Married at Midnight by Gerri Russell

I L.O.V.E. a married by mistake story so when I saw this on NetGalley and read the blurb, look at the cover! It screamed read me.

The start is a little like that Cameron Diaz classic film What Happens in Vegas, Elle Hawthorne wakes up in a Vegas hotel room after one too many tequilas to find she is in bed with her high school boyfriend, the one who broke her heart. Not only that but she has a shiny gold ring on her finger.

Connor Grayson is equally as shocked as Elle, but when his beloved grandmother is in hospital and bemoaning that she will die before her favourite grandson gets married he asks Elle to continue their deception for just a little longer.

So that's the book I wanted to read. Unfortunately there was also a quartet of elderly Elvis impersonators (who happened to be friends with Connor's grandmother) and Connor's grandmother was probably the character who led me to create the "irritating seniors" tag for my Goodreads books!

If you like books about hapless couples being led around by the nose by opinionated and scheming senior citizens then I think you will love this - it wasn't what I wanted.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
