Serena and Meg Donovan are identical twins returning from a six-year exile after Serena's involvement in a scandalous relationship with Jonathan Dane, the Earl of Stratford, a man considered to be above her station. Meg drowns after a tragic accident aboard ship, and their mother decides to have Serena assume Meg's identity. That move will allow Serena to marry Meg's fiancé and save the family from destitution. Serena meets Jonathan when returning to London for her wedding. He immediately recognizes her, and most of the book revolves around their unresolved attraction.
VERDICT Abby Craden's excellent, polished, and clear narration enhances the listener's enjoyment of this historical romance. Recommended for romance fans. ["With beautifully rendered characters, lush sensuality, and a riveting story line, this well-told tale puts a refreshing spin on both the hidden identity and classic reunion plots," read the review of the Grand Central pb, LJ 8/12.—Ed.]
