I really enjoyed it!

Initially, I wasn't sure about this story. Seemed okay reading the synopsis, but this actually a good story. The reader was excellent with the sound and emotion behind her voices. The story was fun, romantic, and emotional (the scene with the child got me a little teary-eyed). I've listened to this story twice so far. It's not heavy reading (listening), there are no BIG cases to solve or murders committed. It's an enjoyable love story with a heart!

Slightly predictable but, good listen

I am lucky to be able to listen to books as I work. This one, by far, made the day go by faster!
The commitment of mother to child is truly what miracles are made of. Worth the credit.

Good plot unlikeable MC

A well paced and engaging plot, but I found the MC Kerri completely self centred, ungrateful and rude. Good performance by the narrator

Very interesting and enjoyable entertainment

If you could sum up Accidentally Yours in three words, what would they be?

Very light reading.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Accidentally Yours?

The interaction between the wealthy loner and the frantic mom was very moving! There were a few moments that brought tears to my eyes as she dealt with her dying son.

I really like this book

If you are looking for a romance book that has great sex scenes and dramatic tension between the main character and his or her love interest, then this is not the book for you. This book is about a single mother that is willing to do anything to find a cure for her sick dying son. I found this book to be really good. It is well written, and somewhat exciting. I will admit it had me crying throughout half of the book, but it was well worth it. I will be listening to this book again.

Miracles Happen

Combine Cinderella, saucy lead, sick child, miracle cure, and sexy billionaire. Stir in great voices by Plummer. Serve with a whacky environmentalist sister, tortured nerdy scientist, and flights by Supermom. What's not to like?

Loved this book..

Beautiful story, well written and
performed. The epilogue brings it to a full conclusion.

Super Mom to the Rescue!!!

First, let me say this was the best narration! Fantastic Job!

What will a mother do to save her only child...pretty much anything! This book is filled with such heartwarming emotions. The tenacious heroine will do anything for her son. She will leap tall buildings and find a cure! This book kept me on my emotional toes. I was either laughing out loud or sobbing. What a wonderful story. I will certainly be listening to this one again.

This just missed the mark

Wanted: to be relieved from dying child book when looking for a simple fun romance. I am not sure how the idea of mixing in one dead child and a dying one became a great foundation for a romance book. It just seems to me... kinda, i don't know, depressing, sad, and all around- not fun. This is why I usually stray away from Non-Fiction. If i really wanted my pleasure reading to be real life... then sure, but this is supposed to be for FUN! This book, not fun. I mean, I see the fantasy in it.

Single mother, on the brink of poverty, sick child, cue the billionaire.

But this book focuses too much on the process of "finding a cure" (which, cough, is totally and completely bogus... plus i work in scientific research, and i just had to continuously roll my eyes... which brings me back to why i don't read "real life" books). So, had she just ditched the "cure" story plot line, i'm sure i would have enjoyed it more. Since she didn't... i don't like this book. not credit worthy. Drags on. NOT a normal susan mallery book. Usually her reads are laugh out loud funny, with romance whipped in!

This one just left me wanting to get put out of my misery.

good

not a steamy romance, but very sweet, solid story
