They told her she married a prince. Too bad she couldn’t remember the wedding…or anything else. Will her memories return in time to save her marriage or was it doomed from the beginning?When Prince Edward of Calais received a note implicating his wife in an affair, he was furious. He’d only been married to Annette for three weeks, but she’d distanced herself from him almost as soon as they … distanced herself from him almost as soon as they returned from their honeymoon.
Annette woke up disoriented, not knowing who she was or what happened to her. To make matters worse, someone shot her aunt and might be after her as well. Her relationship with Prince Edward seemed strained at best. After receiving a couple of threatening notes, she didn’t know who she could trust.
She knew she was drawn to Edward—they clearly had chemistry—but he kept her at arm’s distance. He was definitely hiding something.
Edward and Annette couldn’t fight the pull they had to each other, but Edward had to decide if he could forgive Annette, and she had to determine if she could trust him. In a world where everything was not as it seemed, will love prevail or will their marriage go down in a ball of flames?
This is a Christian romance with a themes of redemption and Bible references.

The Prince’s Bewildered Bride is the newest book written by Evangeline Kelly. It’s one of those books that is more complex that the average romance book. It has romance, sibling rivalry, jealous exes, mother-in-law problems, intrigue and attempted murder; which is complicated by the Bride’s amnesia. It didn’t take long to get immersed into the story. It was amazing to watch the characters’ growth as the story unfolded. Being an Evangeline Kelly book, there is a HEA ending. I’ve read and own all of Evangeline Kelly’s books. She is one of my favorite Christian authors. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading a great romance with a bit of suspense added to it.
I loved this story so much!
It is a great mystery and a great romance which to be honest you don’t see a lot of books being great at both.
I loved that even though this story was about a married couple it didn’t get inappropriate or anything.
This was a great clean romance and I couldn’t even believe that all there was was kissing!
I know this has nothing to do with the story but I absolutely love the cover!!!!
Trigger Warning and Spoiler: Leo is obsessed with Annette and a crazy person. He threatens her to come with him using a gun and drugs. She does get drugged but ends up being fine.
This review is my honest opinion. I am NOT related to the author nor do I know the author personally. I also did NOT receive a free copy of this book in exchange for writing a review.
I’m not huge on royalty romances. I am very much a realistic-fiction-only gal. Buuuut I’d been hearing so many good things about Evangeline Kelly, and I wanted to find out what her books are like. I chose this one because I love bride books. I was hooked on the first chapter. I loved the setting, fake kingdom and all, the intrigue kept me reading late, and the sweet, gentle chemistry between a struggling married couple along with themes of faith restored was beautiful. I highly recommend this book and author. I was up late last night reading another book by her, and I can’t wait to start the next one.
I liked this book a lot. I like the plot & the characters. Ms. Kelly is a good writer.
What a tangled web. To me this is very intense and a very dramatic suspense story with some christian elements. Their faith struggle is realistic but I think that is really secondary to all the drama surrounding the couple. Trust is a huge issue in all relationships what I love about the prince is not only his love for his wife but his commitment to her. Very emotional, I felt sorry for both of them as they struggle with themselves and the mystery of who’s deceiving who. In spite of all unanswered questions and doubt, this accident gives this couple a second chance to trust in their love for one another, it’s not easy but in the end it’s worth it. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation from the author.
An Amazing Book, with many twists!
Prince Edward of Calais and Annette are married, but she doesn’t remember anything, after her aunt being shot. Confusion reigns, between the two of them, and things don’t seem right, but it is hard to figure out what is the truth. It is a beautiful story, and romance is woven through, along with Christian principles. I highly recommend this book!
This was an amazing book. I loved the story. Annette lost her memory, but she feels drawn and safe when she is around Prince Edward. Annette is confused about how distant Edward is towards her, but can’t figure out why. Edward is having a hard time believing Annette has memory loss, especially after he was given a note that implied that Annette was having an affair, three weeks after their wedding. I enjoyed the chemistry between Annette and Edward as they are pressing on without Annette’s memory of her past. I liked seeing how Annette dealt with the new things that she learns about her past. I love how she was able to become a different person without realizing it. The plot of the book has a mystery and suspense element to it that had me glued to the pages until the end. I loved the story of redemption and finding a way with God’s guidance. I recommend to those that love sweet romance, rediscovering love, and a little intrigue.
Evangeline Kelly has another winner!
She writes stories that take you in and keep you reading until the end.
I love Christian romances with a dash of intrigue.
This book hit the spot.
