A woman who loves her child-free life falling for a divorced dad?
What could go wrong?

It’s no accident Andie Werking’s life looks a lot like her handmade goods boutique, fun, stylish and sassy. At thirty-eight, she knows herself and what she loves: expensive coffee, starting work around lunchtime, and late nights reading while snuggling with her spoiled Corgis. Building her business, cultivating strong friendships, making her adorable bungalow a home, and digging into a progressive church has taken passion and perseverance, and she’s got plenty of both.

However, her aversion to babies, children, and everything babies-and-children related has left Andie single for far longer than she ever anticipated. That all changes when funny, kind and stupidly handsome Dr. Joe walks into her life, bringing his custody agreement and three spirited children with him.

Lisa Hodges needs to make a decision fast. Thanks to her dead husband’s gambling addiction, their savings is almost gone. In her early fifties with a large, waterfront home on Nantucket to support, Lisa hasn’t worked in over thirty years, has no in-demand skills and is virtually unemployable.

Her only options are to sell the house and move off-island, or, she could use her cooking and entertaining skills and turn her home into a bed and breakfast. She desperately needs it to succeed because she has four grown children with problems of their own and wants to stay close to them.

Her oldest daughter, Kate, has a fabulous career in Boston--working as a writer for a popular fashion magazine and engaged to a dangerously handsome, photographer, who none of them have met.

Falling for Your Best Friend's Twin is an adorable romcom that I read in one sitting! If you enjoy the best friend's brother trope and/or opposites attract trope then grab this one!

Rating: ★★★★
Release Date: October 11, 2020
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Series: Love Clichés #1
Pages: 290 pages
Format: Paperback. Source: Purchased.

There are a million and one reasons why I shouldn’t fall for my BFF’s twin... Too bad love isn’t reasonable.

Zane is my total opposite. He dates a steady string of women who are nothing like me. And there’s no way I would risk Zoey’s friendship over my teensy, tiny crush on her brother.

But when Zane hires me to help fix a glitch with his startup’s software, I run into two problems:
1. Someone on the inside seems to be sabotaging it.
2. Working with Zane every day sends my feelings into overdrive.

My master plan is to sniff out the rat, help Zane save the company, and get out while my heart is still intact. No biggie.

But somehow, I get roped into an investors’ spa trip. Which means spending a whole weekend with Zane and sharing a room with his date.
