Description from the publisher:
The twins had one rule. No one dates
both of them. However, what happens when the man comes along they're both
willing to break that rule for?
Will the rule be broken?
Aimee Harper just wants her car fixed. She doesn't need her sister's kind of help, the manipulation, the sexism, the way her sister uses her body to get whatever she wants. Aimee prefers her life simple, her peaceful existence, even if she doesn't have the adventures her sister has or meets the men her sister tends to wake up with on the weekend. Yet, to battle Karla's plans, Aimee needs to go on a date with Mitch Greenway but what's confusing to her is that he actually wants to go out with her and not her seductive sister. But what about their rule?
Karla Harper can't believe her sister still hasn't learned to play the game. There's a reason women have all the power; it's because men want what's between their legs. A wink here, a wiggle of the backside there, and soon men are panting to help you accomplish your dreams. Of course, that is, until Mitch Greenway steps into the picture. No matter what Karla throws at him, the dark, powerful man still wants her timid sister. Aimee's close to breaking the rule of the twins and Karla can't believe it.
Mitch Greenway has seen plenty of women such as Karla Harper, but quiet, shy Aimee draws his eye and grabs his attention. She doesn't want to run a game on him, but rather to just enjoy the moment without her sister's interference. He's heard about their rule, the rule that states that no man can date both sisters, and he knows that Karla believes since she's already slept with him that he won't go out with Aimee. However, Karla doesn't know him, and what's more, her sister is no longer playing by Karla's rules.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can’t say that this story is
about Aimee and Clint’s relationship from meet-cute to HEA. This is the first part of Aimee and Clint and
Mitch and Karla…. And Brad, Paul, Sandy, and so many others. This isn’t one romance. It is many relationships – family, friends,
work, and romance. There is phenomenal
character development and emotional exploration. This is sexy, steamy, fun, flirty, and not at
all serious.
The twins, Aimee and Karla are identical
in looks, but opposites in personality.
This is a reminder to anyone who has not know any real twins that they
are separate people.
Karla is a free-spirited wild child
who sees her sexuality as a commodity to be used for gain. I didn’t like her at the beginning of the book. She grew on me. As I learned more about why she felt as she
did, I understood. Isn’t that the way of
most people? If we understood why they
did the things they do, we would judge them less harshly. Her love for her sister was undeniable in the
end.
Aimee is the always sensible
sister. For many, especially Karla, that
would be spelled s-t-i-c-k-i-n-t-h-e-m-u-d.
She’s quiet, bookish, and hasn’t dated much. I had to laugh at the way that claws could
only come out when fighting with her sister (just like me with my sister) or
defending her man.
To me, the scenes of sisterly
fighting make me think this author must have a few siblings. We fight with family differently than with
anyone else – even that friend that is like a brother. The bond is different. We can fight with them and we will defend
them, stand with them against any foe. When
Bonnie, Clint’s soon-to-be-ex-wife, shows up and the sisters now have a common
enemy… well, let’s just say someone should be calling a priest for Last Rites, metaphorically
speaking.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC
via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
