About the Book

Title: An Accidental Romance
Series: The Jennings Family
Author: Karen Tuft
Genre: Regency Romance
Publisher: Covenant Communications
Release Date: December 6, 2021

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.

My Review

An Accidental Romance
by Karen Tuft
Book 3 in the Jennings Family series
Rating: 4/5

As someone who has never read anything from Karen Tuft before, I was delighted by this sweet romance that has many similarities to Jane Austen and her commentary on society at the time. I found the story refreshing and beautifully written. I now need to go back and read the first two books in the series. However, I was able to read this book as a standalone. The author provides some family trees in the beginning to help keep track of characters but I honestly found it unnecessary to refer back to it.

Rebecca Jennings is a sweet young lady whose dreams of her first season “out” in London society are crushed when she fractures her ankle due to an accidental encounter with her new neighbor, Mr. Ben Fortescue, the Earl of Winton. Ben is a widower with a young baby girl who is trying to hide away from society. The characters have some great interactions and some electric chemistry together. The author creates a story where her characters can grow and maybe even fall in love.

Highly recommend if you enjoy clean, sweet romance with some Jane Austen flair.

My thanks to the author and publisher for providing me with an ARC of the book. All opinions expressed here are entirely my own. No positive review was expected and no compensation received.
