Description

Two eccentric orphans bring together a grumpy viscount and the free-spirited heroine who steals his heart in the first novel in Eloisa James’s new Accidental Brides series, in which haughty aristocrats find themselves married to the wrong women. 

He wants a nanny, not a bride…

Suddenly guardian to twins, Viscount Dominic Kelbourne is luckily betrothed to a suitable lady—until she elopes. With no time to woo, Dominic decides to marry his fiancée’s unconventional sister. Torie isn’t perfect, but their kisses are so passionate that society thinks he’s actually chosen her.

She wants to marry for love…

Torie has never been able to make sense of words on a page, so she has turned her talents to art. She longs for a man who values her as she is… but marries for the sake of the twins. She doubts Dominic is capable of love, let alone respect, but as their heated debates turn into something more, Torie begins to imagine a life as a wife, not a nanny. 

But when the arrogant viscount finds that his viscountess has stolen his heart, he’ll have to give all he has to win her love.

    This book, like so many of hers, made me FEEL. It was a pinch in my chest when the hero disappointed the heroine and when they both had the courage to be vulnerable. I don’t have the words to describe it, but this book was heartbreaking and heartwarming. Thank you EJ for another witty and moving book. The next one can’t come fast enough!

    Probably my most favorite book written by one of my most favorite authors, Eloisa James! The characters had real life issues that the reader was truly engaged in. Delightful!!! I loved being there and want more now!!!!

    I pre-ordered this book based on the description and then the preview. I thought it was going to be so good. Boy was I wrong. It took forever to get to the main plot, then it dragged on and on. Monotonous and nonsensical! The final chapter was mildly less disappointing than the rest of the book; maybe because I was just so relieved to have it over with. I don’t want to “spoil” anything for anyone else but writing in one color of ink instead of another because that’s all that can be understood is simply asinine! Also, unless this woman had dyslexia, there is no reason for her affliction. This made no sense whatsoever! What really put the proverbial last nail in the coffin for me was the incessant use of the word “lick”. He wanted to lick her. He is licking her. He had licked her. Good grief, please stop with all the licking. Surely the author could come up with a different word or another term. Apparently not! So disappointing.
