At twenty-eight, after both her adoptive parents are no
more, Sarah Peters discovers that she was born a twin and that her twin brother
may be somewhere out there. She is desperate for some family again and
hires a private investigator, Camdyn Stark.
The premise is interesting. We loved the feels we got from
the attraction between Sarah and Cam. There are so many things going for this
book: unusual professions, MCs you root for, rippling chemistry…
But…a few very huge buts here.
First we just didn’t understand why Sarah was completely
unwilling to meet her biological father who is desperate to become family with
her but so hung up on finding her brother.
Second, we didn’t understand Cam’s immediate distrust of the
missing brother and even more, her conviction that he’d harm Sarah – without ever
having met him or spoken to him.
Third, we don’t understand why said brother would try to
kill Sarah almost immediately after meeting her.
This books didn’t leave us with the satisfied feeling a
good well-written story can. In fact, it left us a little irritated with all
the unfathomables.
