Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Mid-life crisis
Review: Back Cover description: In bed with her husband...? Gerard Woodward was the husband Leah had dreamed of--handsome, powerful and wealthy. Until she overheard something that made her realize he'd ruthlessly seduced her into marriage for his own ends. She decided to go... Six months later the fugitive bride comes face-to-face with her husband once more. Well, he looks like he husband, he makes love like her husband...but he claims he's her husband's twin brother!

This story got 2 stars because I agree with the reviewer from Seattle--this heroine is dense. Leah can't figure out that if she hasn't seen her husband for 6 months, the guy just might have had an accident? The story might have been better if Leah realized this and just played along to see what happens. Sort of 'cat playing with mouse' plot--how far will the hero go to regain his love. Not a bad story, just frustrating.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: uhhhh
Review: This book isn't bad. It is fast paced and keeps your interest. The plot is the heroine leaves her husband when she overhears him saying he doesn't really love her and only married her as a convenience. A few months later she bumps into a man who looks just like her husband, only he says he's her husbands twin. They begina steamy affair and eventually she finds out the man really is her husband and he has no twin. This kind of makes me think the heroine is a complete idiot. For one thing, the hero never mentions that he has a twin. For another, how can the heroine who has been married to the guy, been intimate with him, not realize it is the same man? I thought this made the heroine seem really dense.
