Accidentally Engaged is Mary Carter’s second novel, and it stars Clair Ivars, a psychic and talented tarot card reader. Unfortunately her talents don’t go as far as being able to read her own future so it comes as a complete surprise when she finds herself engaged to wealthy vodka manufacturer Jack Heron, especially as she’s attracted to his business partner, Mike.
But who is Mike? And is Jack’s house really haunted? And is the family matriarch really as loopy as she seems?
I’m a big fan of supernatural chick lit and this one rang all the right bells for me. There’s a dreamlike quality to the whole story (which is neatly explained at the end) and all the characters are believable and likeable.
There are secrets galore in the Heron household and Mary Carter handles it all very nicely. This is another winner from Little Black Dress.
Rating: 4/5
