This was a light hearted fast paced novella. It was cute and sweet but very superficial.

I needed something short and to the point. I guess that was this. 

The idea in general was a good one, one twin dumps his girl and the other swoops in to make her happy again. Over all I enjoyed this one but sometimes it felt like it was moving at warp speed while also trying to fit in as many "hip" cliché sayings as possible. I am interested in how things work out with the sisters so I'll probably read the rest of the series eventually.

The best way to get over someone is to get under someone is a saying I think the author had in mind when this was written. Normally, I would be interested in a sexy revenge story, but in this case the someone Mary wants to get over dumped her that day and the someone she wants to get under is his twin brother. Adding to her instalove is some of the cringiest & off-putting dirty talk that I’ve read. I thought the plot was all over the place and I just found Mary to be unlikeable.
