When Charlottee Kane discovers she has a twin sister, Acelynn Benedict, in the wake of their biological mother's passing, she's immediately intrigued. To Charlottee's surprise Acelynn- a well known Savannah socialite- is immediately interested in meeting and makes the trip to Chicago to facilitate it. Unfortunately, the two sisters quickly learn there's a lot more to their story than they've been told and Charlotte gets pulled into Acelynn's high society life in ways she never imagined and doesn't like.

I absolutely devoured this book. I love a good mistaken/stolen/misrepresented identity book but they tend to be very unbelievable and almost never work as well as I hope. This one however was very grounded, giving little references to slight issues that might tip people off and acknowledging that people can't just seamlessly pretend to be something or someone they're not, while also not doing anything so egregious that they couldn't possibly avoid being caught. I also loved the dimension of the story with Pearl and loved that whole thing gave the story so much depth and didn't make it super confusing. It was just really well done in a way that most books in this vein can't pull off. It also managed Additionally, the pacing was excellent, characters were good, just overall a really entertaining story.

I am definitely looking forward to more from this author!

What a baffling and mind blowing book! So much I wasn’t expecting. This was a great audiobook. No one is who they seem by the end. Tons of twists and surprises. I loved it. So many surprises at the end that left my mouth gaping open. Creative plot from the author and all of the wow moments fit together by the end.
Once you start listening it’s hard to put this one down!

4.5 stars!

Charlotte Kane discovers she has an identical twin sister, Acelynn Benedict, who has a seemingly perfect life. After a tragedy, Charlotte assumes her sister's identity, only to uncover dark secrets and realize that no one in Acelynn's life is who they seem to be. Charlotte wants to escape this dangerous situation, but revealing the truth would mean returning to her old, troubled life.

I am still reeling from the whirlwind of emotions this book has left me with! This is the third book I have read this month centered around twins, and the plot twists just keep getting more intricate. The rollercoaster ride of this book took me by surprise, as I found myself unable to predict the ending despite my best efforts.

Once again, we are thrust into the world of identical twins assuming each other's identities with seemingly little consequence...or so it seems. We follow the lives of Charlotte and Acelyn, both with their own unique set of side characters that are easily distinguishable. Most of these characters were quite unlikable, adding to the suspense and mystery of the story. It may seem simple for twins to switch lives, but the reality is far more complex, as even identical twins have distinct personalities. The plot was well-crafted, keeping me on the edge of my seat until the very end.

I was fortunate enough to experience this story through both an audiobook and an eBook, providing me with a dual perspective. The narrator did an excellent job of bringing the story to life, further immersing me in the narrative. I found myself completely engrossed in the story, struggling to pause or walk away when necessary.

If you enjoy delving into the dark and twisted world of twin dynamics, filled with suspense and guessing games, then this book is a must-read for you.

Thank you, Love Inspired Trade and Harlequin Audio, for the digital ARC copy. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

The Other Sister is a gripping psychological thriller that had my head constantly spinning. I was absolutely hooked right from the start. There were twists upon twists that kept me engaged. The suspense in this book is high and it never lets up.

The characters are very well written and described. They mostly all have an agenda and I loved it. There are some redeemable characters thrown in so that really leveled it out. The plot was so intricately constructed. The ending was shocking and the twists were unguessable. I don't want to give too much away, buckle up and enjoy the ride!

Overall, this was a great psychological thriller. It kept me on my toes throughout the entirety of it and it ended with a shocking conclusion.

🎧 The narration by Romy Evans was great. She set the perfect tone to the story. Kept the emotions on high and the suspense on full blast. I highly enjoyed the audio.

✨️Thank you to @netgalley, @harlequinaudio & @jessicarpatch for my gifted ALC in exchange for an honest review.

A thriller that has some twisted themes of abuse, betrayal, living around drugs / poverty, mental illness. Charlotte and Acelynn are twin sisters who didn’t know each other existed until adulthood. Charlotte found evidence of this after her mom passed and she finds a photo. Acelynn is living a very different life full of rich privilege and a successful career, compared to Charlotte trying to make ends meet and living paycheck to paycheck

Some religion/ faith themes, twists and turns throughout the way and second guessing what is real and what is imagined.

Narration was expressive and excellent ! I got a little lost between past and present with the audiobook and what characters belonged in what setting. Overall, enjoyed the book.

Thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Audio for the ALC in exchange for an honest review. Release date 4/22/25.

4 - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - This book is about 2 identical twin sisters who did not know about each other until their birth mother died.

Charlotte had it rough growing up. She was in & out of foster care and always wished for a better life.

Acelynn was adopted. She was successful and had the perfect family.

After a tragic event, Charlotte assumes Acelynn's identity. Soon after, Charlotte uncovers many dark secrets/lies about her sister and realizes that her life wasn't so perfect after all. This book was fast paced and keeps you engaged.

I did figure out the big twist early on in the book, but this did not spoil the book for me because the author was able to add some doubts to my theory, which kept me engaged and questioning throughout. So due to that, I would highly recommend this book.

Once again, thank you to Harlequin Audio and NetGalley for this ARC audiobook.

Wild Story -Life isn't always better on the other side. Be careful what you wish for, as there are lies everywhere. Thanks to NetGalley, the author, and Harlequin Audio for this ARC.

Two identical, twins, separated at birth, have no idea of the others existence. One twin appears to have it all, and after her death, the remaining twin takes her place, only to discover that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. The grass is also infinitely more dangerous. Patch takes a standard trope and spices it up with well defined characters

I must be an outlier here. I made it to the 60% mark and have to quit. I can’t understand what is going on in the story, who is talking half the time, why there are so many storylines going on and how none of them are well executed. The book seems very under developed and falls flat for me. I also just saw that this is listed under Christian fiction and I had no idea. I don’t think I’ve heard anything remotely Christian mentioned once, so it must all be at the end of the book?

Anyway, I’m happy to see that so many others love this novel, but I just can’t seem to follow what’s going on.

I do appreciate the chance to preview this before it’s released and want to thank the author, NetGalley, and Harlequin Audio.
