About this audiobook
The First Man You Meet
Shelly Hansen was horrified when her great-aunt’s wedding dress arrived—because, according to family legend, she was destined to marry the next man she met. So when she tripped on an escalator and fell into Mark Brady’s arms, she told him—and herself—that she wasn’t interested in marriage. But then she started seeing him everywhere.… Coincidence?
Is The Man You’ll Marry
After her own wedding, Shelly sends her best friend, Jill Morrison, the dress—which is delivered to Jill’s hotel in Hawaii. But at least the man she sat beside on the plane—gorgeous grouch Jordan Wilcox—can’t be the man in question, can he? She met him before she got the dress!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Sweet stories. I wonder if the third story was ever written.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5In Macomber’s romance novel, Jill Morrison wants to wed but she isn’t interested in man who puts his career first. When she comes in contact with a wedding dress complete with a legend attached to it, she’s stumped. According to legend, the first man you meet when you receive the gown is the man you’ll wed. But the first man Jill encounters after receiving the dress is Jordan Wilcox, a man devoted to his career. Now Jill is forced to confront her feelings and desires while ignoring the so-called magical dress. Can she find true love with Jordan or must she simple settle?A fun story that keeps you hanging.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Boring pair of whirlwind romances between unbelievable characters with unrealistic motivations. The magic wedding dress was one of the more believable elements in the book.
To be fair, I only bought it because Fictionwise was pretty much giving it away with a 100% rebate. I don't think Debbie Macomber is my kind of author. Far too chaste and precious for me. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The Man You'll Marry is a book with two stories. The first one is about a woman, Shelly, who is a little bit of an artist type who gets a dress from her aunt that is supposed to be magical. She falls for the first man she meets who is also her polar opposite. The second story is about Shelly's friend who then gets the dress and falls for a businessman who works too hard. The ending is very weak in my opinion and both stories are of course predictable like almost all romances are.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Hadn't realized as I bought this book that it was actually to shorter but contiguous stories. I laughed out loud from start to finish! Debbie Macomber rarely disappoints and this time she was shining brightly. These are stories you could read again and again with equal delight.
