Editoral Review
Marie Kelly’s “Kidnapped the Wrong Sister” is a contemporary romance novel that deals with themes of mistaken identity, betrayal, and forbidden love. Originally published on February 14, 2010, the book explores the complex relationship between seductive Dominique and her twin sister, determined yet vulnerable Abigail.
Set in the sprawling city of Paris, the novel follows the adventures of Abigail, who is mistaken for her twin sister Dominique by billionaire businessman Blake. He kidnaps Abigail, believing her to be Dominique, in an attempt to get revenge on her for her cruel betrayal of his sister.
As Blake and Abigail spend time together, an unexpected attraction blooms between them, complicating their already dangerous situation. Marie Kelly’s prose is vivid and evocative, bringing the romantic streets of Paris to life.
Her characters are well-drawn and multi-dimensional, with Dominique and Abigail coming across as polar opposites despite their twin status. The book’s pacing is excellent, with the tension mounting steadily until the explosive climax.
However, “Kidnapped the Wrong Sister” is not without its flaws. The plot relies heavily on the trope of mistaken identity, which may feel overused for readers who are familiar with the genre.
Additionally, some of the romance scenes may come across as slightly contrived or melodramatic. Despite these flaws, “Kidnapped the Wrong Sister” is an engaging read with a lot to offer fans of contemporary romance.
The book’s themes of forgiveness, redemption, and acceptance make it a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of the human condition. Overall, I would recommend “Kidnapped the Wrong Sister” to readers who enjoy steamy romance novels with well-crafted settings and characters.
While it may not break any new ground in terms of plot, the book is a satisfying and enjoyable read that will leave readers feeling emotionally satisfied. I would give this book a rating of 8 out of 10.
