“the only coherent thought that comes to mind is how insulting it is that eyelashes like his were wasted on Satan’s Errand Boy”
What happens when your twin sister’s wedding ends with all attendees in the hospital with food poisoning, except for you and the best man you hate? The two of you go off on their Hawaii honeymoon of course! Once there you have to pretend to be your twin sister and married to your new brother-in-law. I’m sure everything will be fine. Oh, wait! There’s your new boss and his wife and now he thinks you’re married. As does your new ‘husband’s’ ex when she shows up. Somehow Hawaii feels like Minneapolis 2.0.
I liked this one. I thought the twin aspect was fun. A huge, close knit family always makes for story. No spoilers, but one of the main characters was a real ass, but the revenge scene was perfection. Loyalty to siblings caused many of the problems, which felt pretty true to life.
A definite beach read, or if you’re like me stuck in the frozen tundra for much of the next week, it’s a perfect escape.
