Perfect Switch

by Lisa Plumley

Are you ready for the fantasy of a lifetime?

So asks the invitation Meredith Madison finds while house-sitting for her TV-star twin sister, Marley. Admittedly, her life could use a little —okay, a lot —more excitement. Glamorous, talented Marley has always owned the spotlight, leaving Meredith to fill the role of jeans-and-tee-shirt brainiac/wallflower. Weary of living in her sister's shadow, Meredith decides to grab the chance to step into Marley's Jimmy Choos. And when a limo arrives to carry her away to her "fantasy," the guy in the back seat is dream-come-true number one...

Entrepreneur Tony Valentine has spent his adult life avoiding Hollywood —yet here he is, trying to rescue his family's floundering movie studio. His idea for an actor fantasy camp is the perfect plan...but something isn't right about his headlining celebrity instructor, Marley Madison. Sure, stars sometimes dress down, but she looks a tad too familiar with the softer side of Sears. The woman's klutzy, awkward, and adorable. This can't really be Marley...can it? Whoever she is, she's going to have to charm the wealthy "campers" into believing her act. If they're anything like Tony, they'll find her irresistible...

This is the story of Meredith Madison who accidently on purpose switched places with her twin sister Marley Madison the glamorous TV-Star and meets Tony Valentine who has never wanted anything less than to be near Hollywood or anything Hollywood, but because of some family trouble he is smack dab in the middle of it all...

It was very easy to fall in love with Meredith not the brainiac part as listed on the back of the book but the jeans-and-a-tee shirt wallflower that would be me... And Tony well I was in love with Tony the minute he said Going Someplace, princess?


This was a great follow up to Perfect Together!!!

This book was cute. Made for a quick read, light hearted. You're able to get into the characters and understand them and really enjoy the book without being bogged down. Great book for reading at work. Not too much thinking required.

A cute tale of mistaken identity. Marla's twin sister decides to trade places without her knowledge. It is very difficult for her to pretend she's an actress but eventually gets the hang of it but doesn't entirely fool everyone.

[Melissa (Semi Hiatus Until After the Holidays) · Rating 2 out of 5]

The historian twin sister of an actress takes her place at an acting fantasy camp. Not very believable romance.

[Eva · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute read. Fun idea about sister taking her sister's place and succeeding in the end. Romance was a bit too much and unbelievable.
