This series has been great and the idea of wrong bed is hilarious! While Amanda has quietly pined for her best friend, Like, for years he's oblivious. So of course you're thinking best friends to lovers book, WRONG CONCEPT. Best friend's twin brother! Noah has no desire to be anything to his twin's annoying best friend, until he is! They secretly can't keep their hands off one another, but it's just fooling around, right! But two, maybe three, things loom over their heads threatening. First, Luke and Noah are moving to California soon. Second, Luke has no clue what these two are doing and how's he going to act when he finds out. Third, is it just fun or are strong feelings developing?

This was a quick, fun read that draws you in to the drama, the inner mind if both Amanda and Noah as they work through their feelings, what's going on and then Luke floors you when you realize how he had been treating Amanda like a puppet and then treats her when he finds out. Interesting, fun and oh so sexy!

Amanda has a crush on her coworker Luke. Luke is moving to another state soon and Amanda wants to make a move before it's too late. She ends up in bed with the wrong twin brother, Noah. Amanda and Noah barely tolerate each other so how can they keep hooking up? A funny, don't take it seriously read.

I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and am leaving a review.

It was a light and fun read I went through in a day. I loved the concept of the story and how it was developed but I didn't feel much of a chemistry between the characters. Still it was an enjoyable fast read.

I like this sweet story about getting over the fear of falling in love and how sometimes love finds you at not the most comfortable and convenient times.
It was a funny and touching story to read in one afternoon.

This book grabbed me from the get go. It was a simple story, but had good banter and definitely steamy scenes. There was a built in end date set for the two even with their mistaken beginning of a relationship because of the move for Noah and his brother Luke. But it was good to see that Noah was able to see past the way he’d felt about Amanda pretty quickly. You could see the change in his mind and his own revelations about how things he’d assumed were negative or her being somewhat rude in the past actually weren’t, and had a more realistic, easily understandable reason. Reasons that he grew to love about her in a way. I have to say the way that Amanda decided to go after Noah at the half-marathon was incredible. I had never been to one before, only had an idea about them from tv or movies, but after going to watch my sister run a half-marathon last October, it made what happened in that scene really come alive for me in the book. Another thing I really liked was how Amanda realized when she was sitting and talking about her issues with Noah at friend get-togethers, that she had done similar for them, and that how they were reacting to her was just like the way she had also tried to help them. I think it was helpful for her to see outside the situation in a way, using her own past experiences.

Awwwh this book was adorable 😍 I'm so glad I requested it on Netgalley (and got approved), it was such a fun read! A bit like the feel-good movies I love to watch.

Writing style: There was nothing special about it, but also nothing that bothered me. There was just enough of everything, details when needed, and quick and to the point when the story had to go a little faster. Towards the end it was a little on the slow side with lots of internal dialogue so I skimmed over some pages because I don't like to waste my time.

Characters: Amanda and Noah were cute, but that's pretty much all they were. They really lacked a personality. They had jobs they loved and solid backstories, but that's where it ended. They could have been fleshed out more.

Story: I haven't read the other books in this series so I felt like I was dumped straight into a story at first, but it quickly became all about the two main characters and I didn't need the information the other books might have given to follow along. It might make for a more fun experience when you do read the first three before reading this one though.
The plot was very fun. At the beginning of my review I compared it to a feel-good movie (which I just love to watch when I'm in the mood for something brainless) and well, that's exactly what this book is. A feel-good romance novel with lots of delicious (and tastefully written) smut.

I had lots of fun reading this book so I'm giving it three stars. I don't think I'll be reading the other books as I wasn't impressed by this author enough for that.

I have mixed feelings about this book. It was a ‘fluffy’ romance to me and I really wasn't feeling that I was into the book that much.
I felt that there wasn't enough chemistry between the main characters. I wanted to read more buildup, more tension, more drama between the two lovers. I’d still give the author another go. .

What a cute, fun book! Even though I am not a fan of steamy romance novels, I actually enjoyed reading this book.

Amanda and Noah are on fire together. When you read a romance novel, you expect it to get steamy at times, and this book delivers well on that aspect. But, even apart those scenes, Amanda and Noah are very adorable as a couple. They have their insecurities, and are physically attracted to each other. So, it was interesting to see how they handled moving on to the next step.

