Famous by Association
Bestselling author, Leddy Harper, proves that trading places with your twin isn't as fun—or easy—as it sounds in this fun, lighthearted tale of one sister's journey down the road of good versus evil. I’d spent years separating myself from my twin sister in every possible way. Until one day, I was offered a lot of money to pretend to be her. It was supposed to be easy. Look like her, dress like her, act like her. Don’t make friends, don’t be nice, and don’t fall in love. Get in and get out. But I should’ve known that it wouldn’t be that simple. Being Tiffany Lewis’s twin sister was hard enough...being Tiffany Lewis was much, much worse. A famous twin, a hunky neighbor who could ruin it all, and a film crew...what could possibly go wrong? Everything. Everything could go wrong. Horribly wrong.

( ARC REVIEW)
I REALLY LIKED THE CONCEPT BUT IT DIDNT END HOW I EXPECTED IT BE. THE STORY IS ABOUT TASHA WHO HAS TO PRETEND TO BE HER TWIN SISTER WHO IS A FAMOUS MODEL BECAUSE HER SISTER WAS CAUGHT UP IN SOME WORK SO NOW TASHA HAS TO PRETEND TO BE HER AND DURING THAT, SHE FALLS FOR HER NEW NEIGHBOUR WHO FIRST THOUGHT THAT TASHA IS HER BITCH TWIN SISTER BUT LATER ON HE LEARNS THE TRUTH AND FROM THEN ON MANY PROBLEMS STARTS. FIRST OF ALL, I LIKED THE WRITING AND TASHA’S CHARACTER BUT THE HERO HEROINE DIDNT HAVE ANY CHEMISTRY AT ALL. TASHA HAD MORE CHEMISTRY WITH ADAM WHO IS HER SISTER’S FIANCE. JACOBY WHO IS THE HERO IS 32 BUT REALLY CHILDISH, HE IS INSECURE AS FUCK AND SELFISH TOO. HE DOESNT WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH TASHA AND MENTIONED THAT MANY TIMES BECAUSE OF THE POPULARITY THAT HE IS “SCARED OF”. I DONT KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN, BUT HE IS REALLY CHILDISH, I DIDNT LIKE HIS CHARACTER AND HE BLAMED TASHA CUZ SHE WAS WORRIED ABOUT HIM WHICH LED TO HIS NAME DRAGGED IN THE CONTROVERSY. IT WASNT HER FAULT, SHE CARED ABOUT HIM BUT HE IS SO IMMATURE AND HIS SISTER HAD TO CONVINCE HIM THAT IT WAS NOT TASHA S FAULT 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️.
I JUST LIKED TASHA’S CHARACTER AND HOW SHE HANDLED ALL THE SITUATIONS AND PRETENDED TO BE HER SISTER. THE ENDING WAS RUSHED UP AND FROM THE BEGINNING TASHA AND JACOBY CLAIMED THAT THEY WERE JUST NEIGHBOURS WHO HAD A CRUSH ON EACH OTHER AND FROM THERE, SUDDENLY JACOBY SAYS HE LOVES HER. IT WAS REALLY RUSHED AND I DIDNT SEE ANY BONDING OR CONNECTION BETWEEN THEM, IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE TOGETHER TO WASTE THEIR TIME CUZ THEY HAD NOTHING ELSE TO DO. IT WAS QUIET BORING AND TIFFANY WHO IS THE BITCH SISTER, AT THE END WE DONT GET TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED TO HER OR WHERE SHE IS EVEN THO SHE HAS A HUGE ROLE IN THIS BOOK. EHH.. IT WAS OKAY BUT NOT FOR ME I GUESS

I was looking for some light read to get me over the dreary weekend, I went into this exciting fun and sexy rom com at least this is what the blurb led me to believe.
I instantly liked Tasha and despised Tiffany, Dave was also a winner with his positive and protective attitude towards Tasha.
I got frustrated with Jacoby and his whiney attitude, I found him immature for his age and unable to face any kind of situation.
The chemistry between Tasha and Jacoby wasn’t really there and there was little to no action between the two. It fell really short in that department.
The story was rather slow and actions were repetitive without adding much to what already happened, it only picked up towards the end.
These above are my personal opinions and perceptions!
Overall this is a sweet, easy and fast reading it will warm your heart in wintry evenings, it’s perfect to give you something to read in between series.

