OMG, this was an amazing and beautiful love story about Annabelle (Bella) Reed and Drake Larkin that involves a fake marriage, murder, kidnapping, mystery, suspense, and intrigue that continues to keep you glued to the pages of this fascinating story with some steamy sex scenes that are off-the-chart hot! You NEED to READ! I wasn’t expecting the turn this story took; it has quite an unexpected revelation that may leave you flabbergasted but it is jaw-dropping good! The story held my attention, was exciting and entertaining; but it also was heartwarming, emotional, and humorous at times. Bella comes from a wealthy family—mainly from her Grandpa (Gramps), and she loved him more so than her own mother and father because he showed her love. We heard of the wicked stepmother from the fairytale, but this wicked mother (Molly) has surpassed the fairytale stepmother. Bella’s father was quiet, and there were times I kept saying that her father needs to grow a backbone and stop letting his wife rule him. Drake Larkin is tall, handsome, swoon-worthy, and sexy as hell. Drake was rescued by Bella’s Gramps during a blizzard when his vehicle broke down by his ranch. Both of them got along because of their service in the Army, and he became Gramps ‘helper’. After Gramps dies, the things he had in his Will is astounding. When Drake meets Bella, he likes the feisty, sassy, and obstinate beautiful woman. Read Bella and Drake’s journey—it is one hell of a rollercoaster ride! What happens after their fake marriage? Find out what Edison, the horse, role plays—you will love him! ACCIDENTAL KNIGHT was everything I hoped it would be—emotional, angsty, and beguiling from the beginning until the end. There are several twists and turns within the story that makes it interesting. Nicole Snow manages to weave some suspenseful plotlines centered on romantic ideas with artfully developed main characters. The storyline is fluid, and it will pique your interest. Highly recommend this book.
A Nicole Snow does it again with Drake and Bella story!
Annabelle “Bella” Reed returned to her hometown to attend her grandfather funeral only to be surprised by his will and the helper/old army buddy lol. The will came with many stipulated but only one stands out and was a shocker…she is unaware that she is married.
Drake Larkin is an ex-military taking in by Jonah Reed when he was at his lowest point in life. He became Jonah helper, companion and security. Jonah was always one step ahead of his opponent in the oil industry which led him to the stiff stipulation in his will.
An amazing story of money hungry jerks, secrets, greed, manipulation and some humor. Edisonis a witty horse who is addicted to candy canes and will steal your heart with his escape plans all day long.
You don’t want to miss the twists, turns, gut-wrenching challenges and hot steaming chemistry between these two. This was hot and steamy in some parts but hooks you and i just could not put it down…I loved it!!!!

Love all the twist and turns that happen in this book. Bella and Drake are beautiful and hot together. Their ending is beautiful.
Yes, yes and yes!
This book was outstanding. Fan-damn-tastic. Action packed. High heat level. A total page turner.
I couldn’t read this book fast enough. I absolutely loved that Nicole mentioned Gabe from Enguard (Still Not into You) and Hearts Edge (No Perfect Hero) into the storyline. If you don’t know what I am talking about, well then, you need to go read those books as well.
An amazing story about a grandfather’s love strong enough to protect his granddaughter even after he has passed away and the healing of two families. This story will leave with tears in parts of the book.
Annabelle “Bella” Reed lost her Gramps but had no idea what was in store for her. Drake Larkin had demons to slay so he promised Jonah Reed he would protect his granddaughter. The conflict in both characters can be felt as you read. Such an excellent book Kudos to Nicole Snow
Hands down, one of the best books I have ever read.
Every emotion ya’ll.
I had a physical to every emotion.
I laughed up a storm.
I cursed out a few characters.
I squealed my head off.
I nearly melted from the steam coming from my kindle.
And i cried.
If you have seen my “perfect” book reviews before, you know these things qualify this book as a perfect book.
I would highly HIGHLY recommend.
Happy reading!
P.s. Everyone shoukd have an Edison in their life.

