Saving Miss Everly by Sally Britton
4.0
Hope has craved traveled and adventure her whole life. Identical twin to Grace (see Discovering Grace by the same author), who never had such wanderlust, Hope always finds herself in trouble. When her folly threatens to take away her change to get out of England, she hatches a scheme with her sister to switch places. Both sisters, then, get what they want. There's just one catch... identical in looks, Grace and Hope couldn't be more different in temperament.
Hope tries desperately to maintain the farce of being her sister, even when she ends up stranded on an island with a devastatingly handsome stranger who brings out strong feelings and is in every way her soulmate.
Alejandro had been shipwrecked long enough that he never thought he'd be rescued. Even now, he resents the additional bodies to feed and shelter, believing they too will be shipwrecked forever. He finds himself falling for "Grace" when they spend time alone, but is confused by how different she acts with the others.
Will they be rescued? Will Hope tell Alejandro who she really is, and will she lose him forever if she does?
This story spoke to me on so many levels. First, I had recently visited the Caribbean Islands in the book, so I had a soft spot for the history. Second, I like the shipwrecked/stranded Gilligan's Island type concept. Third, I'm a sucker for Latin men, and Alejandro fits that bill nicely. Plus having read Grace's story, I was investing in finding out how it went for Hope.
