laugh at her pageant mother's pushiness. Mollo-Christensen's lower register works very well for Janie, whose resilience overcomes every challenge at work but not in her dating life. And gadget-loving Suze Lee's quirky personality thrives in this dialogue-driven audiobook. Mollo-Christensen hits the awkward moments and the sweet with equal sensitivity. As a BookShots title, meant to be a quick listen, the wrap-up seems rushed and incomplete, with Mollo-Christensen struggling to make the winning couple's connection as strong as the three women's friendship.