Leddy Harper writes a complete bait and switch story between identical twin sisters.
Tasha is taken by surprise when her sisters assistant shows up on her front doorstep asking for her help.
Her sister has signed a contract for a reality TV show to follow her around, but with a surgery gone wrong she is unable to fulfill the contract while she is recovering. So Tasha has been hired to fill in for her twin sister
However, trying to pull of the air of her evil twin Tiffany. Tasha must act mean to everyone.
While attempting to practice walking in Tiffany’s shoes, she is startled by the entrance of Jacoby.
Jacoby has met the infamous Tiffany once before and he was not impressed by her attitude. So he is stunned when she doesn’t seem to remember their last encounter and how she acted towards him.
Tasha being legally bound not to disclose any information about what is going on starts to have an attraction to Jacoby. But she is supposed to be pretending that she’s engaged. And feels hurt when it’s mentioned.
As filming for the TV series starts and Tasha meets the other lady cast members she is floored that the women could be friends with her sister. She genuinely notices how nice and sweet the women are. Except one who is bound and determined to bring out the ugly that her twin sister Tiffany has kept hidden.
And when those secrets target Jacoby he hides. Because he has been keeping his own secret. One he wanted the whole world to forget.
These funny characters will make you laugh with all their banter. But can what happens when Tasha is no longer pretending to be her sister? Will her being Famous by Association truly alienate her from everyone she has come to know?

I actually really liked a significant portion of this book, so I’m kinda disappointed that it wound up being a 3-star read for me. But the beginning and the end each lose it a star (more on that in a minute). It was entertaining, a little different than the norm, and a combination of sweet and soapy. Yeah, there’s some drama because our heroine is pretending to be her “evil” twin, but really this is a sweet, mostly clean romance that’s very low angst. Both of the leads are genuinely likable people (most of the time), and their relationship is based on how well they work as friends. Other than a few stumbles at the beginning and the end, I enjoyed it and read it in one sitting.
The story follows Tasha, a woman who has always been more comfortable with guy friends. Tasha and her “evil” twin sister, Tiffany, are polar opposites, so she's always avoided the popular crowd and instead prefers to play video games while drinking a beer. So it throws her world off-balance when Tiffany demands that Tasha fill in for her while filming a reality TV show. It’s completely out of Tasha’s comfort zone, and she’s not nearly as mean as her sister. While pretending to be Tiffany, Tasha meets her sister’s neighbor, Jacoby, and the two strike up a tentative friendship that has the potential for more. But keeping up the ruse while still trying to get the guy is extremely complicated, and trouble soon follows.
This has definitely got a rom com/soap opera vibe, in that there’s plenty of drama but it never gets too heavy. The angst is minimal and everything is just slightly over the top. I actually really liked that about it; the vibe makes this a distinct story that won’t be to everyone’s tastes, but is fun to read. Where this faltered for me was the beginning and the end. The humor at the beginning came off as pretty mean, not just in reference to Tiffany, but also sometimes between Tasha and Jacoby. I really didn’t love how things started for them, but that changed as the story progressed. The ending just disappointed me. It felt like Tasha and Jacoby were just starting to get somewhere when things unraveled, and I didn’t love how it all played out. Saw it a mile away, but didn’t love it. It’s a fun read and I actually would love to get Adam’s story, but a few storyline changes could’ve made this much better. If you’re looking for something light with just a touch of sexiness, this will still satisfy. I received a free copy via Give Me Books and am voluntarily leaving a review of this drama-filled romance.

