Diary of an Accidental Wallflower

Romance Historical

Miss Clare Westmore is pretty, daughter of a viscount, and knows exactly what she wants in her second season, the next Duke of Harrington's proposal. But when she twists her ankle on the eve of Lady Austerley's annual ball, she has to stand in the wallflower line and watch her best friend dancing with her duke.

Daniel Merial is Lady Austerley's personal physician; he is not interested in society except to build more clients among the ton. As a favor to Lady Austerley, he accepts the invitation to the ball ,to watch over her if there were more heart attacks. As a physician Daniel immediately notices the unlikely wallflower Clare is in pain and immediately his clinical skills flares to life. Of course he is so tempted by his beautiful patient and can't stop thinking about her.

DIARY OF AN ACCIDENTAL WALLFLOWER is another well-written story with great characters by Jennifer Mcquiston, it is a refreshing and sweet romance of two people from two different worlds, One the rich daughter of a viscount, and the other physician son of a Gypsy horse trader.

At the beginning of DIARY OF AN ACCIDENTAL WALLFLOWER, Clare seems to be a simpering miss and snob, not really a likable heroine. But as she discovers herself and what is important in life she turns out to be an adorable, intelligent and lovable heroine. Daniel is a perfect, strong and amazing hero through the whole story. I really enjoyed reading this fantastic romantic story with the family secrets and the twists and turns in Clare's life.

The secondary characters were really interesting and fun, I hope they have their own stories. I absolutely enjoyed reading this sweet and fun book, Jennifer Mcquiston did (as always) a fantastic job in her first book in this new series. Thank you Jennifer Mcquiston.

SUMMARY

Pretty and popular, Miss Clare Westmore knows exactly what (or rather, who) she wants: the next Duke of Harrington. But when she twists her ankle on the eve of the Season’s most touted event, Clare is left standing in the wallflower line watching her best friend dance away with her duke.

Dr. Daniel Merial is tempted to deliver more than a diagnosis to London's most unlikely wallflower, but he doesn’t have time for distractions, even one so delectable. Besides, she's clearly got her sights on more promising prey. So why can’t he stop thinking about her?

All Clare wants to do is return to the dance floor. But as her former friends try to knock her permanently out of place, she realizes with horror she is falling for her doctor instead her duke. When her ankle finally heals and she faces her old life again, will she throw herself back into the game?

Or will her time in the wallflower line have given her a glimpse of who she was really meant to be?
