ABOUT THE BOOK
Rebecca Jennings’s first London Season has been absolutely ruined, and one person alone is responsible: Mr. Ben Fortescue. If her new neighbor hadn’t startled her, she would never have broken her ankle, leaving her bored and frustrated at home in the country while her sister enters the London Season alone. Although, it was rather gallant of him to carry her home . . .

For his part, Ben feels terrible about the role he played in Miss Rebecca Jennings’s accident. In the days that follow their first disastrous meeting, he finds himself inexorably drawn to the surprising young woman—first out of guilt and then out of a stirring affection. But Ben hides a secret: he has not been completely forthright about his identity or about the dark secrets of his past that would make it impossible for romance to blossom with Miss Jennings. Despite his love for her, he knows he must let her go.

With her ankle finally healed but her heart now broken, Rebecca is left with little choice but to throw herself into the Season. With eligible men circling this late addition to the Marriage Mart, it seems that Rebecca will have no shortage of suitors. If only her heart were free to give.


REVIEW
An Accidental Romance is part of the Jennings Family series by Karen Tuft. The only other book of this series that I've read is The Gentleman's Deception. I found this book could be read as a stand-alone or as part of the series. The plot moved along swiftly, and the author gave the characters time to get to know each other and let the romance slowly unfold with events and dialogue. I also felt like the author had a fresh take on a romance for the Regency time period. The characters were likeable, and I liked the twists and turns in the story. There were things in the story that I couldn't have predicted as a reader and there were other things that was easily predictable. Some of the social norms for the Regency time period was ignored from the very beginning and I found that a bit odd that it was left like that when it could have easily been remedied and it threw me off for a bit. I kept expecting more to happen, but most of the other breakaways from the time period were explained and seemed justified. Other than that, I found it was a clean, wholesome romance and a fun, quick read. To learn more about An Accidental Romance, click here.
