5 of 5 starsMs. Bennett is a talented author and with this one sentence "People see what you want them to see or what they want to see." she sets up the unique idea behind the story. Cal, Earl of Carlyle and Adam Hardwick are the best of friends, only Adam is not really Adam, but his twin Ophelia "Phee" Hardwick. Ms. Bennett pulls off one of the best plot twists I've read in a while. To escape her evil uncle who wants to marry her off, Phee takes on the persona of her dead twin and eventually is hired by Cal. She secretly loves him, but he's clueless to her real identity and so it goes on for more than 2 years.
Without revealing too many other secrets from the book, I loved all the witty banter between Cal and "Adam." It was refreshing to read a story without the insta-love trope. It was so interesting to see how people do only see what you want them to see. I loved this book and can't wait to read Emma's story.
I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
