Book Review: The Duke’s Accidental Wife by Erica Ridley

OMG! I don’t know how I could have missed writing a review for “The Duke’s Accidental Wife,” the final book in Erica Ridley’s “Dukes of War” series. With lots of laugh out loud funny moments with a sprinkling of heartaches and then finally finding trust, Ridley save the best for last.

The story of Katherine Ross and Lawrence, the Duke of Ravenwood who were simply not so getting married to use today’s vernacular. They were set in their ways. But, social faux pas happened and because this is the Regency era, they found themselves at the altar.

This is just the beginning of the story though, not the happily ever after. Katherine and Lawrence found themselves at odds. But, there is a spark there, though both did not see it at first. As Katherine and Lawrence discover things about each other, they also discover something about themselves. And that is how they earned their happily ever after.

A great afternoon read during the weekend or while you are on holiday. “The Duke’s Accidental Wife” is Rated T for Teens.

Miss Katherine Ross is a wealthy, eccentric socialite who knows precisely what she wants: No husband. No children. No candlelit tête-à-tête with the insufferably emotionless Duke of Ravenwood. She’s convinced his heart is ice — until she touches that chiseled chest for herself. One lapse in judgment is all it takes to turn both their lives topsy-turvy…

The Duke of Ravenwood isn’t cold and haughty, but a secret romantic who has always dreamt of marrying for love. Instead, he gets Miss Katherine Ross — a headstrong hoyden intent on unraveling his carefully ordered world. He doesn’t know whether to kiss her or throttle her. Can they survive each other’s company long enough to turn a compromise into love?
