The Duke’s Accidental Wife

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?

Rating/Review: ☕☕☕☕ (4 cups of vibrant cafe)
The Duke's Accidental Wife is the seventh book in Erica Ridley's popular Duke of War series. This was such a funny and sweet, poignant and heartbreakingly romantic story about two polar opposite personalities who, caught in a compromising position, get married. How opposite? Well, one loves entertaining and meeting new people, the other abhors crowds and gatherings and will only do so in the name of duty (or in the name of Love). She is eccentric, he is a Duke who takes his role seriously and does things by the book and rule of law. She is against getting married while he is all for it but only in the name of love (we're getting an idea who's the romantic here). He is parliament, she is for the arts. He wants a family while she is petrified of giving birth and will only bear children as a duty in the far, far off future. She thinks poetry isn't really a thing for patrons of the art while he can only vent his walled off emotions in poetic verse where no one can read them. He kissed her, she kissed back and there in lies the story of how Katherine and Lawrence melded their two opposing personalities into one fantastic romance. Its a must read for fans of the series and lighthearted opposite attracts story for romance readers.

The Secret Star by K.C. Finn

It was just another day for 35-year-old-turning-36-tomorrow Jeffrey Mercier, when he woke up on his flat in London in 1969. He went on with his usual routine, going to work for his boring job at Harlan and Locke. It did seem to be an ordinary day, until a young woman told him that he's gonna die in ten minutes if he won't go out of the building. Of course he didn't believe her, yet he found himself outside the building ten minutes later, the building blown up. He was saved again from a stampede by the same young woman whom he met ten minutes ago, introducing herself as Marie-Elizabeth Giraud. Marie was tasked to save Jeff from death and take him to the Time Agency, where he's going to be inducted as a time agent. Later that day, Jeffrey Mercier's life as Mister Mercy begins.

Blog Hop Giveaway:Switched by Cassie Mae

Switched by Cassie Mae was a funny and often frustrating read but highly entertaining. Kayla, Wesley, Reagan and Talon were all friends. Reagan and Talon were a couple while Kayla and Wesley, well they've been pining for these two since high school. Told from Kayla's point of view, she, dragging Wesley along hatches a plan to break the happy couple apart. Because as everyone can see Talon is her soulmate while Wesley is Reagan's. Thus starts the funs and the laughs and the musical chairs between the four. Kayla as a character was frustrating initially for me, I have no idea whether its because she was being an evil bestfriend to Reagan or she really was in love with Talon. I could not really hate nor empathize with her at the start. As the story progressed and the romance part began, her sudden self awareness becomes believable. The pace, the tone and style of writing was excellent. I can see that Cassie Mae has developed her own unique voice in the
