Stand-In Bride's Seduction

A The Heart's Truth Story

To quell his grandfather’s fears of a 300 year old curse coming to fruition, the del Castillo brothers have agreed to marry or become engaged to appease the old man. All Reynard de Castillo had been looking for with Sara Woodville was an open-ended engagement with no prospect of seeing it into marriage.

Stinging from the fresh wounds of a broken engagement, Sarina Woodville accepts her identical twin sister’s invitation to join her on Isla Sagrado, but on her arrival she finds herself involuntarily masquerading as her twin. Unwilling to take part in the charade, Rina is determined to tell Sara’s fiancé the truth, but a family medical emergency means wealthy Reynard de Castillo needs his loving fiancée at his side and what is Rina to do but to play along?

Rey is puzzled by his fiancée’s sudden apparent skill set. The Sara he knows wouldn’t have set foot inside a hospital for more than five minutes, let alone see to it that comfortable seating was provided for his grandfather and meals and decent coffee be made available to family members during their round the clock vigils for his injured brother. The Sara he sees now ignites something in him that makes him want to know her more intimately but when they kiss he is irrevocably certain that the woman in his arms is not Sara Woodville.

Determined to discover what kind of game the sisters are playing and wary of yet another attempt to fleece his family, Rey decides to play along. After all, there’s the matter of his frail grandfather’s obsession with the curse to take into consideration, not to mention the searing attraction that flares between him and fake-Sara whenever they’re together. Rina is struggling to hold it together. Her sister has stopped communicating and Rina fears she is on the brink of doing the worst thing possible—falling in love with her sister’s fiancé!
