But will that love be enough to help Jasmine brave the waters of being a billionaire's wife?Will Jasmine finally come to terms with the crazy rich world she is about to inherit? Or will she be the runaway bride of legend?Find out at THE BILLION DOLLAR WEDDING!
It's finally here - the wedding of the year! Jasmine Bliss is to marry billionaire Ethan Cole, but with all of the gossip going on and the bad talk of Jasmine will she walk down the aisle and marry the man of her dreams?
I have loved Jasmine since she first walked into the office building of Jackson-Cole, she is a woman that does what is needed to get by in life. She has not had the easiest life...far from it actually, she is a practical person that was raised by hippies that live on a commune, while that life is well and good for her parents it isn't the life for her. (now don't get all hot and bothered, I am not looking down at hippies or anything like that, it's just not the type of life that Jasmine wants for herself and I don't blame her) When Ethan Cole interviews her and gives her the ultimate proposition I am sure that neither of them would have thought that they would be happily in love and getting married a short time later.
Jasmine has a difficult time with the way people react to her being engaged to Ethan, and it is something that she's not sure she can brush off. But with Ethan's love and dominance he will show her that he will do anything for her to feel safe and loved.
This was a great ending to The Billion Dollar Wedding. I can't wait to see who gets married next!
Cynthia Dane said that this was one of the biggest inspirations for Jasmine's wedding dress
There is a reason why Cynthia Dane has become one of my favorite authors. She writes stories that grab you from the very first page and doesn't let you go until the very last page and leaves you wanting a little bit more. The Billion Dollar Wedding: Vows, is remarkable well-written with characters that are unique and tie into previous books. With a great mix of humor, challenges, surprises, drama, emotions, twists, romance, and love, this is one book you definitely should read.

Once again, Cynthia Dane has outdone herself, many times over. This series is absolutely mind boggling. When Ms. Dane creates her characters, she takes them to a new level of hotness. I love the fact that she has a "core" series of which she has expanded, many times, using our old favourite characters as well as giving us new ones to love just as much, perhaps even more. This series is all about Ethan and Jasmine, whom I first met in "His Domination" trilogy. As we are taken along for what has proven to be a whirlwind relationship, we are also given updates of our older friends, Henry and Monica, and Ian and Kathryn, as well as a few others. This, the third book of the series, continues where book two left off, in the middle of their wedding planning, and the panics Jasmine experiences throughout. We finally get to meet her parents, and needless to say, just meeting them is worth the read. Free-living hippies with a few tricks up their sleeves, or not, they tend to embarrass not only Jasmine, but poor Ethan is beside himself. (you'll have to read to find out what this means, but I'm sure you won't regret it, it's worth it). Will they ever manage to make it to the actual wedding? Between the cattiness of some of society, the back-stabbing, gossip, bachelorette and bachelor parties, good friends and not so good friends, and of course all of the drama going on at the office, there is never a dull moment. I absolutely love Ms. Dane's tales. There is always enough naughtiness going on, and of course, hot hunky men with beautiful women to keep you on the edge of your seat, unable to put the book down. Looking forward to whatever she bestows on us next. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
This was an excellent finale to the trilogy, encompassing an array of doubts that Jasmine has to overcome before she will finally commit to marrying Ethan. To begin with there is the trophy wife prenup. This takes Jasmine completely by surprise; she didn’t care about the money, only that Ethan would treat her with respect and courtesy if they divorced. The more time Jasmine spends with Adrienne the more she begins to understand her, and is curious to know what made her end her relationship with Ethan – finally she gets to know. This is not the wedding of the summer, but the wedding of the year. Anyone who is anyone around the world would be coming to their wedding, but there is one person Jasmine wants there especially; Ethan’s father – but she has to do more than coax him, she has to challenge him! There are some unusual surprises during the bridal shower and the bachelorette party, but at Ethan’s bachelor party Monica has something special in store for Ethan, but will he succumb? As the wedding draws nearer, Jasmine is again doubting herself - can she really go through with this wedding? Confronted by Adrienne and Ethan, Jasmine listens to their many arguments and eventually realises how much she is truly loved. The promises Jasmine and Ethan then make to each is all that really matters. This was a wonderful conclusion to what has been an amazing, well-written and engaging story that has lots of twists and turns to keep it extremely interesting throughout.

A Review of The Billion Dollar Wedding: Vows by Cynthia Dane
Jasmine and Ethan's wedding - 5 stars
We finally come to the end of the trilogy. This has been touted as the wedding of the summer for the wealthy echelon and so far Jasmine has been dealing with everything pretty well. However, things are about to cause her to lose her mind. With just over two months until the wedding, Jasmine still hasn't found her dress, she finally chooses who will be standing up for her and getting all of the wedding plans finalized. Bachelorette and Bachelor parties have been planned and she is still taking things one day at a time in her own stride.
Although Jasmine knows that she loves Ethan beyond belief and is confident in his love for her, she continues to have moments of self doubt when she hears other people talking about her and placing bets on how long her marriage will last before Ethan divorces her for the right type of woman. Her friendship with Monica continues to give her great solace and insight into Ethan and his relationships with women.
We get to see more of their playful sides, as well as more of their kinky sides. But, with everything that is going on around her, will she actually make it to the wedding OR will she leave him before the wedding can even happen - out of misgivings and fear? There are a lot of twists and turns in this final chapter of their story, but it is well worth the ride!

