I just don't understand why did Miranda date a man who didn't really love her. Because it's only a matter of time that he will turn away from her. But that is the spark of the story. I think the romance fiction reader will love it. Great review.

Twins are consistently an intriguing subject, particularly, taking everything into account. They're normally so close. I can barely comprehend how twisting that was Miranda. They're indistinguishable twins, right? Seems like a decent book notwithstanding a few linguistic issues.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?
17 If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.

Good review. I find the book quite captivating considering it captures a topic that greatly affects teenagers today,mental health. The fact that it does not contain sex scenes which is found in most of the romance books nowadays is a good thing. Would highly recommend for people to read it.

Hmm sort of happy Miranda didn't end up this guy. I just can't get over how someone asks to date your twi while you are still dating. Crazy.

The story teaches, speaking up to the one you have a strong feeling of love. Love is never kept in a vacuum it is meant to live with someone. Miranda's delay in opening up to Roger led to her traumatic state. Its a great book of ĺove!

The sample made me want to read more! I wonder if Miranda finds a way to get together with Roger again, and if the dynamics of the relationship between the twin sisters, Miranda and Cindy will change. I hope Shawn is a prominent character of the story and not just a side one, I would like to see how his friendship with Miranda influences the plot.

This is such an emotional book. I understand how hurt Miranda must have felt but there isn't anything that could have been done. She wasn't just reciprocated with the same amount of affection she gave. I admire her comportment and decision to move away from the city, for her, Roger and Cindy.

Nice review here.

I'm not a fan of the romance genre. But I'm sure fans of this genre will love this book because Miranda is a courageous person — a character most readers will admire.

I like that this book left out the erotic part of a romantic novel. It will make the readers to focus on the story without detailed sex scenes and at the same time makes the book suitable for all age grade.