Moreover, I have not read any of the previous books in the series. Hence I was skeptic if I would follow the characters and the plot. Even though there is some minor references given, this was perfect to read as a standalone novel too. On a side note, I love running, and NYC is one of my favorite places in the world. Hence I loved the backdrop of both of both these elements in the story-line.

Why didn’t I give this book a 5 star rating? There is only one reason for that and it was the length of the story. The story felt very short and fast, where I really didn’t get to know the characters very well. Although I loved Amanda and Noah’s chemistry together, I felt like I didn’t know them individually. Usually, I like to get to know the characters individually before seeing them paired up. However, here we are immediately thrown into the romance.

Apart from that, this was a very sexy, cute and charming story. Overall, it delivers mostly everything you look forward to in a romance novel and does not disappoint.

Oh the fireworks between Noah and Amanda, first with the almost hate vibe, on to the sexual chemistry exploding off the pages. I have how vulnerable Amanda felt in the beginning of the book. Luke stringing her along, not mean wise, but for the attention. I loved that Noah called him on it. But oh when Noah and Amanda first started making out, holy cow, that was intense. I like how they softened towards each other as they got to know one another, and how they softened in their own personalities. I wanted that happy ending for them both. And how it came together was perfect, each obtaining their happy ending doing what they do best.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review from the publisher through Netgalley.

The Story in 4 Sentences or Less: Amanda's had a crush on her co-worker Luke for the longest time and she has just one last chance to let him know before he moves across the country, so Amanda sneaks into his room at night to plant what she hopes is a life changing kiss on him. Except she ends up kissing Luke's twin brother, Noah! Talk about life changing since she can't stand Noah and he doesn't like Amanda either. Only now that they've shared one hot kiss, they can't seem to go back to avoiding each other, much less keep their hands off each other.







Like It? Hate it? Love it? Why? My absolute favorite romance trope is enemies-to-lovers but it has to be done right. That means there has to be some serious, adult rated sexual tension in those exchanges between the characters who swear they hate each other. To me, it's not an enemies-to-lovers romance if the heat level isn't at least 4 out of 5. So how did the latest book in Rebecca Brooks' Accidental Love series fair?



Load up on the ice water because Amanda and Noah have a raw, electric energy when they're around each other, and that's what made Wrong Bed, Right Brother work so well for me. These two couldn't stand each other in the beginning but one mistake was all it took to have them redirecting their dislike from snarky barbs to something much hotter. I loved all the sexual tension between them but it didn't just stall there. Noah and Amanda end up falling in love in a way that acknowledges the past dislike but breaks it down in a way that feels natural and gives these two a chance to get to know each other without the distractions of friends or family. I loved that the author gave them that time away from everyone to let down their guards and build something special and I loved that it came as such a surprise to Noah and Amanda.


I've read the previous books in the Accidental Love series and I can say that Wrong Bed, Right Brother is the best book out of them all. Seriously, I really liked the way the enemies-to-lovers theme was handled with plenty of heat but also plenty of heart. Just the thing to read when you want something sexy but well paced.



One last thing about Wrong Bed, Right Brother that I feel is important, the blurb on the book is a bit misleading, it's written from Amanda's POV but the book is strictly third person POV (yay). Just needed to toss that in, in case you're like me and don't like first person POV.



Click It or Skip It? Click It. Especially if enemies-to-lovers is your thing but you want that level 4 heat between characters.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this book. Unfortunately, I will not be giving an online review for this title as I was unable to engage with the story. Despite this book having an amazing premise, I only made it to 50% where I just had to call it. I found the story to be quite shallow and the characterisations were a touch annoying. The reason I am not giving a review is that I respect authors and the hard work they put into their books too much to give a neutral review that could be construed as negative and I don't like to affect ratings negatively. Just because I could not engage with the story, it doesn't mean someone else won't. I wish this author all the best with this book and her future writing.

This was my first book by Rebecca Brooks.

Noah and Amanda are two people who find love when they least expected it. Despite the many bumps along the way, they managed to find lasting love. Their romance is sweet, funny and with hot some steamy love scenes ;-)

This is the last book in the Accidental Love series. Even though, I have not read the previous books in the series, I don’t feel I missed anything. In fact, I liked how the characters from the previous books were incorporated in the story. I would definitely like to read more of Rebecca Brooks’ books.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A spicy-sweet romance. I really enjoyed the storyline. The main characters were such an interesting duo. Loved their story.