It’s been a good while since I read an entire book in less then 24 hours, but that’s what happened with this book. I had to put it down to go to sleep since I started reading it late in the afternoon.
Tasha is kind, sweet and caring and her twin sister, Tiffany is every but those things. Tiffany has made Tasha’s life hell their entire lives. Now Tasha is going to pretend to be Tiffany but at what cost to herself.
Jacoby has had his fair share of the spotlight growing up and hated every minute of it. So when he’s attracted to the famous Tiffany Lewis it doesn’t make sense since she’s so horrible and he fights it at every turn.
I’m left wanting more from this book. I want Tiffany’s story.

It has been a while since I laughed so hard while reading! I absolutely adored Tasha & Jacoby and going on their journey!
I loved Tasha right from the beginning. And watching her try to become her twin sister Tiffany, who was the complete opposite of her, was hilarious. And I found Jacoby to be beyond swoon worthy.
Tasha & Jacoby together was everything!
I can’t wait for more by Leddy Harper!

I really liked the concept and story lines of this book. It’s funny but also a little heart breaking (not going to spoil anything). I’m lucky I’m an only child I guess lol. 😂 The book reads very fluently, so if you are in the mood for a light, kinda chicklit type of book, pick this one up! :)

Review by Jen Skewes
I always look forward to a Leddy Harper book. Throughout the last couple of years while reading her books, she has obliterated my heart, made me ugly cry, made me laugh and smile. With each book of hers I read; I manage to fall for yet another one of her heroes. Some of her books are light funny reads while others are filled with drama and angst. I have loved them all and Famous by Association is no different. It is exactly what I needed. It was a fun, light and quick read that I managed to read in one sitting. At one point I looked at the location of the book and couldn’t believe I only had 20% left.
Tasha lives with her best friend Dave and has a twin sister who she hardly speaks to. Growing up her sister tortured and embarrassed her. When a strange man shows up at her door she is not sure what to do. Especially when she finds out exactly who she is. Ty is her sister’s assistant. Apparently some botched plastic surgery has left her sister in the hospital instead of starting the new reality show that she signed up for. So, Ty and her sister come up with this brilliant idea to have Tasha pretend to be her sister. They may look exactly alike bit these two are complete polar opposite. Tasha is sweet and kind while Tiffany is a complete bitch. Tosh has no plan to pretend to play the role of her sister, until Ty sweetens the pot, not allowing her to refuse.
No one can know about their plan, especially the hot neighbor next door. Which is hard considering the is totally attracted to him and she enjoys pending time with him. When he does find out the truth will he go along with this entire plan so he can keep seeing Tasha or will he make her life miserable?
Tasha and Jacoby could not have been more perfect for each other. Since the moment they met, even though he didn’t know her true identity, I felt the connection. Between the flirty and sarcastic banter, the physical connection and the fact that they are both genuinely nice people, I knew that they belonged with each other. Tasha is beautiful even if she may not see herself that way. She is confident n who she is. I honestly related to her on so many levels, the sarcasm, being best friends with a guy, not all glam and glitz like her sister. I loved her!! And I especially loved the friendship she had with her best friend Dave, how they knew each other better than anyone. Jacoby was not just nice to look at, he had a heart. He was fun, sweet and the kind of guy that you cannot help but love.
Famous by Association was a fun and light read, that didn’t have that unnecessary drama. Most of the dram came from the sister who you loved to hate!! It made me laugh and smile throughout most of the book. It was quirky and light and I loved it. I loved the supporting characters; they each had their own way about them, and they all managed to make me laugh. The connection between Jacoby and Tasha was perfect and I even fell for Adam even if we only really saw him for a small amount of time. Another great one from Ms. Harper.

