- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated

Lots of ethical problems with billionaires. Very American dream of this cis white man.
Also, trigger warning for lots of sick child content- huge emotional weight.
Last note, lots of God talk. Faith plays a big role, etc.

As a mom with a child with a disease that can progress, I can understand how Kerri felt. My child won't die, but she will lose her ability to walk. Just recently we were told she is progressing. Our first time being told this. She is 11. As mothers, we would do anything to save our children. There is research being done now in the disease my daughter as. I hope they can have answer or a cure before my daughter gets worse.
I love this book. Susan Mallery wrote it perfectly. I knew that Kerri & Nathan would find their way to each other, but I was not sure how the book would end for Cody.
A must read!

I just cried my way through this whole book while alternately laughing at Kerri. I love that she's strong, kooky and determined to save her son.

That is not how science works. Just. Wow.
Although she did manage to invest a lot of money, and there are a lot of research physicians peddling cures for diseases if you pay enough, so maybe it's not that far-fetched.
Except, it worked. And everything turned out happy. Meh.

Accidentally Yours was touching, clever, funny, heartfelt, and romantic! It's so much more than the synopsis and cover elude to. I was little prepared for the feelings evoked by this emotional story. Of the thirty-one Susan Mallery books I've read so far, this gem now holds the top spot for favorite! I can't recommend it heartily enough!

I love this book. It is by far one my favorite by Susan Mallery. If you're a fan of her books or any romance in general, this book will probably blow you away. Don't miss it!

I'm going to preface this by saying that I normally love Susan Mallery books. However... this was not one of them.
Kerri Sullivan, the "heroine" of this story really annoyed the crap out of me. This book came so close to DNF for me. Yes, I get that people will do anything for their children but this is just ridiculous. Blackmailing a really rich man and playing on his emotions to try and save her son? And said billionaire going along with it. This book is just too twee. It doesn't deal with Nathan's emotions
Save your Susan Mallery reading for her Buchanan's or "Fool's Gold" series.

they just end up getting married and having more children. He never works through his first son's death. And there's just a miracle cure just as Kerri's son is about to die? I hate, hate sad books but his death would have made this story so much better.Save your Susan Mallery reading for her Buchanan's or "Fool's Gold" series.
