There is of course the knowledge that Fabio has a shadow author helping out with his novels. You will enjoy the plot twist and the suprise turn that the story takes. If you are a Fabio admirer you will enjoy this book. What the heck--you will enjoy this even if you do not know who Fabio is. He has the ideas and the shadow author has turned this book into a keeper. You will read this again

With all the reading I do, somehow I read this book where identical twin brothers were mistaken for each other and the very next book I read was a story about identical twin sisters who were mistaken for each other (Express Male by Elizabeth Bevarly). I was a bit dismayed when I read how much Lexi hated Yale and yet she so quickly ended up in bed with him. Okay, it wasn't really him, but she THOUGHT it was him. And as soon as Lexi discovered it was in fact Emmett, she was cool with that too. To my way of thinking, the fact that to Lexi these two brothers were so totally interchangable (if Emmett's dead, I'll sleep with Yale... oops, looks like this isn't Yale at all so I'll sleep with Emmett) made her a very shallow character. Her thinking seemed to be, "I'll just be with whichever brother wasn't killed." Hmmmm, how flattering to the man in her life! But it did not seem to bother Emmett. One would think that he would have some negative thoughts about "his" girl so readily going to bed with a man she thought was his brother but it did not appear to disturb him at all! Maybe Fabio DID write this for surely an accomplished author would have given the characters a bit more dimension and a bit more, well, character!

I cannot believe that someone actually gave this book 4 stars. Shadow writer or not, the writing was incredibly bad and made the convoluted plot even worse. There were too many characters, the hero has nothing going for him and the heroine has no backbone. This is my first Fabio book and I have to say it will probably be my last.