FAMOUS BY ASSOCIATION is the story of twin sisters, Tasha & Tiffany, that could not be anymore opposite, but still identical twins. The nice & sweet twin is a 28-year-old named Tasha Lewis that lives a quiet & peaceful life with her greatest friend in the world named Dave. Her & Dave are big into gaming. She actually works at a gaming store as an assistant manager, while Dave works at a youth center. They are at their shared apartment enjoying playing a game together when suddenly there is persistent knocking at their door. The anti-social friends really do not want to be bothered by answering the door but they do anyways. They would learn to regret answering that door, as by doing so their lives would soon be changed forever.
It was a man named Ty Sandoval that was knocking at their door. He was an assistant to Tasha's sister Tiffany, whom is a famous model & an awful person with absolutely no good redeeming qualities at all. He came with a proposition for Tasha. All she had to do was pretend to impersonate her famous snobby twin sister. She would be generously compensated for her time and co-operation. Her and Dave must sign a legal document in which they would adhere to all the rules and conditions. How hard could it be? Tasha would find that answer out fast, but also be delighted to find out her soul-mate lived next door to her sister's home in a tiny pool house.
Jacoby Abbott had lived a difficult childhood, and found that life had not gotten any easier as he had grownup, and wondering how his life had turned from bad to worse. He had met Tiffany Lewis once and had hoped to never have to cross paths with that hellion again. Imagine his shock & amazement when he ran into her, and in fact that she had a complete personality replacement.
Leddy Harper has a way of writing that keeps you interested in the story. This is a slow-burn romance, but with plenty of drama, too. It has a few twist & turns you won't see coming. I enjoyed reading and uncovering all the secrets.

Famous By Association was such a fun read! It has a great concept -- Tasha has to pretend to be her kinda-famous twin sister, Tiffany, for the taping of a reality housewives-type show while her sister is tied up recovering from a botched cosmetic surgery. So when Tasha falls for the next-door neighbor, Jacoby, things get complicated...
Tasha and Tiffany are identical twins, but the very definition of good and evil. Tasha is all light and rainbows, and Tiffany is just a wicked witch. Needless to say, Jacoby is stunned after his first encounter with Tasha because it is like she had an identity transplant and nothing like his previous encounter with Tiffany. Of course, Tasha signed a NDA, but thanks to her clever best friend, Jacoby is able to figure out the difference between the sisters and a relationship ensues.
There's a lot at play in this book with Tiffany's infidelity, what Tasha can and can't tell Jacoby, how she struggles to keep up appearances, and Jacoby's insecurities based on his personal past with being famous by association. But I really enjoyed how Leddy Harper brings it all together. I loved how relaxed Tasha could be around Jacoby, and found their friendship/relationship to be very sweet. I really felt bad for Tiffany's fiance, Adam, in the midst of this mess, but he turns out just fine by the end of the book. (I would love to see him get a story of his own some day!)

Tasha and Tiffany are identical twins, but the very definition of good and evil. Tasha is all light and rainbows, and Tiffany is just a wicked witch. Needless to say, Jacoby is stunned after his first encounter with Tasha because it is like she had an identity transplant and nothing like his previous encounter with Tiffany. Of course, Tasha signed a NDA, but thanks to her clever best friend, Jacoby is able to figure out the difference between the sisters and a relationship ensues.

Famous by Association by Leddy Harper is a story about identical twin that switch places and all the resulting drama that take place. Tasha was the good twin, the nerdy twin who had a good heart and was used always by her (evil) shallow identical twin Tiffany, to take her place and do things that she didn't feel like doing- like now. Jacoby is Tiffany/Tasha's new neighbor. He is quiet but very handsome. Drama happens and it was like wow! At first, this story really had me going. There was this instant chemistry between Jacoby and Tasha but the twin sister storyline just didn't work for me. It had good bones, great characters , amazing start and potential to really go far. The story just seemed to get lost midflight and the ending was ok. Overall, just a good read by this author. Has great characters, good promise but the plot seemed to get lost. Still the chemistry is sizzling, liked Tasha's spunk, and Jacoby had this likable quality to him. The secondary characters helped the story.
My Rating: 4.0 stars ********

Famous by Association was a light and entertaining read with a fun concept. The story revolved around an identical twin switching places with her sister and all the resulting drama that ensues.
Tasha was an awkward, nerdy girl who had a heart of gold unlike her perfect, “evil” twin sister. It wasn’t easy for her to pretend to be her sister, but it was really enjoyable watching her try. Her hot neighbor, Jacoby, is confused by her hot and cold personality and isn’t sure which side is the real Tasha.
Jacoby was a sweet guy who has a tragic past and wants nothing to do with the spotlight. While he and Tasha become fast friends, he has to decide if a possible relationship is worth the risk.
This was an interesting take on the twin storyline and I really enjoyed watching the friendship develop between Jacoby and Tasha. They made me laugh and root for them to find a way to be together.

