Wrong Twin

Rate this book
August
Harper Maxwell knows what she wants…and that has always been my twin brother Troy.

He doesn't deserve her. Never has. Not for the minute and a half they dated in high school and certainly not now. When the only thing on his mind is his pro hockey career and all the women jumping him at every corner.

Yet here she is, hoping to run into him at the season opener party. I wasn't gonna show. Not exactly my scene.
I'm more about hedge funds and suits than pucks and bunnies.

So what do I do when my brother tanks opening game and asks me to take his place to avoid the crowd?
And the girl I'd never been able to forget plants a kiss on my lips and tells me to meet her for a private party.

Harper
After tonight, Troy Hartman is going to be the one left with regrets.

shut up, this was SO GOOD!!

i was desperately waiting to read a book where i can feel the tension and emotions between the main characters and this book was IT.

august and harper were so good together. there was tension, jealousy, pining, lust and hope between them and i felt it through the pages. i was rooting for them throughout the book and was so eager to see how everything will play out in the end. their interactions made me giddy with excitement.

without giving away any spoilers cause roxanne’s romances are always filled with a touch of mystery that keeps me on the edge of my seat excited to see how things will fall into place, but the confusion and chaos of this story had me smiling and giggling throughout!

the writing was fabulous and i really wanted more of these characters, august, harper, troy and even all the side characters were entertaining and lively!

and the storyline was brilliant, THIS is the kind of unique and original and fun rom-com i want to read, this is what i expect from the romance novels and ᴡʀᴏɴɢ ᴛᴡɪɴ was that and so much more.

also this cover fits so perfectly with the story, it’s adorable and smug. and the artwork in between the pages was such a pleasant surprise!

i really adored the book, it was a breath of fresh air after a long time and my first and only five-star read this entire month! easily my top fave sports romance from the author. definitely recommend!!

Revenge is so sweet unless you've got the wrong guy.

Speechless. This title, blurb and queen of an author absolutely nailed it and reeled me in.

August and Harper's journey is compelling, beautiful and laced with undeniable love. However, don't be fooled there are some jaw dropping moments that pull on your heart strings and their history plays an impact.

August and Harper's history really plays havoc in the plot add in August's twin Troy and the truth comes out. I love how August jumps to help Troy and the emotional trauma Troy goes through is an emotional rollercoaster. But August comes to the rescue.

Their relationship between all three of them are complicated, BUT have no fear, truths come out, realisations made and your heart will be filled with LOVE.

This is such a heartwarming story that steals your heart. Roxanne is an absolute favourite of mine and this book jumps straight to my top reads of the year!

What a fabulous read!

The angst was just right, the attraction 😘 just the full package.

Written so well and had me hooked from the beginning.
Couldn’t get enough of August and Harper. Their interactions were great. I loved how protective August was of his twin. And Harper - loved her revenge pact, but she just couldn’t be that cruel….

Such a great story and loved this so much.

3.5 ⭐️ for me. Harper is out to get revenge on her high school crush from 5 years ago. This is my first issue with this book, if you hold a grudge for 5 years that’s just immature in my book. Grow the f up!! Unfortunately it’s not Troy but his twin August she ends up attempting this on. August is the quiet doesn’t like the spotlight twin. August and Troy played the swap twin game and now August is playing his spot on the hockey team amount other things. Harper does figure out early on that it isn’t Troy she’s been spending time with. When August finds out she knows, he assumes she was pretending because she still wanted Troy. So August breaks her heart and she decides to go off to a retreat. Of course August shows up once he’s decided he’s not ready to give her up. It takes a bit of groveling but she forgives him and by the end they’re married with a kid.

“It was nothing like kissing Troy five years ago. He’d matured. He was sexier than I remembered. His voice huskier and rougher. It stirred something in me that had no place there. Not anymore.”

This was a sweet romance with second-chances, mistaken identity, a revenge plan that doesn’t quite workout, all topped off with some ice-hockey! What more could you want?

I found whilst reading I was more drawn to August’s story for the first half, his lack of confidence in himself over his brother Troy, despite being the more successful of the twins. The book tends to focus more on Harpers story in the second half.

