Award-winning author Karina Bliss offers a sisters' twin swap story encompassing marriage drama, family conflicts, and wounded-warrior angst where love in all its many forms wins out in the end.

Playing with dynamite, a guy could get burned... Given his aversion to love and marriage, Ross Coltrane--an elite soldier and demolitions expert--has no idea how he ended up playing middleman to his kid brother and the estranged wife. More terrifying is suddenly noticing how sexy his sister-in-law is. He's never been attracted to his brother's wife that way before... But he's always had a spark with her twin.
Turns out the identical sisters have pulled a swap and duped everyone around them. Furious much? About to rain down retribution, Ross hesitates. Something about Vivienne Jansen's gutsiness and misplaced do-gooding gets to him. Except, he's not a guy who has feelings.

Enemies become lovers... Vivienne Jansen's creative solutions work well as an international costume designer, not so well as her family's black sheep. But she's going to save the day, if only her brother's best friend will move his disapproving Alpha-ness out of the way. Chaos theory has always been her modus operandi but falling for the enemy--a guy whose friends call him Iceman--could be the most dangerous thing she's ever done.

First published: 2011. Previously titled Stand-In Wife.

"Bliss might be my favorite contemporary romance author. Funny, earnest characters falling in love. This has kind of a madcap pace to it but I loved the vivacious Vivien and the wounded soldier, Ross. Perfect pairing."Jane Litte, Dear Author

"Twins switching is an old theme, but Karina Bliss makes it refreshing with a zany madcap romance. The support cast is a delight as they add madness to the wild comedic New Zealander comedy. Still the bottom line is the romantic subplot as Ross and Viv fall in love in a wonderful example of chaos theory at work." Harriet Klausner, Genre Go Round

"Well drawn characters and a fun story make for a lively read... And the attraction between Viv and Ross sparks." Romantic Times
