Abbey Martin is being sexually harassed by her boss. She quits her job because of his advances. As she drives away in tears, she has a car accident with a handsome man. The accident results in a broken ankle. Feeling remorse for the accident, Abbey offers to be the man’s chauffeur for the next few weeks.Little does she know that this man, Bruce, is the CEO that just bought out her company. As she drives him to business meetings, she is thrown back into the corporate games she just left.Accidental Meeting was available for free as a Kindle. It was advertised as a romantic comedy. Maybe it’s me, but I didn’t chuckle at anything in the entire book. It wasn’t that funny, and it wasn’t that romantic, either. They didn’t even kiss, much less say “I love you.”Reading was difficult in places when words were left out of the sentence. The plot is believable, and moves along at a steady pace. It uses a steady point of view and the writing style was good. It was an enjoyable read that took about four hours to complete. It was a nice story, but not one that made your heart race. When I read accidental meeting I thought they would meet accidently not that they would meet in an accident, especially one where they were involved. Abbey believes in God and is a good Christian. The whole 72 pages were about God and how you should treat other people. Not my favorite theme but it was delivered in a good way to me and even made me think what kind of Christian I am. Even in the story I think the author was trying to prove what they say about God and the plans He has for us. Abbey gets fired/quits her job after she refuses to have sex with her boss. On her way home she hits another car. Bruce is her victim. The car crush leaves both intact but Abbey falls all over him causing him to hurt his ankle. As a good Christian Abbey volunteers to help him until he gets better. And the question is: what are God’s plans for Bruce and Abbey? Because Bruce and Abbey might not be able to leave each other when Bruce completely heals.
