Morgan All she was supposed to do was step into her twin’s perfect life for a little while and take an opportunity to be the fun one for once. To know what it felt like to really live. The last thing she ever meant to do was fall for her sister’s husband. How can something that is so wrong feel so right? Jasen His wife had become almost like a roommate over the past few years. The distance between them had been insurmountable. Until recently. Something about her is … different. She’s warmer, softer somehow. Jasen is shocked to find himself falling in love with his gorgeous wife all over again. But… is she really his wife?
When tragedy strikes, Morgan is forced to choose between continuing the lie and owning up to her deception. Doing the right thing could mean losing the only man she’s ever loved, but can a relationship built on betrayal ever truly last? More importantly, will Jasen even want her when he learns the truth—or will the price of forgiveness simply be more than he’s willing to pay?
My Thoughts...
I found The Deceptive Twin to be easy to read, fun to read, I read it quickly and loved every word. The dynamic between Morgan and Monroe was different. Usually, twins are super close but these two lived entirely different lives and did not get along so well. When Monroe asks Morgan to take over for her there was no doubt that sparks would ignite between Morgan and Jasen. I loved watching Morgan try to put herself out there as Monroe without giving up the values that she has lived her entire life by.
Jasen was interesting. He wanted his marriage to work so badly that he overlooked all the clues that something was off about his wife. I loved that he wanted it to work but I did wonder how he could miss all the clues that Morgan was giving off. His reactions as the story continued and things changed between him and Morgan were spot on. They were realistic and true to what he really wanted in life.
Feeling her life is at a standstill, Jill McCallister jumps at the chance to visit Morgan’s Grove, the town founded by her great-great-great-grandfather. Eager to discover her roots and do research for a new book, she drives from Colorado to Texas, excited to meet the inhabitants of her grandfather’s legacy.
Jill immerses herself in the charming community, enjoying the residents and their quirky traditions. When she meets the mysterious Rick Wright, she almost forgets she’s sworn off men, but she’s not willing to risk getting too involved, especially since she will be returning home in a few weeks.
When the winter festival kicks into high gear, Jill and Rick are thrown together to work on a project, and sparks soon fly. Although she fights it, Jill can’t help falling hard for his soulful eyes and flirty smile. But as tempting as Rick is, he’s hiding something, and the mystery writer in Jill is determined to discover his secret.
With the clock running out on her time in Morgan’s Grove, Jill needs to decide what “home” really means to her.
My Thoughts...
I love a good small town, sweet contemporary romance story. Traci Borum wrote exactly what I was looking for. Jill is an author struggling to find her next story, Rick is a successful man who has realized that being successful is not all that he wants in life. As their friendship grows, their feelings develop, and they both find what is important to them.
The small town of Morgan Grove is rich in history and full of wonderful citizens. I love how the citizens were quick to share their stories, tell their histories, and accept Jill into their town. Morgan Grove is also home to Jill’s ancestors. She arrives to find out more about her ancestors and learns so much more than she expected.
Love Starts Here is a fun story. It was easy to read, quick to fall into, and had a story that was perfect for a summer read.

I really enjoyed that they had a happy history together. That they loved each other and had many happy adventures and memories. This helped them rebuild their relationship because they had such a strong friendship base. They did not forget what had happened in the past, but they talked about it, argued about it, and then realized that the past did not have to stop them from finding the happily ever after.
