Every action has a consequence, and Claire Ward knows it. And yet, even knowing that her decision to swap places with her identical twin sister, Lia, for a night could be disastrous, she still does it. Why? Because it will give her an evening with the man she’s been crushing on for years, Lia’s best friend, Finn. Miss Straight A Student has thought through all the angles, and knows the risk is worth it. And everything would have been fine, if Finn had been the one to show up at her door. But it wasn’t. Bauer Davis— Finn’s half brother and his exact opposite in just about every definable category is the one waiting for her instead. A professional snowboarder, Bauer is covered in ink, full of attitude, and has a chip on his shoulder the size of Mt. Olympus. The kind of bad boy that Claire has never been attracted to before. Now the good girl is with the wrong brother for a night, and when the consequence is that they have to pretend to be together for an event, it’s nothing she could have predicted. But maybe, just maybe, what makes Bauer so bad, is exactly what Claire needs.

We often think about what we want and not what we may need. Because what we may need is oftentimes scarier than what we want.
Every time I think I can’t love the next Karla Sorensen book more than the last I’m proven wrong. And Bauer and Claire were no exception. Claire Ward had her life planned out and was going to take a risk. And that risk meant finally getting some time with her twin sister’s best friend and her long time crush, even if that meant pretending to be her twin for a night. But instead she opened the door to his rebel, bad boy older brother and she never expected to need him.
Bauer Davis figures one night with his disapproving stepmother and his brother’s best friend will be worth it if he can save his snowboarding career with a new sponsor. What he doesn’t expect is twin Ward girls switching places or the attraction he feels with Claire.
I adored the relationship build between Claire and Bauer. It really showcased their individuality and issues and wants. Their understanding of each other and their drives made them such an excellent couple.
And while I know they’ll be challenged soon enough, I’m going to let them be my favorite Sorensen couple for now.