I received this book as an ARC for an honest review.
Wow, great ending! This was a great story about Jasmine Bliss and Ethan Cole—loved the series of The Billionaire Dollar Wedding. This book was well written, and I love how Cynthia Dane incorporates characters from other books into the new books. When reading the story, it may make you feel sad, appalled, and even euphoric. Jasmine is constantly hearing people talk about her along with name calling—trophy wife, slut, and gold-digger. Jasmine had a progression of qualms to overcome about marrying Ethan and having to deal with the wealthy echelons of the socialite bliss. Because this will be the marriage of the year—there will be people from around the world attending this wedding, including princes. Can Jasmine deal with this pressure? Will Jasmine be able to fit in with these socialites? Although Jasmine loves Ethan, will this make her decide not to marry Ethan? There are several twists and turns within the story that makes it interesting. This book will pique your interest. I cannot wait to see what Cynthia’s next series will be.
This is a wonderful end to a wonderful series. What a beautiful wedding! I love the way Cynthia Dane brings in people from other series into her books, so it is like seeing past friends and catching up with them on what is going on in their lives. I also love the way she develops the characters so that we feel like we personally know them, and we feel we are experiencing their emotions right along with them. Through this book, we experience lots of different emotions: sadness, happiness, laughter, anger, love, and lust. I would love to have an older Ethan Cole. He is so sexy, loving, and caring. I also really like Jasmine. She keeps everything interesting. Then Jasmine's parents will keep you laughing. Then, we have the steamy hot sex scenes that will have you looking for an extra fan. All of this comes together to make an awesome read. I received this book from the author in return for an honest review, and I highly recommend this whole series.

Jasmine is still going crazy trying to plan all the details of her wedding to Ethan, and from hearing all the Mrs. Ethan Cole wanna be's trashing her. She finally finds her wedding gown with the help of the last person she expected. Jasmine's parents are still causing raised eyebrows, and hilariously embarassing moments. After a visit from the happy couple, Ethan's father finally agrees to attend the wedding. Everything seems to have gone off without too much drama, even the bachelor and bachelorette parties. Wonderful read, it had me laughing at times and then keeping my fingers crossed that Jasmine and Ethan would have their happily ever after. Wow, this is a fantastic conclusion to this series, I loved these books!
Loved this series. I ended up liking Adrienne, which wasn't possible in the beginning. The plot twists & turns continued to keep you involved in the story and wondering what would happen. The characters from her other stories were intertwined into the story but not in such a way that you needed to have read all of her books to understand. I laughed at the embarrassment her parents were causing through out. Let's face it, we all have relatives that are off the wall! The book runs you through all emotions and the sex scenes are spicy but not offensive. I feel you do need to read the first 2 books in the series to completely understand all that is happening in this book.

OH MY, OH MY what an ending and WHAT A WEDDING! A++++++++++
What an AWESOME ending to this trilogy!
Cynthia Dane has outdone herself with this ending!
Right up to the Very end you were on the edge of your seat asking "will it of won't it." As usual, Jasmine's parents continue to bring on the laughs, or embarrassments. Ethan will NEVER be the same after mom walks in. There continue to be ups and downs as Jasmine continues to wonder "Is this really where I should be" and Ethan tries to convince her that ONLY she matters to him. There were many tears and TONS of fun in this book and I just LOVED how other characters join were woven in and out of the whole series.
You will LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book.

This is the conclusion to the three part series featuring Jasmine and Ethan's billion dollar wedding. Throughout this installment, I kept wondering if there was going to be a wedding and if there was would Jasmine even have a dress! There were some really great scenes in this installment and once again there was a nice tie-in with characters from other Cynthia Dane novels. Of course, they were all invited guests at the wedding of the year. If you've read the other books, this is an absolute must-read. Now we just need to get a story for Adrienne!
Book three picks up where book two left off. The wedding of Jasmine and Ethan has finally arrived but not without its challenges. Jasmine's parents are hilarious but so embarrassing. Jasmine is still facing an uphill battle with the society women whose families do business with Ethan.
I loved the veiled reference to Billionaires in Vegas as well as the inclusion of all of the characters across the author's series. I look forward to what the future holds for all of these characters and hope that some new series will spin off of this one.

This book was an ARC sent by the author for a review. I didn't realize these characters were from previous books and series. Not knowing that, I felt no connection between Jasmine and Ethan. He came across as being unfeeling. It is not until his bachelor party did I finally warm up to him. The way that he acted towards the girls show that he really cared and wanted to only be with Jasmine. I'm going to have to go back and read from the original series so I can understand the characters better in this book. I did like the ending of this book and I feel like there is another series coming with the way this book ended.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. "Vows" is the phenomenal ending to Ethan and Jasmine's journey down the aisle. I can only hope that we are kept up to date on their lives as The Billion Dollar Wedding series continues. In "Vows" we see Ethan and Jasmine take their sexual relationship to the ultimate level of hotness; who even thought knew that was possible? Jasmine gains confidence in herself and in her submission, which is the most beautiful thing. And her weddingdress is to die for! Can't wait to see who is next up; Adrienne and Amber, Ian and Kathryn or Nadia, or someone else???
I love the billion dollar wedding books. I couldn't put them down. Ethan and Jasmine are two perfect souls for each other and you get sucked into their lives wondering what is gonna happen next! I hope we get more about these two lovebirds. I laughed out loud more than once reading Vows. It's a great read with lot's of our other favorite people in it too! I received a ARC for an honest review.
This book will have you on the edge of your seat.I literally wanted to cry at one point.I was afraid the wedding would not happen.The characters in this story are so believable you will feel like you are there.I was given this book for an honest review and I would recommend this book to everyone.
