How I Met Your Brother
241 pages · First published 2016
Belle has spent years regretting the college crush who saw her only as a friend and then married her roommate. When she learns that Marco is divorced and vacationing with his family in Cancún, she travels to the same resort determined not to let the right man escape twice. Marco’s twin brother Flynn has other plans because he wants Marco to reconcile with his ex-wife and immediately recognizes Belle as a threat to that goal. Janette Rallison turns Belle and Flynn’s competing schemes into a breezy romantic comedy where sabotaging someone else’s love life creates an attraction neither conspirator intended.
