Loved this book! Great story & great characters. Very well written & hooked me from the start. I can't wait to read more from Rachel Van Dyken.

This was a great book! I really enjoyed the premise and I was super invested from the beginning. I loved the characters and there was the perfect amount of steam.

This story pulled me in and kept me entertained. I got wrapped up in Izzy, Bridge, and Julian’s story, however it all felt a little far fetched to me. I question how she couldn’t tell them apart, especially since there were so many differences and he suddenly started acting different.

It is well written and entertaining though. So if you can overlook the faults (to me it’s mainly the lack of recognizing the twin) then I’d say give this a chance.

Great storyline that I was thrilled to dig into. Who doesn’t love a good twin swap? I love RVD but this wasn’t my favorite from her. The setup was terrific but for me there were too many unbelievable parts and I didn’t really feel the connection between Izzy and Bridge and it took too long to get to the goodie parts of their relationship. There was a lot of convincing in the beginning that Izzy wasn’t a gold digger (which she wasn’t) and I really liked that she was all soft and heartfelt. Bridge as the strong twin willing to sacrifice for his family really went above and beyond. What a hero! The villainous dad was despicable. Ugh! It seemed out of character for him to taking in Isobel when he threw away his son. I had mixed feelings about Mom. Overall it was an intriguing story with some ups and downs and a good ending. I am interested to see were Julian’s story goes..

4.5 stars
Drop everything your dong and grab this book. This is my new favorite by Rachel Van Dyken. She pulled me in, once I started I couldn’t stop until I finished. This book was filled with all the angsty goodness I love.

Bridge and Julian are identical twins. Things get a little crazy when Jillian is fighting for his life in a coma. His brother Bridge steps in to help run the company he loves and take care of his fiancé. Things are going as good as can be while pretending to be his twin brother until the lines get blurred and he falls for his brother’s fiancé.

That’s all I’m going to say about this book. I don’t want to ruin it for anyone. This is a must read!

Another great book!!! I love anything Rachel Van Dyken writes! She never disappoints me. Her storytelling astounds me!! Can't wait for her next book!!

When I read the book description of ‘Stealing Her’ and saw that beautiful looking cover I just knew I wanted to read this book. So I was super excited when I received an ARC and started reading as fast as I could.

‘Stealing Her’ was from the start a read I couldn’t put down. There was just something about the way ‘Rachel Van Dyken wrote this story, that made me want to keep on reading just so I could find out what was happening next. And the main part that kept me hooked was the whole twin brothers part. I mean twins having feelings for the same girl. It sounded horribly complicated! But I still wanted to know what was going to happen.

The two main characters Isobel and Bridge where very fun characters that I enjoyed getting to know better. Bridge was this handsome, hardworking guy who just wanted to take care of his sick mother. And although Isobel’s character was one I wanted to kick at times, just to help her ‘wake’ up and stand up for herself, there was also something about her that made me like her.

The romance was pretty sweet, but mostly a little weird because of the whole twin thing and I found myself enjoying this read, but not loving it as much as I’d like. There was just to much stuff that felt a little off. I mean, if a guy is suddenly totally different in the way he acts and the way he looks.. I just can’t imagine someone fallen for that.

But overall I had fun reading ‘Stealing Her’ and I was pretty surprised by the way things ended. If you’d tell me I could start reading the next book in the series, I would definitely do that.

Obviously I'm in the minority, but I didn't like it. My suspension of disbelief for the set up just wasn't there, and I couldn't connect to any of the characters. I could see how it was going to play out and I skimmed a lot. I love other RVD books, this one just didn't work for me.

Thank you Rachel for another great book!! I literally sat and read most of this book in one day. I had to know what was going to happen and couldn’t put it down. It did help that I actually had a day to sit and read. ;).

It is so true that your life can take a turn in a blink of an eye. That is what happened to Bridge/Julian & Isobel. But mostly to Bridge. Bridge and Julian are identical twins. Best friends to one another. Bridge always protecting Julian and Julian always talking Bridges stuff. Until one day, they’re not.

