FOOL ME TWICE is a passionate story, similar to Beauty and the Beast, with romance and secrets. Olivia is a heroine who doesn't care what others think of her and doesn't back down from a challenge. The need to deceive Alastair doesn't sit well with her, but her need to be safe causes her to continue with the deception. Her story will have readers hoping she'll get her happy ending. Alastair is nursing his wounded pride and trying to figure out what kind of person he really is, when he meets Olivia. He grows throughout the story, becoming a determined and intimidating duke, and becomes an appealing hero, and a completely different man than the one Olivia originally meets.

Alastair's servants are comical and give FOOL ME TWICE some much needed humor. Meredith Duran writes an unexpected twist at the end, and readers may find themselves empathizing a bit with the antagonist. FOOL ME TWICE brings together two characters with the need for revenge, and Duran expertly turns this revenge into an enjoyable love story.
