The Duke’s Accidental Bride

The Duke’s Accidental Bride


by Eva Devon


⭐⭐⭐/5

 

I started this book with so many expectations and hopes, but found that I probably would have enjoyed the book more if I went in completely blind and without the expectations I created.


The Duke’s Accidental Bride tells the story of an impoverished family putting all their hoes into the potential marriage of their second daughter after the first falls for a vicar and decides to marry for love, rather than fortune.


But, alas, the second daughter, Jaqueline has never been interested in romance and has dreams of pursuing her love of the piano… how will she find a husband that will allow her to continue her own pursuits???


By going to the vary man who created the match for her sister, her brother’s best friend, their neighbour and the Duke of Stone, A.K.A. the Matchmaking Duke!


He agrees to find her a husband since he has ruined her life plans…. but his matchmaking skills seem to be at a loss with her. That is until he lets his attraction and hers to finally collide! Duh, duh, duh! Resulting in her becoming the Duke’s accidental bride!!!


Like I said at the beginning, I wish I wasn’t reading and waiting for the forced engagement. Their matchmaking and unique interactions would have been more enjoyable if I wasn’t anticipating the “accidental bride” scenario and just going with the flow of the story. 



The Duke’s Accidental Bride by Eva Devon was release August 1st, 2022.



I received a complimentary copy of this ebook from Entangled Publishing through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