This story is fantastic! The suspense of never knowing what will happen next, which secret will be out, and how much drama will be involved with this couple keeps the pages turning.

What will happen he real emotions become involved will they get a hEA
This book features Bella and Drake. This extremely well written story is mostly about the love a grandfather has for his granddaughter. It’s also about greed, misunderstandings on a bone- deep level, justice, family and love. Bella started out not so much naïve but more uninformed. There were so many secrets and Drake was the keeper of many of them. To trust or not to trust?There’s no denying the chemistry between these two though. The story her dad told about her mother was heartbreaking. It definitely sheds a little light on her mother’s behavior. I loved the post it notes Jonah left everywhere. It was as if he knew the exact moment his words of encouragement would be needed.
Brilliant story line with totally awesome characters! There was a whole lot going on and the story had such smooth flow. I can’t wait for the next book.
Nicole Snow has long been a trusted author for good, solid romance novels with strong characters and great plots. But she’s outdone herself with this one. Sometimes a combination of factors comes along to truly make something greater than the sum of its parts. That’s the case with this magnificent story. “Accidental Knight” takes a strong, beautiful, intelligent woman with some self-doubt issues and introduces her to an unforgettably inked pure alpha male with eyes the color of the prairie sky and a raggedy heart that’s suffered too many storms. As interesting as these two are, they’re not alone in this amazing tale. They share the spotlight with a selfish shrew of a mother, a spineless father, some really despicable people who aren’t what they say seem to be, and a wizard of a horse. Awesome.
From the first page, I found I was totally caught up in the story of Bella and her relationship with her late Grandfather. He was a man full of wisdom, wit, and most especially, love for Bella. He was her North Star–the one true point in her life that she could always depend on (other than a certain unbelievable horse). But with him gone, it’s hard to know who to trust… who to listen to… who she should believe about all this craziness that’s going on. Her parents want her Grandfather’s money, some slimeball from a rival oil company wants to buy his company, and this raggedy-butt of a cowboy, well… she can only guess what he wants.
The dynamics in this book were riveting. These people. This story line. This crazy romance! Drew and Bella had such an intensity I wasn’t sure I would survive their change from slow burn to convection oven. But one thing I knew for sure was that these two were definitely made for each other. Like thunder and lightning. Like prairie nights and starry skies. Like spring grass and new foals.
Gorgeous story full of love, healing, and growth. Packed with excellent characters, raw emotiion, and wit. All of this is surrounded by superior writing. Simply put, I highly recommend this captivating story.
I received an ARC of this book, and oh my goodness, it was amazing. I’ve read several accidental marriage books before, but this one was so different from the others. Bella Reed’s life is left in a tailspin when her grandfather, Jonah, does – leaving her with his amazing ranch, the coolest horse ever, a multimillion dollar oil empire, and…a husband. The twists and turns in this book kept me reading it at all hours of the day and night; it was one of the most unpredictable books I’ve read recently, and I loved every moment of it.
Bella and Drake are an incredible pair. Their immediate and undeniable chemistry is evident from the moment they meet, and it just keeps building into this firestorm of passion, love, regret, heartache, and finally, healing. I think my only regret is that I didn’t get to actually “meet” Jonah, but I did get to meet Edison – who is probably my favorite part of the whole book!
I absolutely recommend this book. The suspense, the chemistry, the history, the entire storyline…it is all, in one word, fantastic.
I’m having a difficult time writing this review as I typically love this author’s books, but I couldn’t connect with the characters. I didn’t feel the romantic spark between them although they certainly had the lust. Boy, can this author put a fire in your kindle! I actually preferred the revenge aspect better. Loved Edison!

