Last Name: A Mistaken Marriage Standalone Romance (Country Love Collection) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 404 ratings

"Full of emotions, funny moments, unexpected situations and the perfect HEA." - Carolina Leon
From bestselling author, Dr. Rebecca Sharp, comes a swoony, accidental marriage romance.

What happens in Vegas…
A regret-free girls’ weekend was supposed to help Carrie Bishop forget about her last relationship and cross-country move. Because when you’ve lost everything, letting loose is easy.

James Arden knew the stakes in Vegas were high, but saving a beautiful blonde at a Blackjack table wasn’t the kind of risk he thought he’d be taking.

Unfortunately, there’s only one recipe for Vegas. One part instant connection. Two parts too much alcohol. A splash of scavenger-hunt serendipity.
Shake and enjoy.

Until Carrie wakes to a ring on her finger and a marriage certificate tying her to the illegible signature of a man who’s gone.

It was supposed to be just one night, but now she doesn’t even know her last name.

Coming home married was bad, but walking into work the next day was worse. Carrie’s mistake didn’t stay in Vegas, and her mystery husband is no longer a mystery:
he’s her new boss.

James knows what they have is special, and he’ll do anything to prove it. And as their undeniable attraction ups the ante, Carrie hopes she can get back her name without losing her heart in the process.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Rebecca Sharp always loved a good love story. Let's face it, when you include a romance novel on your 8th grade summer reading list just to see if the teacher would notice (she didn't!), she was bound to give writing one of her own a go. There's really no corner of romance that she doesn't (or wouldn't) enjoy writing, except maybe aliens, much to her husband's dismay, so her large catalog features a little something for everyone. However, her love of shows like NCIS and Criminal Minds makes her favorite stories to write the ones with some kind of suspense and crime solving.

When she's not writing, she's at her office treating patients, and somewhere between those two things, you'll find her wandering the globe with her husband always searching for their next adventure.

Does what happened in Vegas really stay in Vegas?
This was a feel good, cute romance that had a ton of steam. I have been enjoying this Country Love Collection where the author takes a Country Song and turns it into a book, this one is loosely based on Last Name by Carrie Underwood. Carrie Bishop and a few of her work friends know they are about to loose their jobs because of their hotel being taken over by a bigger corporation so they decide to head to Vegas to blow off some steam and have a little bit of fun while they can. Only Carrie gets separated from her friends and runs into a bit of trouble, this is where she meets James. Oh James, he would be the knight in shinning armor if this was a historical romance. I just loved the way he swooped in and not only helped her out of a bad situation but he went so far as to want to help her get to her friends safely and that is where the fun really started. If you read the blurb for the story you know Carrie was on a Scavenger Hunt with her friends and oh the fun things they had to do, it was great, I think I am going to make a list and have a ball the next time I'm in Vegas, only I wont be waking up married to someone I don't know like Carrie did. LOL Now imagine getting to work and heading into a meeting with your new boos who you know is going to fire you only to realize it JAMES who you not only are married to but who left you the morning after without a word. LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN! Dr. Rebecca Sharp did a great job with giving us two likable characters that had chemistry and yes there was some angst but it wasn't over the top. My only issue was that it was to short, I really wish the story was longer. I would have loved more. If you enjoy Vegas Mistaken Weddings, Contemporary Romances, or just a fun steamy read I would recommend this book to you. Happy Reading!!!

    Loved this. Sweet yet steamy story. James meets Carrie by chance in Vegas both on deprecate trips for one reason or another and he reduces the damsel in distress from a drunken jerk in the casino. Then they spend the night together completing a scavenger hunt after her so called friends ditch her. Then wind up MARRIED. fast forward next morning. He isn’t there in bed and the last names on the certificate are illegible. She goes back to work and he sets off to the new hotel and casino he acquired. unbeknownst to them he was now her boss. They are drawn to each other despite her determination to fight it off. Loved their chemistry and relationship.

    This was an easy reading which I liked. However, I felt it was too clicheé. I was not able to connect with the characters and the "drama" was a little too much too.

    The drunk Vegas “Surprise! We’re married!” trope will always be one of my favorites and I will read anything that fits that category. So when I heard on FB that Dr. Rebecca Sharp has one of these storylines I had to read it right away. It was really cute. James (and his need to recuse everyone) leads him to “rescue” Carrie from someone being a jerk to her in Vegas starts their crazy night. I loved their scavenger hunt, so fun and it was easy to see why Carrie fell for him. How their paths crossed again was predictable but I enjoy a bit of an office romance too so it was all good for me. Short and sweet and perfect.

    5 LAST NAME STARS!! This was a sweet perfect story to make me smile. Carrie and James had one fantastic night with so much fun, sexiness and love. As always Rebecca Sharp gives us a phenomenal story to get lost in for a couple of hours.

    Reviewed in Brazil on June 25, 2020
    I seriously love this series. I always have a ritual to follow, first I listened to the song who inspired the book, then I watch the videoclip and at last, I finally read the book. I honestly love this one so much, the couple was perfect, the story was stop on and my only complain is that it was over too soon.

    James and Carrie met in Las Vegas, after he saved her from a grabby a$$hole guy. With an out of this world chemistry from the beginning they decide to do together the Around-The-World scavenger hunt challenge. In the next morning, last thing the know, he out of her room and they are married. Few days later, they discovered that he is her new boss.

    First of all, I need to find a James for me! He was perfect, loving, caring, protective and would do everything for the ones he loved. But I loved even more about him is how once he set his mind and heart at something or someone he would chase forever. And Carrie was perfect for him. She was strong, supportive and funny. And although she had a little problem with her self-esteem, she held her ground and knew her worth.

    I swoon over the ending, it was so sweet and romantic and super the two of them! I just wish it was a little longer and told more about their future, because I couldn’t get enough of them! And I now I found out that the book in the series will be a Holiday one! Omg, I can’t wait!

    Dr Rebecca Sharp has just catapulted herself straight into one click territory. From the very first page, I was hooked by Carrie and James’ romance. This is a story of overcoming past mistakes, learning to trust again and taking the leap of faith to follow your heart, and she absolutely nailed it! A beautiful story with engaging characters, a swoony alpha hero and a curvy, insecure heroine you can’t help but root for to get her happily ever after.

    Who hasn’t been to Vegas with stars in their eyes, dreaming of meeting their ideal man and having a whirlwind courtship ending at a drive through chapel?.... No, just me? Well that was reality for Carrie. On a quick trip to Vegas with her colleagues before expecting to lose her job on her return. James is her saviour when another reveller gets a bit too handsy. Losing her friends along the way, James decides to keep Carrie safe whilst looking for them. The sparks fly from their very first meeting and the heat between them is tangible, you can feel every bit of the sexual tension, which eventually leads them back to the bedroom. Sadly, upon waking, Carrie finds herself alone... with a marriage certificate showing a signature she can’t decipher, losing her job becomes the least of her worries when she realises she doesn’t even know her last name. She needn’t worry though, come Monday she comes face to face with her new husband... and now, boss! James knew from the very first night, Carrie was the one for him, leaving her the morning after their accidental marriage wasn’t planned and there was nothing he could do, but now she’s back in his life, he’s determined to keep her there, but Carrie is determined to push him away, requesting an annulment, who will win the battle of the heart?

    I devoured this story in just a few short hours, ignoring the world around me to escape into this one. I couldn’t put it down. I highly recommend you give it a go.
