About this listen

Marlie's life in Santa Barbara is the epitome of perfection: the ocean sparkles under the California sun, her studies are going brilliantly, and in Tristan, she has found her soulmate. But this idyllic existence begins to crack when a stranger appears at her door one evening, claiming to be Tristan's twin brother, Callan—someone whose existence Tristan never mentioned. Shortly after this revelation, Tristan vanishes without a trace.

Desperate for answers, Marlie reluctantly accepts Callan's help, and together they journey across Southern California searching not only for Tristan but for the truth. With each passing day, an unwanted attraction grows between them, along with Marlie's tormenting doubts. As she delves deeper into the brothers' past, her own memories and certainties begin to blur. The twins share more than just their appearance—a secret that defies the boundaries of possibility and threatens to plunge Marlie into an abyss between love and betrayal.

A captivating romantic urban fantasy about hidden truths, deceptive certainties, and the ultimate question: Who can you trust when even your own memories might be lying?

Not what I expected, weak storyline of romance with a touch of science fiction which didn’t really work for me

Disappointed

This listen is hard to put down, ended up finishing it over a few days. The story itself explores the power of forgiveness and emotional healing in a meaningful and modern way. The author’s clear and sincere writing takes the listener on a powerful journey of discovery, uncovering the true meaning of grief, love, and self-forgiveness.

Interesting concept with an unexpected plot twist

Narrator shouldn’t have attempted an American accent in parts, was a poor effort and almost stopped me listening

The twist in the plot

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

The ending has left a real distaste towards the main character. I’m not even sure the author meant it as such. Clearly used the situation as to covertly play out her real intention which you could see coming a mile off yet I did not consider the character would go so low while being so high morality on others. Truly ruined the whole adventure. While the basic idea of memory manipulation has been done this could have gone so many ways but the author stuck to the morality line and ended it with a contradiction. So I’m not sure of the point in this at all.
Narrators were fine but I preferred the male perspective as it was less abrupt.

Complete contradiction
