Note: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All of the opinions are my own and this did not affect my review in any way.

I requested this book from Netgalley because I was in the mood for a fun romantic comedy and after reading the blurb on this one, I was interested right away.

Accidentally in Love follows Katherine Patterson who after quitting her job and breaking up with the guy she though was the one, she decided to move back home and open up her own art gallery.

I really enjoyed this book, it was fun and easy to read and I was very intrigued with the whole art gallery aspect of it. In the beginning I had trouble with the main love interest, he seemed very rude and not at all charming, however, once we get to know him, I was immediately drawn to him. The banter between the two characters is amazing and I definitely laughed out loud several times while reading this.

The characters are very well developed and the writing is very easy to fly through. The book doesn’t not have common clichés or tropes which makes it even more enjoyable. Moreover, I really appreciated that the book didn’t just focus on the romantic relationship, it was very interesting to see Katie trying to open up her new business and getting a glimpse of the lives of so many characters, the romance was an aspect of the book but it was not the main plot of it (which in my opinion is great). Finally, the character growth of Kate and Kit is fantastic and very realistic, I loved how they both realized they weren’t perfect.

The reason I took one star was due to the toxic friendship portrayed in the book,
Spoiler the main character has a very toxic / demanding friend and even though Katie confronts her, the friend never ends up apologizing or admitting she was wrong and things just go back to normal.


Overall, this book is one of the best romantic-comedy book I have ever read and I totally recommend it if you are looking for a fast, fun and easy to read romance that has more than romance in the plot.

Thanks so much to the author, publisher and Netgalley for allowing me read and review this book.