This was so freaking good! I laughed and I cried. Bella’s beloved Gramps has passed away and she’s come home for the funeral. Then things get interesting when she finds out that he left her everything. Including his old Army buddy companion, Drake. When she meets him, she finds out that there’s nothing old about him. He’s hot! It doesn’t take long before she finds out that he’s also her new husband. What?! There’s danger and big arguments and all kinds of excitement in this book. But I want to warn you that when you meet Edison, you are going to want to take him home with you. He’s a horse that worships the ground Bella walks on and he’s got a genius IQ. There were several times in here that I had to wipe tears but it’s all good in the end. I can’t stop thinking about how much I enjoyed reading this book. So, I will highly recommend you going and getting it so that you can enjoy it, too.
OMG – I loved the characters especially Houdini Edison, the horse! This book is filled with a lot of everything from drama, action, suspense, betrayal and romance which makes it a page-turner. This story is about Drake and Bella and of course Grandpa Reed.
Drake comes to work with Grandpa Reed in a time of his life that he needed it the most and Grandpa saw more than a helping hand in him. With everything he learned from him, Grandpa decided to leave a clause in his will marrying both Bella and Drake as he knew she would need the help especially from her parents. What money does to people is terrible, but Drake makes sure to be knight when she least expects it, even though she wasn’t happy to find out she was tricked into the marriage. I will not give it away, but there is a lot in this book.

This is an edge of your seat read in my book. The story flows so well, the character were just amazing. It is quite interesting how money can be helpful and harmful in a family and Bella’s family takes the cake. An unexpected fortune, husband and protector, in the end wonderful life windfalls that complete her life and that of Drake. Was a read I could not put down.

As wonderful as I found the characters the horse had to be my favourite thing about this book… I fell totally in love but back to the actual human characters. Drake was outstanding, the strong and silent type who just melted my… heart! He had become so much more than just an employee to Bella’s grandfather and now that he had passed he took his role as protector to Bella very seriously indeed and I just loved how their friendship grew and expanded and maybe, just maybe, Drake isn’t quite as grumpy and taciturn as he first appears. As the past comes to light, secrets are revealed and intrigue and suspense soon follow. I found this book impossible to put down and it captured my heart and mind.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
I really enjoyed Bella & Drake’s Story. The chemistry that they have together is off the charts. Really an amazing story that will have you hooked from the start.
I always enjoy Nicole Snow’s books and this one is no exception, as a matter of fact, I think “Accidental Knight” has now become my favorite to date. The storyline where the relationship between a grand-daughter and grandfather has the ability to completely change the course of a history. It’s both heart breaking and heart warming to say the least. Characters, each beautifully flawed, come together in the mist of tragedy, mystery, and attraction. These are the emotional elements that make her romances touch my heart. And then let’s not forget all the twists and turns as the plot continues to unfold. Oh, and please, don’t let me forget Edison who has a way of stealing the show. Definitely one that kept me turning pages until it was finished. I received a copy of this ARC and am voluntarily giving my honest review.
Accidental?
Hmm.
I don’t know how accidental all of the incidents between the coy Bella and, the I need a bucket of ice water stat Drake!
What I do know is-My fellow romance enthusiasts – this is not the same novels we used to sneak from our mothers. Nuh-uh- this is a twisted, dark, sweet and witty journey that seductively captured my heart and mind as they battled the hot as sin connection they shared, boundless opposition, secrets, family and their stubborn minds.
Flaming hot scenes that would melt icebergs, intense drama, blending seamlessly with suspenseful and evilness Ms. Snow is a master of villains and good guys matchups with the female leading the show!
What a freaking spectacular story!
I was so sad to see this one end!
A New MUST read from Nicole Snow!!
Wow, absolutely fantastic and quite the page-turner! This story hooked me from the beginning and kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. It is well written with a well-developed plot and moves along at a brisk pace. The nefarious acts and plots, suspense, action, witty and colourful banter, and humour kept my heart racing in anticipation of what to expect next. The characters – Drake and Bella – are amazing, strong, and perfect together; their chemistry is potent and off the charts; the sex scenes are well written and HOT! The secondary characters including the magnificent horse Edison adds to the high level of excitement. This book is guaranteed to knock your socks off; it could not have been better in my opinion. Definitely recommended!