3 stars!
Famous by Association is a cute, fun, entertaining read with a TON of drama. The story features Tasha, a nerdy, sweet and sassy girl with a huge heart. Her twin sister has got herself into a bind and Tasha being the sweet girl she is agrees to pose as her twin sister on a reality TV show. Problem is she is an evil witch and Tasha’s complete opposite.
While pretending to be Tiffany, Tasha meets Jacoby. Her sisters neighbour. I didn’t feel their connection immediately but it was a slow build between them which I appreciated and ended up falling for them in the end.
I really liked Jacoby. He was confused by Tasha’s behaviour initially. He couldn’t figure out her personality switch. He has had a tragic past and I really felt for him.
The plot was well written but I found myself disappointed in the development of the story and saw the drama coming a mile away. I rated this 3 stars because the drama became way too over the top and I struggled to finish this one. Readers that love reality tv shows, rom-com and ridiculous antics may enjoy it though.

Payback...
Apparently you can have a good twin and an evil incarnate twin...Famous by Association proves it!
As if Tasha didn't already know her sister was a chib of epic proportions, she is immersed in the vile lifestyle of the rich and chib-y (it sounds better than trying to say ychib). Being a better person than her evil twin is as easy as breathing for Tosh. However the Herculean the task of being Tiff looked before, Tosh has learned its more like a Sisyphean task.
Famous by Association is a cute fish out of water story. Its a sweet romance and and revenge on the evil Heathers (I mean Tiffanys) of the world too.

Famous by Association is a stand-alone, contemporary romance, witty and fun, with some serious elements.
Tasha is a 28 year old twin who loves her life. Great job, one best friend, life's good. Til her twin contacts her with a proposition she can't say no to. And so it all begins.
Jacoby is a 32 year old landscaper, a good guy, and Tasha/Tiffany's new neighbor. He's already through a lot anD has the scars to prove it.
What we hav is a great storyline, two maincharacters who'll have you in knots, twinsies, one good, one hmmm, great writing and voila, that's FbA in a nutshell.
A great read, 4,5 beautiful stars.

If you are a fan of drama, humor, and interesting story ideas, then this is for you. The concept was fun and I enjoyed some of the craziness Tasha and other characters endured. Jacoby I loved instantly with Tasha being a force of nature. It felt like part of a reality tv show. I do have overall mixed feelings thought. The beginning and end were just okay with the bulk of the story entertaining. I did find myself drifting at times. One twin pretending to be the other? What could possibly go wrong? You will have to read to find out what happens.

Another great book by Leddy. Loved the whole concept of this book, it’s really close to home for me as I’m an identical twin. My sister and I are complete opposites just like Tasha and Tiffany, me being like Tasha and my sister being like Tiffany, other than the famous part. Jacoby is the perfect book boyfriend, kind, generous and good looking. He had a troubled background with despicable parents that left him feeling guilty and thought that with that he couldn’t open his heart to loving someone like Tasha. Love the slow burn to this romance too. Highly recommended.

I liked Famous by Association, but there were some parts, that I didn’t love.
The idea, that a normal twin has to stand in for her model twin sister and falls in love with the neighbor, who doesn’t want the spotlight, was great.
The writing was also good, but some scenes were pretty awkward for me to read.
The ending might seem a little rushed for some readers, but I didn’t feel that way. I just missed the motivation of the person, who actually made everything happen.