This is a slow burn with a low amount of heat, but there is plenty of angst and smexy tension between these two to tide you over.

A feel-good romance to add to your comfort reading list.

The name alone captured my attention to give this one a shot. Then, the author and her previously enjoyable stories got me again. But the blurb was the final nail in the coffin for me, and boy, was I left with feelings of pleasure and overwhelmed with delight!

𝙎𝙝𝙚’𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙢𝙮 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚, 𝙄’𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙙𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙖𝙮.

August and Harper's story was complex, especially considering their history and association. But they were ultimately made for each other, regardless of the hardships and obstacles placed in the way. Roxanne does an impeccable job with the side characters as well, grasping my attention until the end.

Wow, I was completely hooked. Wrong Twin will leave you I. Smiles and rooting for August and Harper. Harper is going into this party for one reason, revenge. Troy broke her heart and she’s ready for payback. But when Troy skips his own party, he sends his twin brother August in his place. And Harper doesn’t realize it’s him. These two together was amazing. I loved watching their journey develop as well as August bring a businessman playing a hockey player. So many laughs, emotions and steam throughout this book. The chemistry between all 3 of them as well as the tension and angst was perfect. Can’t wait to read what Roxanne has for us next.

Amazing hockey romance

Wrong Twin by Roxanne Tully is a hockey romanic conedy with a brother's ex twist thrown in. This follows the story of Harper and the twins Troy and August. I loved this story. The characters made me want to shake them at times. But it all works out for the best in the end.

Wrong Twin

This book came highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. I loved the innocence of Harper combined with the attitude of August. This was humourous, sweet, sexy and everything I love in a sports romance.

Wrong Twin is not my first Roxanne Tully book. I had no doubt that I would enjoy this story, I just had no idea how much I would! It was breathtakingly beautiful!

Harper wants revenge. And she's after Troy. Years ago he broke her heart. On a mission she goes, but little does she know it's Troy's twin brother August who's getting all of her 'attention' now.

This part of the plot was amazing! I read it with a sustained smirk on my face.

"You think you'll break me?"
"Not in a way you're not going to like!"


I enjoyed Harper, her sweet, purehearted personality really pulled at my heart, but I absolutely loved August, even when I wanted to tear my hair out in frustration with him being stubborn as a mule! But the guy had a soft side, he was always putting others first, and was misunderstood way too many times.

The writing was amazing, so captivating!

Wrong Twin was truly exceptional!

Oooo what a twisted tale Roxanne has woven with this story! I've only ever read one story involving twins in this way before and I can see it becoming a favourite storyline of mine. I loved the background between the characters it was messy and complicated and I was all for it. Wrong Twin took me on a roller coaster of emotions. I adored the brothers and I felt for both of them but ultimately August stole my heart. A really good read that had me hooked and didn't let go. Can't wait to see what Roxanne brings us next.

I always look forward to reading Roxanne Tully's books! I love her sports romance books so much! Her books and this one was just Amazing!
Harper and August's love story is worth the read—totally worth it!! Their book was full of angst and attraction and I was all for it! This book kept me hooked from the beginning until the very end as it was written so well! The characters were wonderfully written and had their own flaws that made each of them unique. And I can not forget about all the steam! Mmm!!
I seriously am hoping Troy gets his own book!
I highly recommend this book!! 5 ⭐️!!

Okay, so this was my first book by Roxanne Tully, and I adored it!!! The book definitely started off with a bang, when Harper thought August was Troy. The plot was original and amazing, and I was so hooked I read it in two straight hours. Harper and August completely stole my heart, and I loved them both individually and as a couple. Yes, there’s a lot of miscommunication here, but it’s all worth it in the end!!! I’ll definitely be looking into Roxanne Tully’s other books, and I definitely recommend this one!!!

The original version of Wrong Twin, published in Dec 2022, was the first book I read by Roxannne Tully. I was drawn to the promotional ads and thought the book description/plot sounded interesting (hockey, billionaire, revenge, wrong twin).

When I saw that this book had gotten a makeover with a new cover, tightening up and extra scenes, I wanted to give it another read.

