Thanks to NetGalley and to Entangled Publishing LLC for sending me an e-galley of this book in exchange for an honest review!
Owen just about hit the jackpot when he found a craigslist ad selling beautiful wood furniture for cheap, it means a big profit after cleaning up and selling the furniture at his woodworking shop. He's given the key to the apartment and is told to take what he wants, but gets sidetracked by the craftsmanship on the bed then ends up falling asleep after trying it out.
Rose is sneaking back to the once shared apartment a couple weeks after she broke off her engagement. A woman can put up with a lot, but when she found her fiance Jason in bed with another woman it was over. She could live with a lot of the furniture she contributed to the apartment, but she had to get her grandmother's antique bed, even if she had no idea how she was going to fit it into her new smaller apartment.
I found the set up of the story more enjoyable than most of the novella's I've read. After Rose finds Owen in her bed and startles him awake, he breaks the bed. We learn more about Owen, that he owns a small woodworking store with his sick father and Rose's ex fiance is the head of an IKEA inspired furniture company called CUBE. Rose also just so happens to be on the advertising department and she's working on the ads meant to crush their small business competition.
The flirtation and the banter that begins is a little lackluster, but I felt that it was possibly due to the fact that Rose was more of a good girl and we later learn that Owen hasn't had too many dates after taking the lead at his family business.
As far as chemistry goes I could feel it, even if the interaction at times felt a little stunted, when they finally started to get closer you could tell these two characters really cared about each other.
That said the final conflict of the book was a bit meh. I still enjoyed reading it and I felt that the issues that they had were easily solved, it didn't feel like one character had to bend over backwards to make the other happy. I've found that some romance novel resolutions end up feeling a bit convoluted, but this fit the story and the characters perfectly.
It's a quick and steamy read, not overly graphic. A nice middle ground.

Unfortunately, despite the excellent premise this one fell flat for me. I liked the meet cute, with Rose finding Owen, furniture maker/restorer, sleeping in her bed, the one her dastardly ex is trying to sell under her nose, but the conflict about him being a struggling, independent craftsman versus Rose being an office drone to an IKEA-esque company didn't really work for me. I hated that Owen embarrassed Rose at her work gala after she explicitly told him not to confront her cheating ex. Boundaries?
Both Rose and Owen had money struggles and I was always feeling worried about Rose. Yes, she works at Owen's "enemy" but she does also need to worry about her bills, her future, and shoot, health insurance. I'm glad it all worked out in the end, but me thinking about these things took me out of the story and I felt the ending was too neatly and perfectly wrapped up.
Also, if you find sex toys, even if it is just ropes/restraints, used by your ex with people other than yourself, wouldn't you throw them away? I didn't like that Owen introduced Rose to uber-light kink with restraints they found hidden in her bed, by her cheating ex.
I've enjoyed some of the other books in this series, this one just didn't quite work for me.
Thank you to the publisher for the ARC.

Not much plot, not that hot. Too much use of the f-bomb. The author seems to find it sexy. I don't

Rose moved out and ended things after finding out her fiancé was cheating on her. Now she’s going back to the apartment they used to share to get her stuff - especially her bed that she had inherited from her grandmother. Only when she gets there she’s surprised to find a hot guy sleeping in her bed.
Owen is a furniture maker who also restores and sells pieces he finds on Craigslist. When he saw the ad Rose’s ex placed - he jumped at the chance to buy the incredible bed. And when he laid down for a second just to test it out and rested his eyes for just a second, he didn’t expect to fall asleep and wake to an angry woman.
Super cute setup right? I really enjoyed the romance between Owen and Rose. However the side story about their jobs really didn’t work for me and a major conflict at a work event didn’t feel true to the characters for me. I appreciated the way they talked things through in the end.
Thank you to Entangled and Netgalley for the chance to read and review this book.

Rose returns to the apartment she once shared with her ex-fiance to pick up the furniture her Grandmother left her. What she finds is a sexy stranger asleep in her bed.
Owen restores furniture and crafts custom furniture as well. He was there to buy her pieces from her ex. Rose works for a company that plans on crushes small businesses like his.
Owen is attracted to Rose but can't stay away from her, even with knowing that she works for the competition.
Owen and Rose are pretty great together. Their chemistry was great.
I'm looking forward to reading more books from this author and the other books in this series

This book was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Entangled: Brazen!
Wrong Bed, Right Man is the third book in the Accidental Love series and tells the story of Rose and Owen. Even though this is the third book in the series, it can be read as a standalone.
It’s been a while since I read the second book in the Accidental Love series but I remember really liking that one so when I got the opportunity to read and review this book, I couldn’t say no! Luckily for me, every book can be read as a standalone, so I had no problems at all. When I started Wrong Bed, Right Man, I couldn’t stop reading. It was so addictive!
Wrong Bed, Right Man tells the story of Rose and Owen, they’re kind of enemies since Rose works for a company that is destroying Owen’s business, but they can’t help falling for each other. I really liked both characters because they were perfect for each other and I loved reading about them.
I really like that this book isn’t just about the romance, but also about loving your job and fighting for your job. I really liked Wrong Bed, Right Man and I cannot wait to read more books by Rebecca Brooks!l

I enjoyed the characters and their storylines. However, I feel like more could’ve been written about the rivalry at their jobs. There was definitely more of a story there that could have been explored more than the physical relationship between Rose and Owen