Really enjoyed this book Tasha and Jacoby were a good fun couple and the interactions with Tasha and best friend Dave and Ty were fun and realistic.
I would’ve liked Tasha to have a face to face showdown with her twin Tiffany rather than everything going via Ty or the iPad, and a bit more about what happened after Jacobys press relief and Tiffany’s reaction to it but otherwise really enjoyed the story.
Would like a book on Tiffany x

Recipe for a fun romantic comedy: Yin and Yang twins, witty banter, shenanigans, snarky best friend, fish out of water in ridiculous high heals, and you have all the ingredients of an incredibly good read which packs in the entertainment value. I loved Tasha, Dave and Jacoby, oh and Ty. The balance of comedy and romance worked and the sheer kindness of Tasha and daftness of her trying to pull of being her opposite, was gold.
This book was the perfect read to lighten the heart. 💖💖💖💖

Jacoby and Tasha were awesome! I loved their chemistry! Dave was a fabulous side character, along with Ty and Adam. I really hope Adam can get his own book for his HEA.
This book was hilarious and sweet!

This was the perfect lighthearted fun read! I always love how Leddy Harper writes about the trials and tribulations of real people struggling with a developing relationship.
This remains true with Tasha and Jacoby. Tasha finds herself in a situation where she must impersonate her twin sister Tiffany. So there is definitely some confusion related to mistaken identity when Tasha first meets her sister’s neighbor Jacoby.
There were laugh out loud times in this book, and of course, the feel goods, and the times when I was sniffling and wiping tears off my face.
Tasha wasn’t very good at keeping her secret identity a secret, but that made the story that much more believable.
I also really enjoyed the side character, Dave—-Tasha’s gay best friend and roommate.
As the reader, you are informed about the secret Tasha is keeping from the first moment, but Jacoby has his own secret—and you won’t believe it when you find out!
Definitely a MUST READ :-)

Famous by Association by Leddy Harper is a must read book that I read overnight and then started it once again as soon as I finished. I enjoyed every thing about this book.
Tasha is a sweetheart, she’s caring and totally different than her twin, Tiffany. But when an opportunity arises to make a load of money for something close to her heart, she has to turn into the evil twin. What she never expected was to meet the guy next door. She had a job to do but had to make sure to keep up the persona of Tiff, even though it was hard for her to do. But when things get to be too much the cards start to fall and being Famous by Association isn’t worth the hurt and the drama. But in the end love wins and the good people thrive and we get our happily ever after.
We watch as the good guys win and the bad guys fall.

Tasha Lewis is 29 years old and stays as far away from the limelight as possible given that her twin sister, Tiffany, is a model and constantly in the spotlight, especially with her recent engagement to football star Adam King. When Tasha is offered lots of money to pretend to be Tiffany so she doesn’t lose out on a TV opportunity she reluctantly agrees but has no idea how hard it’s going to be.
With pretending to be her sister what could go wrong except getting a little too close to the hunky neighbor next door, figuring out “friend” alliances and navigating an engagement.
Can Tasha pull it off or will she be figured out at a fraud?
This was such a great book and as I was reading it I remembered why I enjoy this author so much! There were so many laughs and other moments that touched your heart and made you think. There was such a wide range of characters and you never were sure who you were going to like and who you were going to hate at the end of it.
I absolutely loved Tasha and really thought if she was going to pretend to be her sister that she was really doing it for the right reason – a youth center. That being said you knew she was going to find herself struggling to be her sister who was not a nice person at all and was mean to everyone. Tasha on the other hand was awesome and so friendly which almost got her caught so any times.
I thought Tasha’s first interaction with the hunky next door neighbor, Jacoby Abbott, was super interesting as she obviously completely forgot who she was supposed to be. I loved them getting to know each other once some of the truth came out.
I loved Tasha’s friendship with Dave and their fun and unique relationship through the book. I loved the box he sent her when she first got to Tiffany’s and how it wound up in the wrong hands. Dave was always there for Tasha from the start to the end and I really liked how tight and close they were.
Tasha’s relationship with Tiffany’s personal assistant, Ty Sandoval was interesting. At first I really thought that Ty was made at Tasha for every slip up that she made and then it took a couple of turns that I definitely wasn’t expecting, especially at the end of the book.
I really liked Tiffany’s close friend, Jeannine, and wondered how she could like Tiffany. Serenity was definitely much more calculated and cold and I was wondering what she had over Tiffany and I was and wasn’t surprised when things got revealed.
I initially didn’t think that I was going to like Adam much as he was with Tiffany but it turns out that he was a super great guy and I really liked him and what he stood for.
There were so many amazing twists and turns but the one character that blew my mind was Tasha’s mom who was so over the top with Tiffany and blamed Tasha for certain events!
This book had me gripped from the first moment to the last and I really didn’t want it to ever end!!

