Title: The Bad Twin
Series: n/a
Stand Alone Title: yes
Author: Avery Scott
Genre: Romance
Blurb: Being the good twin isn’t all it’s
cracked up to be. Abby Levesque knows that better than anyone. While her sister
drifts through life carefree, Abby’s left to clean up her messes. The latest
mess? Hudson Quinn— the hot, angry billionaire on her doorstep demanding she
accompany him to Paris. He’s obviously mistaken her for her twin, Gabby, who
happens to be his assistant. Too bad Gabby is nowhere to be found. If Abby
wants to fix her sister’s latest blunder, she’ll have to pretend to be someone
else for two weeks—preferably someone who isn’t wildly attracted to her
mercurial boss…
As far as Hudson’s concerned, his sexy-but-flaky new personal assistant is just
another in a long line of terrible decisions and failures in his life. But he’s
working on the deal of a lifetime—a deal that could change everything for
him—and he needs her help to close it. The last thing he ever expected was to
connect with her on a soul-deep level.
Falling in love wasn’t part of the job, and when Hudson finds out who she
really is, Abby’s terrified he’ll never forgive her. With a billion dollar
deal—and both their hearts—on the line, can Abby convince Hudson she’s the
right twin for him?
Favorite quote(s): “You know what to do if you miss me too much.”
“Put on a mini skirt and smoke weed in front of a mirror?”
Thoughts: I liked this book quite a bit. Abby is the responsible sister…she gets wrapped up in pretending to be her sister because they need her sister’s income and she doesn’t want her sister to lose her job. She didn’t plan to fall for her sister’s boss. From there, it becomes a sweet romance – on in which you wind up dreading when Hudson finds out the truth.
I enjoyed Abby’s character, but didn’t really care for her twin…typically irresponsible, mean, and very selfish. Hudson I didn’t really like too much at first either, but it’s the moments between him and Abby when they are just enjoying things that made me really like the book. I also liked that Abby just didn’t slip seamlessly into Gabby’s role…there were some definite bumps in the road.
Overall, it comes together to make a really good romance that you enjoy reading.