Even though I find it hard to re-read books, I enjoyed this story. I now want to know which scenes are extra.

The grocery store mishap is still funny.... and the continuation of this scene during meal prep is hilarious.

Wrong Twin was fantastic and even more I fell so in love with August and Harper. I love August and how protective he is but I also enjoyed all three of them and their dynamics they are all flawed in some way or another and they are all trying to work out their issues but they needed to be confronted head on. I love the build up the chemistry these two have. Roxanne’s books are amazing and never disappoint. This book was SO hard to put down!

I really enjoyed the story and thought the plot was fun and interesting. I enjoyed the main characters and loved the chemistry between them. I found myself rooting for them throughout the entire book and there were moments I wanted to yell at August so he would have some common sense. It was a cute story with a fun plot and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

My first book from the author and it was so much fun reading about the twins and Harper.

I would have loved to know the parent's take on the relationship as they all seemed to be close.

I hope there will be more books from the characters and we will see more of August and Harper.

I am definitely be looking at other books from the author!

I loved watching Harper and August story unfold. I feel like they both helped each other to grow in different ways. The story is told in dual POV.
Overall, I really enjoyed it!

This book was such a fun and entertaining ride! I have never read anything like it and I enjoyed every minute if it! Who wouldn't like a little twin switcheroo?! August is of course the brooding, always in control brother that you could honestly die for. While Troy is the brother that never steps up and is always needing August's help. The dynamic between the twins will have you pulling at your heartstrings. It's not as easy as it seems and they both feel like the other gets exactly what they want. Harper is the girl who fell for the wrong twin in high school, never even noticing the right one. The push and pull between all of the characters were amazing. The full on angst and pit in your stomach feeling created from August and Harper was perfect. You could feel the tension and the absolute war going on in each of their heads. If you're looking for something not only different but just a blast to read, you've found it. You will go through every emotion and come out with a smile on your face. Loved this so much!

This is such a fun read. We meet August, the responsible twin, who enjoys his life just fine until her is forced to play his twin for a little bit. Troy is having a mental breakdown due to his failures at hockey that his brother gave up everything for him to have. While playing Troy August runs into Harper a girl they went to school with who has every reason to hate Troy. Thinking it is him Harper enacts her plan only things go awry as it puts these two in each others lives after that. Once she figures things out things really get good I must say. With plenty of bumps in the road to their HEA we get a tension filled fun romance that makes for a great afternoon read. Sure to delight fans of the genre. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.

Having read Ms.Tully's work before i've been wanting to get into more of her books! As soon as this one was announced it caught my eye right away and so did the teasers. I enjoyed it!

Harper and August's journey captured my attention right from the start! Harper is set on revenge and August is just trying to get through his brother's hockey team's party. Let's just say things happen in quite the memorable fashion.

I really liked the different way Harper and August were brought together. I didn't quite know what all to expect in this story which i enjoyed. Both Harper and August had me feeling many things throughout! I wasn't sure how these two would tackle things which got me even more into their story.

With Wrong Twin, Ms.Tully has created a good read that will have your attention quickly! I am so looking forward to more from this author!

I swear you can never go wrong when you pick up a Roxanne Tully book. Wrong Twin was fantastic and even more I fell so in love with August and Harper. I love August and how protective he is but I also enjoyed all three of them and their dynamics they are all flawed in some way or another and they are all trying to work out their issues but they needed to be confronted head on. I love the build up the chemistry these two have. Also can we talk about how basically every character in this book really was awesome the side characters were great and really made this story shine. I really did fall for Troy too in the end. Such a great read and another 5 star for me.

Wrong Twin by Roxanne Tully

This book was so good. I loved August and Harper they just fit. Oh stubborn protective August. It must say he did frustrate me for darn sure. I mean gone on August like I kept screaming at my phone “ come on just tell Harper it’s you and not Troy” ugh. But she could have called him out too I suppose. Then like I hated that he thought and felt he was any less than his brother that frustrated me and made me want to hug him. But any way back to this great book. These two they were just amazing and I loved everything about this book and happily recommend this book to everyone it’s a definite must read.
