I had taken a hiatus from reading any of J.L. books for some time now, although I would still collect them (because I collect her works) I rarely ever actually READ them anymore. I was so pleased to read this one and loved the story of the 2 twins it was comical at moments, sensual confrontations between Chad and Marian, a loving relationship between Chad and his father, and the Aunt who has spirit and a chance at finding love in her latter years. I don't know why Amazon.com doesn't give you a real good description of the plot but I will try. The Story is about 2 twins both gorgeous. One of the twins (Mandy) is spoiled and down-right Awful the other (Marian)is not she hides her beauty so that the other twin doesn't get jealous. You see Mandy has a history of sabotaging Marian's love interest, then she follows it up with crapping on the fellow in the end and leaving them. So Marian puts on this disguise to hide her beauty so that no one will be interested in her, and no one will get their feelings hurt. At the beggining of the story you find out that the girls father has died and they have to go and live with their Aunt, who they have not seen since being toddlers, out in Texas. Chad is the son of the Rancher who owns a HUGE spread near the Aunts but he is working over at her Ranch to help her out (anymore information on that part and I would be telling to much of the story) needless to say Marian is attracted to Chad and he to her, although how they get to this part is through misconceptions and spontaneous actions :) There were parts that I chuckled and it kept me engaged, which when it comes to the Romance novels these days, is all that I ask. In fact it kind of reminded me of a old Jude Deveraux style or even Julie Garwood. I didn't give it 5 stars because of the ending it wasn't plausible for me, it didn't quite add up.

I swear during this book all I wanted to do is smack the main man in the book! Sometimes they just don't get what is right in front of them...LOL! This book has a turn at the end that is more than unexpected, but simply leaves you an awe! I don't want to give it away, but this one is good!
