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.

Remember Love

Remember Love Ravenswood series, Book 1 by Mary Balogh ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Historical romance queen, Mary Balogh introduces us to another brilliant extended family and reminds up to remember love in one swoop with this series opener! First off, this epic second chance romance gave me pure romantic chills that were remittent to reading Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Her beautiful storytelling and detailed descriptions and character building really immersed me into this story and made me root for second chances and love! Childhood neighbours, Devlin Ware and Gwyneth Rhys never know the other felt the same attraction and pull towards the other until the stars aligned at the neighbourhood fete and they finally discover their mutual affection… but they were not mean to be young lovers, since family scandal befalls Devin and he is banished from his family home.  White no where to go and a determination to shed his innocence and become a man, he enlist in a foot regiment… and stays away at war ...

White Knight Needed

White Knight Needed Reluctant Heroes, Book 2 by Betina Krahn ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Barclay Howard is bigger and burlier than your average gentleman… and thus he has found himself to be somewhat of an antidote to the fairer sex. As a result he is more often found behind the pages of his Ivanhoe novel than out and about attempting to court a fair lady. But when his path crosses with down on her luck Norah Capshaw, his white knight complex rises up to make him go above and beyond again and again to be her hero… even though she is incredibly reluctant to the idea! This was a fun adventure romance filled with roadside hijinks, and a family mystery. Barclay was a perfect hero in this book. He was always there offering support and rescue to Norah. On the other side Norah’s resistance of Barclay and his efforts was the only wet blanket on this otherwise delightfully sweet romance!   Overall, this is my second Betina Kran book and I find her writing very light hearted and action packed.

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge

A Duke for Miss Townsbridge The Townsbridges, Book 4 by Sophie Barnes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 Sophie Barnes is a master at the novella! Every time I read one of her novellas, it is just perfect! Characters that are developed and graphics you, quick flowing plots to move the story and an ending to delight! As a duke, Matthew believes he should be able to marry anyone he decides on… and he decides that the perfect bride to fit into his unconventional life is his neighbour, Sarah. Since Sarah has never even met Mathew before his proposal, she decides that a courtship is needed before she make up her mind! I was was immediately invested in the non-traditional courtship between nearly on the shelf Sarah, and her reclusive duke for a neighbour Matthew. The determination and genuine personalities of both characters carries this book off effortlessly and would leave me wanting for more if the story had not been finished up so neatly! I adore a good romance novella and liken it to the perfect bite ...