Guys, it has been a long time since I had a book from this author to read, and to tell you that I was excited is the understatement of the year.
I was on cloud nine and couldn't start it fast enough.
Leddy Harper has given me some of the best books ever as well as being responsible for the biggest ugly cry of my reading life.
That book... That book marked me permanently.
Her writing can be sweet and wild, as well as string and intense. Just go and see for yourself.
Famous by Association is her latest release and explores the lives of Tasha and Jacoby.
Tasha just wants to live her life away from her twin. She's used to be in the shadows and wants to keep it that way until it doesn't.
When her twin sister's surgery goes wrong, she needs to pretend to be her but...
Jacoby knows Tiffany very well, but when their paths crossed again he's confused. Why isn't she remembering him?
What he doesn't know is that she's not Tiffany but Tasha, her twin sister...
So good. It was really good.
The plot was amazing and very well written.
Each character worked perfectly with each other and the friendship that surrounded them is super tight.
Each chapter was even more addictive than the latest and I couldn't stop reading.
Heck, I've read it in one sitting and when the end appeared on my kindle it was 4 am...
I totally lost track of time.
There were parts of the book that I really wanted to hurt someone. What a bi*** one character could be.
Seriously? How can someone be so mean?
And then we're others that I laughed so hard that I almost wet my panties...
I only have good things to get to say about this book and I totally advise you to read it.
Grab it now and see for yourself.
Leddy... Oh, sweetie... This book nailed it. It was amazing to read another book from you.
But... Being greedy... What's next?

Up All Night w/ Books Blog
Famous By Association is a standalone written by Leddy Harper. This story is full of laugh-out-loud moments with a little bit of a soap opera type feel to it, but all light-hearted drama. The story centers around Tasha and Jacoby and the crazy situation they find themselves in.
Tasha is a likable video game nerd working as an assistant manager in a video game store. Content with her quiet life she is taken completely by surprise when her identical twin sister, Tiff’s assistant appears on her doorstep with a proposition. While Tiff is stuck in Mexico she needs Tasha to impersonate her for an upcoming reality TV show.
“There isn’t enough incentive in the entire world to do her the tiniest favor, let alone something of this magnitude.”
Jacoby is Tiff’s next-door neighbor who didn’t have the most pleasant of meetings with Tiff. However, when Tasha arrives to stand in for Tiff the encounters he has with her have him thinking she is almost like a totally different person. After a tumultuous and public incident in the past, he wants nothing more than to keep a low profile.
Tasha and Jacoby bond over their love for video games and the attraction between the two is hard for them to ignore. Once Jacoby finds out the truth, he ends up becoming the only person Tasha can spend time with and feel like her true self. I found that while I really liked Tasha’s character, I was frustrated a few times when she struggled to maintain her sister’s personality.

So I really liked the concept of this book reading the blurb the storyline seemed so intriguing but unfortunately the execution of it let me down.
I liked the writing, and I liked the h, Tasha, but I really didn’t like the H Jacoby i felt he sometimes came across as childish.
I also felt like the story was rushed towards the end and felt like it was just wrapped up for the sake of finishing like the couples relationship is downplayed they say it’s only a crush on each other / flirting and then bam it’s suddenly declarations of love. There was no real development in their relationship or bonding and I didn’t really feel any chemistry between the two characters. Also with the ending i still had questions like what happened to sister? She’s like the villain in this story but we’re not really told what happens to her in the end.
This was the first Leddy Harper book I read and like I said before I liked her writing so I’ll probably try some of other books, but unfortunately I wasn’t a fan of this one.
Thank you Give Me Books for the ARC