Bridge and Julian are completely different in their adult life than when they were younger. But due to circumstances, one of them has to become the other. And Isobel is in the middle of it all. Not sure what to believe and how her life had turned out the way it had? But she is strong and persevere’s.

This book grabs you right from the beginning and will hold your interest all the way to the end. It is full of surprises, emotions and what the ... moments. Rachel has a way to bring you in the story so that you’re right there all side of the character’s. You feel their pain and happiness. I love that about her writing! This is the first book in the covet series. I can’t wait for book two. You will not be disappointed in this book. A must read for sure!!!

During his youth, Bridge defended his twin brother, Julian, from bullies. His father would be more than disappointed in Bridge because he would get suspended as result. Bridge never told his father Julian was being bullied because he would think less of Julian.

Bridge promises Jules that he will always be there for him. But, at fourteen, the tables turn and the brothers are separated. Bridge must go with his mom, at this dad’s request since he believes Bridge is a trouble maker, and Jules with his dad. The problem? Jules is very impressionable and fears his father.

Years later, after Julian has an accident and is in a coma, Bridge’s father finally makes an appearance. He wants Bridge to act as Julian to close business deals and to continue doing so in all aspects of Julian’s life. This includes Julian’s fiancée, Isobel.

Lines become blurred and what was a sham has now become real. Not only does Bridge want to take over his father’s business, he wants Isobel as well!

Can he have it all? Or, will he once again lose it all?

Holy crap! This book got its tentacles in me and did not let go! I was consumed with Izzy, Bridge and Julian. I was on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next. Absolutely everything was eclipsed as I read this book.

I had so many feels when it came to Bridge. He is honest and hardworking and yet, he is eventually put in an untenable position of his own making. He loves his brother’s fiancée and he would love to mend fences with his brother as well.

I can’t wait for the next book in the series!

I received an ARC via NetGalley of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Talk about being in an impossible position. Bridge tries his best to rise above the hurt and disappointment. To be anyone other than a copy of his dad and sadly also his brother. When he meets Isobel he is determined to show her that she is a priority. He is driven by love and guilt through the whole ordeal. Isobel is driven more than anything by hope. Even when she has been hurt over and over by the one person she loved and trusted. But at some point they re-discover in the other a sense of safety and completeness. There is no way they both can turn away from that, from each other. This is a complicated but intriguing story. Feels way out there but very well delivered. And it's like that mostly because it's not the "fairy tale happily ever after". It's the "we can be good but we need to work hard at it and only time will heal" kind of book.

Wow, the blurb made it sound amazing and then reading it, it did not disappoint. Bridge gets an offer he can't refuse despite his hatred for his dad. He just has to pretend to be his twin brother until he wakes up. Throw in Julian's fiancee Isobel and it changes everything....love wasn't supposed to be part of the equation.

Bridge you can't help but love him throughout this entire store, and his conflicting emotions...he really wants to do right by Isobel and yet, he is drawn to her. Isobel I wish was stronger and had actually left Julian BUT then we wouldn't have had this story. She just believes that she isn't remembering things when it comes to "Julian" and I really wish he had told her the truth sooner, but again, we have dear ole' Dad pulling the strings.

Julian is different then what Bridge thought and yet there is so much more I want to know about him, and I hope in the next book that is exactly what we get. I wish the dad had at least one redeeming quatlity but he is such a good bad guy.

This book gives you drama, romance, the idea of "forbidden" and really waiting for the other shoe to drop throughout this gripping story. You will be sucked into this world and will honestly be conflicted and you will never be happier that you were.

This is a great start to another new series from RVD. It had me hooked from beginning to end, unable to put it down even when I was reading in bed and kept hitting myself in the head with my kindle as I was so tired but I just didn't want to put it down.

I loved Bridge and Izzy, the connection between them is instant and off the charts hot. Considering Bridge is her fiancé's twin brother she knew nothing about, I loved watching the questioning going on in Izzy's head. She must have thought she was going insane with the changes to the man she thought she knew. My heart broke for Bridge as he was falling in love with the girl he shouldn't.

