A Delight, superb hero and heroine, Oct 10 2010
By Melissa - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Accidental Wedding (Mass Market Paperback)
From the very beginning I knew I was going to like The Accidental Wedding because I loved the characters. The heroine, the hero and the secondary characters are vibrant with distinctive memorable personalities.Nash Renfrew is a successful diplomat who returns to England from St. Petersburg to check on an estate he has inherited from his uncle. He also wants to find a wife who will be in all ways a suitable mate for him in his diplomatic career. On his way to view his new holdings he is thrown from his horse and awakens in a small cottage with no memory.
Maddy is a single woman raising her five younger brothers and sisters and she is an absolutely lovely heroine. She is resourceful, hard working, and so very kind. She rescues an unconscious Nash and nurses him back to health. Even while this man is unconscious there are some very memorable moments because Maddy is so determined to save this stranger.
Upon awakening Nash is surprised at his surroundings and quite taken with Maddy. Over the next few days he remembers only bits of his past and these memories are usually recalled when Nash observes the wonderful family atmosphere in the cottage, he never experienced these intimate cozy times in his own home as a child. He is amazed how much Maddy has sacrificed for her siblings and she is not bitter nor unloving but rather sweet and comforting to her half brothers and sisters. Her siblings are wonderful in this book. Each has a distinctive personality and they all are fascinated with Nash.
Nash is protective toward Maddy and her family especially since someone is harassing them at night and Maddy is being pressured to pay higher rents. He wants to help in any way he can and when Nash recovers his memory, he keeps this information from Maddy so he can stand guard over her family.
Maddy and Nash have a beautiful romance mostly because they do not let pride get in the way of their feelings. Nash can recognize when he is in the wrong and is a quick repenter. Maddy is ever practical and she does not allow others to influence her pragmatic nature. I loved how she stood up to Nash's family. She is also confident and not afraid to let others know she is more than a country miss.
Lastly Ms. Gracie paints some beautiful pictures with her words. The cheery moments in the cottage were very easy to visualize. The bee scenes (Maddy is a beekeeper) were richly detailed along with this couple's feelings and inner dialogue. This is a terrific romantic tale.

love love love, Oct 9 2010
By robyn enlund - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Accidental Wedding (Mass Market Paperback)
What a wonderful read this was. The hero, Nash is charming, delicious and wonderfully clueless about the fact he's falling in love, the heroine, Maddy is courageous and determined to save herself. Gracie builds a wonderful intimate world in Maddy's cottage and inhabits it with fully formed characters that jump from the page. Beautiful historical details and a love story that brought tears to my eyes - all with the usual Gracie witt and verve. If you haven't read Anne Gracie before, do yourself a favour.Straight to the keepers shelf (after a very late night reading).

The Accidental Wedding by Anne GracieHistorical Romance- Oct. 5th, 2010
4 stars
Anne Gracie brings to life another wonderful Regency that is part of her Devil Riders series. I instantly came to love the indomitable and pure heart of the heroine and the dashing hero who comes to save her
Maddy's loves her half brothers and sisters. She has finally found a home in a tiny run down cottage owned by the lately deceased Sir Jasper Brownrigg. They may not be rich but the locals respect her and her new found family makes her happier than she can remember. But this bucolic life is disturbed by the estate manager Mr. Harris who demands she pay an exorbitant rent or he will kick her out and a mysterious and scary `ghost' that haunts them at night. When a dashing stranger suffers a head injury when his horse throws him Maddy's tough life is made more difficult. But she refuses to let this handsome stranger die. However, even having an unconscious man in her cottage when she is unmarried could ruin her reputation. To complicate matters further, when the man awakens he suffers from amnesia! On his road to recovery Maddy can't help but be charmed by his manners and kind patience to her brothers and sisters. But what will happen when the obviously wealthy gentleman remembers who he is...
This book was a pure pleasure to read! Maddy's gentle heart and sweet goodness carry the story. She is a heroine that anyone will easily admire. The author's writing is masterful. This caring and tender story captured my attention and never let it go. The charming brothers and sisters make for mischievous and delightful reading. I enjoyed how much they all loved and supported each other even if they were poor and often in difficult circumstances. The heroine's spirit, courage and willingness to sacrifice for those she loved were heartwarming. Nash was a charming rogue and the moments with him and the children who adopted him are sweet and poignant. The only quibble I would have about this book was how much Nash fought against acknowledging his love for Maddy. Because Maddy suffered so much I wanted him to be her knight in shining armor immediately. I was very impatient with his stubbornness.
Heartfelt and charming this is a wonderful book to warm your heart.
