I don't always read reviews but most of the time when I do, I tend to agree with the majority opinion. This time,  the majority must have read another book than the one I barely made it through. Or maybe they're hired by the author or publisher.This book was horrible. I should have never bought it once I couldn't get through the sample. But once again, it was the reviews that made me purchase it. This story was convoluted. There were entirely too many characters who played minor roles and even one who was mentioned repeatedly but never showed up. This story was supposed to be taking place in California and from my understanding, or lack thereof, everyone except the heroine was American. I read books frequently by British authors who can successfully write American English. This author kept getting mixed up. The American characters used British witticisms frequently. Who in America says 'arse'?!?!?! The editing was poor. There were too many times that verbs were not in the correct tense for me to overlook. And the plot was so asinine. How is it possible that these men who are twins but didn't know,  were so successful and powerful businessmen that no one had ever remarked upon their resemblance? One was in construction and the other was a hotel magnate. Realistically, they didn't have ANY of the same colleagues?!?!? It was a chance encounter in a restaurant that led to the discovery? Yeah right. Then there's the guy who was interested in the heroine but who had impregnated one of her closest friends. Wtf was the point of that???I love a good romance. I get escapism. This crap was unrealistic and totally not believable. I don't even care that there is a sequel. I hope the characters all get brain transplants. The author needs one too.
