ABOUT THIS BOOK Twenty-nine-year-old Lindsey Rose has, for as long as she can remember, lived in the shadow of her ravishingly beautiful fraternal twin sister, Alex. Determined to get noticed, Lindsey is finally on the cusp of being named VP creative director of an elite New York advertising agency, after years of eighty-plus-hour weeks, migraines, and profound loneliness.
But during the course of one devastating night, Lindsey’s carefully constructed life implodes. Humiliated, she flees the glitter of Manhattan and retreats to the time warp of her parents’ Maryland home. As her sister plans her lavish wedding to her Prince Charming, Lindsey struggles to maintain her identity as the smart, responsible twin while she furtively tries to piece her career back together. But things get more complicated when a long-held family secret is unleashed that forces both sisters to reconsider who they are and who they are meant to be.
WHAT DOUBLE UP BOOKS SAYS I really enjoyed reading this book! I can easily see this making my list of best books I've read in 2010. It's laugh-out-loud funny, warm, and thought provoking. I especially liked that the story was told from Lindsey's perspective in the first person and I really enjoyed meeting her family - her twin sister, mom and dad. But, what I liked the best is that the plot is completely unpredictable - it held me right until the last page. To see my video review of this book, visit our YouTube channel. It was our book of the month selection for March 2010.Availability: Usually ships within 48 hours.
