Freaky Friday Regency Style!
While a variation on a known theme of twins causing double trouble, imagine if Jane Austen or Georgette Heyer took a spin at it. I loved every minute of this book and it was super fun and enjoyable. Excellent writing and superb narration. I wanted it to go on! I want a sequel!

Adventurous
This delightful story tells Cassandra’s story of a switch with her twin to get to know her grandfather. The situations in the story help the reader know who Cassandra really is and helps the story unfold neatly. Even with the confusion of the girls switching names and places, the author did a good job of helping the reader keep the two straight. This was a nice change from the usual regency romance. So if your looking for a sweet, clean, regency story with lovely characters this is the book for you.
The narrator reads at a good pace with great intonation for each character. Easy to listen to, nice accent!

Clean Regency; Identical twins switch places
Cassandra's Deception: 5 stars
Cassandra's tender heart longs to meet her grandfather and Belle, her identical twin, wants to enjoy society. They switch places thinking that it will be simple and they will both get what they want.
Cassandra has her work cut out for her; in personality she is almost the exact opposite of her twin and to deceive her grandfather, companion and Philip Raven is difficult and goes against her ideals of integrity and truth.
The romance in this delightful book is clean and the author takes the time needed to let the romance develop naturally.
The side characters are wonderful and believable and the protagonists are likable.
Narration: 5 stars
Julia Eve is an amazing voice actress with an arsenal of various voices at her disposal! Her acting is stellar and her timing, emotion and nuances are top-notch!

The great swap
Duplicity turns into love. I enjoyed the contrived plan of the scheming sisters to swap identities. I liked it even more when circumstances brought them all under on roof and grudgingly of one mindset. Sweet ending. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Twins!
Just how much mischief can a pair of grown twin ladies create? You will find out in this lovely story which has some of the most delightful characters I have read about in a long time.
The story itself is a clever one and moves along quite quickly with a bit of regency-style romancing and a lot of attempted control by domineering grandfather who thinks he has the upper hand.
The audiobook is narrated by Julia Eve with her many and well matched character voices. It is always a pleasure to be entertained by her.
I listened to the audiobook version and my voluntary and unbiased review is recorded above.
