The Duplicate Bride

By Ginny Baird

Saying “I do” has never been this much fun in this charming new romance from New York Times bestselling author Ginny Baird.

Hope Webb can’t believe her twin sister’s latest request. Why would a bride-to-be ask for a twin-swap right before the pre-wedding festivities? Sure, it’s a “strictly business deal” sort of marriage, but bookworm—and carb-lover—Hope has serious doubts about her ability to convince anyone she’s a workaholic who loves a brisk, five-mile run at the crack of dawn…especially her twin sister’s fiancé.

Hotel magnate Brent Albright suspects something is off about his fiancée. Gone is the driven woman who shares similar career goals—and in her place is someone warm and funny, who charms his family and him. Sure, she doesn’t seem quite like herself, but that’s probably just nerves…

Now Hope finds herself in an impossible situation. Because she’s found herself smack-dab in the middle of a warm, tight-knit family she can’t help but adore and a groom who turns out to be entirely wonderful...for her.

And that’s when things start to get really complicated.

Reviews for The Duplicate Bride

[grgenius_1 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Talk about a case of mistaken identity, only the mistake was easy enough to make considering the circumstances. When you have identical twins, stepping in for one another is part of the game, I'd imagine...but what starts as a way of Hope helping out her sister Jackie, soon becomes something so much more DANGEROUS than a stand-in bridal week appearance or two. What's at stake? Only the greatest thing of all...their hearts...and I do mean ALL of them.

With its STUNNING cover and ridiculously ENTICING story, that'll keep you glued to the page from start to finish as you wonder just how things got to where they are and how on earth they could possibly survive the eventual fallout...this is one wedding you don't want to miss!

A fun, engaging, deception starts with one sister phoning her twin to persuade her to help her during a pre-wedding week at her prospective in-laws. Upon arrival, the in-laws mistake the sister for her twin who is actually the bride. The story continues through a series of occurrences that delay the actual bride from attending. The reader sees the twin sister go through a gamut of emotions attempting to keep the in-laws and the fiancé from discovering the sisters deception. This story grabs the attention of the reader with a funny, intense storyline and relational characters. I received an ARC for review. I would highly recommend this book for a great romantic read.

I can suspend my belief until the cows come home -but this plot went beyond my abilities. If I can not suspend my belief then I cannot enjoy the book...period! It is too bad because I was really looking forward to this novel. Thank goodness I am not out a lot of cash ($3.99 on Kindle at Amazon).This was a very clean book, I will give it that much. However, beyond that fact, I hated this story - I hated the plot, I hated the main female character's, I hated the angst (it was unbelievable) and most of all I hated the lying.I have read books where the women swap names for various reasons' and enjoyed them very much, but the fact that they were deceiving a perfectly nice family by doing this AND screwing up their own lives just ... well there are no words.I will NOT be recommending this book to anyone.