Amanda has been crushing on her co-worker Luke for months, and finally decides she should just go for it. She climbs into his bed and starts kissing him, only to find out it's his twin brother. Who she doesn't get along with at all and hates her. But now she can't get him out of her head, and neither can he. And that is the start of nights spent with him, while the days are spend pretending that nothing has happened. But what happens when you start to want more?

This book seemed intriguing just from the blurb, so I thought why not? On the one hand, I liked parts of it. On the other, I felt like something was..missing. Amanda and Noah definitely have some off the charts chemistry. That starts almost from the beginning of the book. Their attraction is sizzling and so are the sex scenes. However I feel like their actual relationship was lacking. There didn't seem to be anything to them more than sex. And while that was good, I was really hoping for more to their characters and relationship. The writing itself isn't bad, I just was left wanting I guess.

A fun read, the latest in this series - although I don't think it matters if you have read the others first.

Amanda has had a crush on her work friend Luke for years. He is about to move to the other side of the country, so she thinks now is her chance to do something about it. They are away for the weekend with friends, and after him flirting with her all night she takes her chance and sneaks in to his bed. She gets a surprise when it turns out to be his twin Noah, a man she doesn't like at all, but now they can't keep away from each other. He is supposed to be moving to the other side of the country too, so do they have a chance at anything more than a fling?

I like how it is told from both of their points of view so you can understand why they act the way they do towards each other.

the accidental love series comes to a lovely conclusion with wrong bed, right brother. this time the focus is on amanda, who has long held a crush on her coworker luke. luke who has an annoying twin brother, noah, who is always around. always judging amanda and finding her lacking.

to be fair to noah, i think part of his annoyance with amanda is how she is so clearly gaga for his twin, even if he doesn't acknowledge that issue until much later.

when amanda ends up in bed with noah, kissing noah, everything changes. that crush on luke. gone. that annoyance with noah. gone. all of a sudden all either of them can think of is how to get each other off without getting caught. given their propensity for public hookups at the start of their fling, this is a very valid concern.

but things soon settle into something real. except the timing couldn't be worse, because noah is planning to move to california with luke and they're leaving in six short weeks. it's crazy to change everything you'd planned for because of a relationship that's just getting off the ground. especially when it's someone who used to be obsessed with your sibling, right? but maybe the reason for the move was wrong and staying means there's a very real chance of happiness.

i really enjoyed noah and amanda's journey. this series has been really just all-around delightful.

This was super cute. It was my first book by the author i could definitely see myself buying and reading the others in this series. I didn't feel like i was missing anything by starting in book 4 so I'd definitely say its a standalone within a series which is perfect if you don't want to commit to the others. But i loved Noah. I honestly thought Luke was a huge jerk. But Amanda was sweet and im glad she found her happily ever after even if it was accidentally. Can't wait to check out more by this author.

Wrong Bed, Right Brother by Rebecca Brooks is the 4th book in the Accidental Love romance series, and my first book by this author. Amanda has had a crush on her co-worker Luke for years. Luke is planning on movie to California with his twin brother Noah. Amanda decides to slip into Luke's bed, unfortunately Noah and Luke had stitched rooms, so she was kissing Noah, who she hates. I found this book to be a cute, steamy, and fun romance which I really enjoyed. I will be reading more books by this author. I highly recommend this book.

While I love the author and have really enjoyed others in her Wrong/Right series, this one wasn’t my favorite. I found it hard to reconcile how the dislike between Amanda and Noah morphed so quickly into them almost being obsessed with each other after a make out session or two.
Neither character really captured my interest enough to root for the pairing. As the last of the group to get paired off, I think Amanda got short changed in the storyline department...or maybe she never impressed me in her cameos in other books (I don’t remember her in them) and I just wasn’t invested enough in her HEA.
The writing is all there, it was just a case of the main characters not being what I’d hoped they be. I’ll continue to read Rebecca Brooks’ work, because I really do enjoy her work.

While I’m not usually a fan of third-person omniscient type writing, I really enjoyed this story. I probably would have liked it better if it was first person because I like being inside the main characters heads more thoroughly than third person gives us, but that was really my only complaint. The characters were entertaining and had interesting chemistry. The story was engaging and flowed nicely. Overall I liked it a lot! My first by this author and I’d definitely recommend this and wouldn’t mind reading more of her work.