This was a fantastic clean romance about one woman’s struggle to remember memories she has lost and to find repentance and salvation from Heavenly Father, and a man who has no idea how to return to Heavenly Father’s fold. In the midst of possible infidelity, secrets, and danger Annette and Edward must learn to put their trust in God and each other in order to fix their damaged marriage and find the love and friendship they thought lost. The Prince’s Bewildered Bride was a fun loving story filled with danger, secrets, laughter, insecurities, forgiveness, trust, finding its never too late to make God a priority, family, and love. Evangeline Kelly has created another fantastic uplifting story about a loving Heavenly Father who is always ready to help carry out burdens if we would only ask. With wonderful characters readers will fall in love, readers won’t want to put this new book down.
“I voluntarily reviewed an ARC copy of this novel.”
When Prince Edward married Annette he had no idea that his marriage would be in tatters just a few weeks later. This is a Christian romantic mystery about love and redemption with a slightly old fashioned feel. It has some twists and turns to keep the reader guessing and moves along at a good pace. The Prince’s Bewildered Bride is a good book from a very talented author and I definitely recommend it.

The Prince’s Bewildered Bride is about a newly married bride to a Prince, but she doesn’t remember marrying him. She had an accident and got amnesia. The Prince thinks his new wife started seeing another man shortly after marrying him. Or, did she? This book has mystery and a beautiful story of redemption and a HEA. I really enjoyed this sweet and clean book.
*I was given a copy of this book by the author. This is my honest opinion.
I didn’t want the story to end, it was so good. There was intrigue, suspense, and betrayal, everything that makes a book worth reading. I highly recommend the Prince’s Bewildered Bride. If you love clean inspirational stories with a mystery to solve, you can’t go wrong with this one.
I don’t usually read suspenseful stories, but I’ve liked Ms. Kelly’s other works so I went ahead and read it.
It’s well done. The characters and situations were believable. The suspense was just right. The twists were amazing.
The Prince’s Bewildered Bride grabbed me on page one and did not let go. This is a modern time story that reminds me of many books in the Regency period. There was so much suspense, misdirection, jealous lovers or want-to-be lovers, amnesia, an aunt lying in a coma from a fall sustained when she was shot, a palace with a secret passage, and a mother who disappeared but whose body was never found. This is a suspenseful story of treachery, new love, and trust with the main characters learning they must surrender their lives to God. I was wrapped up in this book until I reached the end. I highly recommend it.
Wow, what a thrilling adventure!!! I absolutely loved this story by Evangeline Kelly!! From the mystery to the beautiful romance, I was totally engrossed from the very first chapter!!
I fell in LOVE with the main characters Annette and Edward. Their relationship was just so beautiful, and although they went through so many difficulties, they came out stronger together.
The plot was also incredible!! It had just the right amounts of suspense, mystery and romance. I particularly liked the mystery elements. The story was super interesting, and it really hooked me in. There was never a dull moment, and every chapter was well-written and enjoyable.
As always, the faith aspects were lovely to read.
I found the book riveting, and read it in a day!
I would highly recommend this novel!!
I received a copy of this novel from the publisher. This has not affected my review, which is my honest and unbiased opinion.
A wonderful mystery full of twist and turns. A great set of characters who keep you guessing at who is in on the mystery, I especially liked Annette who is different after her accident, a very humble and likable character. The author does a wonderful job of showing that even though you may have all the things of this world without God there will still be a void in life that needs filling. A beautiful story of romance and strength in love.
Was given a complimentary copy. All opinions are my own.
Image waking up and not knowing anyone around you. Then you realize you don’t know who you are.. They tell you you’re married to a prince and you live in a castle…say what???
Such is the life of Annette the beautiful but confused main character. To make matters worse she is told she loves another man and was cheating on her new husband. Annette can’t believe she’d do such a thing; especially to such a handsome man.
As always Evangeline Kelly brings her characters to life and weaves a wonderful story that will keep you reading to the very last word. You won’t want to put it down but then you get to the end wishing the story would go on and on. Definitely a 5 star book!
The Prince’s Bewildered Bride has it all: romance, betrayal, suspense, and mystery; and all of it is done well. There were so many things that I loved about this book: the relationship between the royal family and the people, the journey to faith, the forgiveness, the romantic dates of Edward and Annette and their taking part in celebrating with the people of Calais, and the HEA. I plan to read more of Evangeline Kelly’s work and would recommend this one to readers of clean/wholesome romance and Christian romance. I received an ARC. I chose to write a review to share my opinion of this excellent story.
This is one of my favorite books. I’ll admit I can be a skimmer – that’s what my daughter calls me because I don’t every single word. I know I have found a good book when I find myself reading every single word and really enjoying it. You will find a love story, intrigue, mystery, family, friends, in-laws and more. I highly recommend you read this one – I hesitate to say more because I don’t want to give away any spoilers – it’s that good. The characters both grow and the ending is awesome. I received a copy from the author. This is a book I will keep.
