In this book we have Flint Calum, a hot Navy Seal, who happens to be over 6ft full of muscle and bravery.
Valerie wakes up with amnesia. She can’t remember her past 24 – 48 hrs. Why can’t she? She remembers most of her past, but the last day or so nothing. Is she married? Who is this man she’s now married to? She doesn’t recognize him at all! Why aren’t there any pictures of the wedding in the house? Is this really true?
Flint is protecting Valerie, even though she doesn’t remember anything herself. Flint knows she in danger. He feels that he must protect her. He needs to protect her.
Flint and Valerie do have an intense chemistry between them. They are drawn to each other, even though they really just met and have been thrust into each other’s lives.
The story went up and down for holding my interest the first half of the book. It constantly held my interest for the last forth of the book therefore it was really good. The reason for the 3.5 stars was because it wasn’t good for the whole book. I’ve read Nicole’s books before and loved them. This one just wasn’t for me.

This is a well written story and is Valarie and Flint’s story. Flint is acting as a fake husband in order to calm her when Valarie is found unconscious and wakes up with amnesia and terrified. This story is filled with deceit, twists, suspense, action, humour, passion and love, which all had me captivated throughout this addictive slow burn romance. I highly recommend for all.
An engaging slow burn romance storyline that enables both characters to let go of their past and build upon a fortifying future. This engaging fake marriage has intrigue, danger, trust, sizzling passion, love and amazing protective supportive characters. Its incredibly well written keeping me interested page after page too the perfect HEA. I loved this incredible ARC that I voluntarily read and reviewed as it beautifully portrays how the past doesn’t need to define you.
Valerie wakes up from an accident with amnesia. Flint is her handsome caretaker who pretends to be her husband to keep her safe. Will this former SEAL be able to protect her from some dangerous enemies who want her dead? Will a pretend marriage become a real love match?
“Accidental Shield” is an entertaining weekend read with a good plot and expressive dialogue. It is told in alternating POV with in depth character development. Flint is a reluctant hero mentally scarred by memories of people he couldn’t save. Valerie is feisty but questions her worth. They both have to deal with forgiving themselves for things that happened in their past, letting go and moving forward. This story is smart, with danger, suspense and a simmering attraction that builds to a well deserved HEA. Flint & Valerie are cute, hot and funny together!

I can not post spoilers! It is well worth your time! I am voluntarily leaving my review after reading an advance reader copy from the author.
WOW! I don’t even know how Ms. Snow manages to make such a great plot and make it believable for the reader. From the start you think you know what you are in for. But the story is so much more. Who wouldn’t want to accidentally find themselves with Flint? He’s all alpha and protective. Val is ready to combust with their chemistry. The story has fabulous twists and turns to go along with the heat level between these two. I loved reading Accidental Shield.

I was hooked from the very beginning and could not get enough. This suspenseful romance was awesome! Murder, mystery, danger, darkness, suspense, kidnapping, passion, and intrigue that make it very interesting and compelling to keep you glued to the pages of this fascinating story. Flint Calum, an ex-SEAL who dissolved and retired from his business—Damysus Security along with his buddy Dr. Cash Ivers, lives in Hawaii with his 12-year-old son. What would you do if you found a woman who was unconscious from a disastrous accident, or was it an accident? Only one person knows what happened the night that caused Valerie (Val) Gerard to have amnesia, but Val can’t remember the whole truth of that horrible night or her name. All she knows is that she wants everything to go back to normal, or what she thinks is normal. But when Flint, the hot and handsome man with sea glass blue eyes is telling her he is her husband, Val’s world shifts in ways she could never imagine. Did she get married to such a handsome man with the brightest blue eyes, strong, protective, and surprisingly understanding? Yet the crazy attraction they both have for each other with slow-burn chemistry, with the secrets they are keeping from each other seems impossible for them to be together. How far will Val go to find out the truth of her identity, and what is she willing to risk for the one person whom she loves? There are some terrible villains in this story and it is not all hearts and roses. This story is entertaining and fervent, with a dash of dreams coming true. 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. You won’t regret reading Accidental Shield!
Wow, wow, wow brilliant again. Another brilliant book by Nicole. Adored Flint and Valerie.
Loved Beverley and Bryce.
A steamy, heartwarming and action packed. Enjoyed every minute of it couldn’t put it down till I finished it.
Love all these books by Nicole.
Wow what a another hot read from this author. This author will have you feeling the holy hotness from the words that are rolling off the pages. This is a smoking alpha read that will have you all hot and steamy.
I really enjoyed this story. The characters were well developed and I liked them a lot.
Valerie doesn’t remember getting married. She doesn’t remember anything. Valerie doesn’t remember what led up to her losing her memory, but when she looks at Flint, she feels safe and protected.
Flint was a SEAL and is 6 foot something of hotness. He’s a superdad. He is taking care of Valerie and trying to help her feel secure so that she will get her memories back. But as he’s helping her, he is fighting what he feels for her.
Loved their happy ever after. Definitely recommend reading this book!

Nicole Snow has zeroed in on the gorgeously protective alpha male Adonis hero with true heart. She’s got these guys nailed. *sigh*
The melt-my-heart hero in this story, Flint, has everything a damsel in distress could possibly want or need. And then some. This man. He WILL give you all the feels, save your life, bring you a puppy, and cook your breakfast before the morning news is over. Can he be cloned? What I really love about the way Ms. Snow writes her heroes is that Flint feels like the real deal and still seems like someone the average person would want to hang around with–making him a true paradox. So often romance heroes can come across a bit one dimensional if not written well, but never in a Nicole Snow adventure. No, these guys are rock solid, unique, and deep.
All the characters in this story have great depth and dimension. Flint’s “damsel in distress,” Valerie, is actually a very intelligent woman with a lot to offer who’s just had a truck load of manure dumped on her a few times too many. But she’s no fool, and she’s got a great heart–along with an amazing cat. Several peripheral characters round out the cast adding more interest and a wealth of rich emotions, including Flint’s son, Bryson. You can tell a lot about a man by how his son is raised. Bryson is a treasure.
Thanks, Ms. Snow, for another amazing hero and another fantastic read. Your stories continue to be at the top of my TBR list for a reason: they never disappoint.
Accidental Shield by Nicole Snow is the story of Flint and Valerie.
Flint is a retired Navy Seal who co-owed a security company with his partners. Cash and Flint help to save Valerie after she was attacked and left for dead. Flint feels protective of her and ends up going along with the story that they are married. When Valerie wakes up she has amnesia but one thing she does know is something is going on. Flint is a single dad who is out to protect those he cares about which is quickly becoming Valerie. This book has you hooked in to the story in just a short time. For me I couldn’t put it down…loved it.
Previous reviewers have outlined the story which was pretty unique in itself. I loved the characters, a tender gentle giant, a former seal, his many macho supportive friends, the innocent beauty who has amnesia who steals the hero’s heart which was armour plated since his wife left him & their young son for a very short life of drugs. Their mutual attraction is off the charts sexy but when her life is once again in danger he rallies the troops to save her & her family. Highly recommended. I received an arc & this is my honest & voluntary review.