They were in this situation thanks to a car crash and I was constantly waiting for another crash to happen, when the truth comes out. Will they get what their hearts want or will they lose everything? As the book went on I was honestly getting very anxious and heaven help anyone that interrupted my reading!!

Another great read from RVD

I haven't been a RVD follower for long, but with each new book I have the privilege of reading I fall deeper into her world and fall more in love with each new character. Her writing is fierce and the characters she develops are one of a kind.

In Stealing Her we get the story of estranged twin brothers and the girl that comes between them during a most unfortunate series of events. While Julian is in a coma and healing from his accident, Bridge his estranged brother steps in to take on the life of Julian until he can return as CEO of the family company. What Bridge didnt agree too or expect as an outcome of taking on his brothers life was how deeply he would fall for Julian's fiance. Lizzy has no idea Julian isnt Julian and as she begins to fall in love with her fiance all over again, Bridge realizes he is doing the opposite of the one thing he swore to Julian all those years ago, protect him. As the two fall deeper into one another, what will happen if and when Julian returns? This book pulled me in from the start and surprised me along the way. RVD is a genius and story after story she surprises me with each new adventure.

This story reminded me of the Prince and the Pauper, but as a romance. Good twin takes over the life of the rich, bad one. The premise is a stretch, the ethics are quite murky, and the characters—especially the bad guys—a bit one-dimensional. It is, however, a fun read. As you're thinking, nah!, really?!, come onnn, you're still turning the page to find out what happens next.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Ladies and Gentlemen, she does it again. I have so many things running through my mind. What will come next? Only she knows but I'm definitely ready to find out.

Twins separated by their dad’s greed, once brothers now strangers, they will have to trust each other in order to survive.

Bridge has hated everything related to his father’s family as far as he can remember. His dad broke his mom and he is sure he has now broken Jules too. He promised to protect them both, but he has failed him and now the time has come for him to stay true to his words and save Jules world and dream, if it’s the last thing he does.

But making a deal with the devil has its price, and he is soon to learn that sometimes the price might be too high, and he might lose everything he was trying to protect.

Isobel is going insane, that is the only explanation she can come up with. He is not the same guy she has gotten used to, there’s a different light coming from him, he touches her soul in a way that he has never done before. Could a life-threatening accident have brought back the love of her life? An even better version than the one she originally met? Why does it feel as if it is a different love altogether?

How can Julian forgive them for the ultimate betrayal, even though they went in with their eyes closed?

Their father’s plan might to destroy them both is in motion, and it’s up to them to make the next inning move.

Secrets, love and lust make this story and amazing one to say the least. Rachel has done it again, she has created a drama we can’t stay away from, and I can’t wait to read the next book.

What a crazy storyline that I couldn’t get enough of! Bridge and Julian are twins who have always supported each other but when divorce breaks their family apart, they are separated as well. As time goes on, the pair drift apart and have no relationship, with Bridge taking care of their sick mother and Julian following in their father’s footsteps. Everything changes when Julian is in a car accident and ends up in a coma, and their father’s company takes a hit. In a ploy to recoup the loss, their father gives Bridge the offer of a lifetime – to pay for all their mother’s medical bills and more. Taking Julian’s place, Bridge is to tell nobody of his true identity, including Julian’s fiancé Isobel. While Isobel is unhappy in her relationship with Julian and breaking off the engagement, that all changes when the accident occurs and he comes back a changed man. While Isobel thinks something is different and can’t determine why he has changed, she goes along with everything, even falling back in love. But when Isobel finds out that she’s been falling back in love with the other twin, and Julian’s prognosis changes, it creates a world of chaos in and out of the public eye. This was such a great storyline and I couldn’t get enough of trying to figure out what Julian’s master plan was as well as getting back at their father. This was an epic book and I can’t wait to get Julian’s story next!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I went into this book thinking I wasn’t going to like it. I’m a twin mom and after reading the description and the epilogue I was more angry then intrigued. I absolutely love Rachel Van Dyken books so I continue, I was blown away. I think this in my top five of Rachel’s books. It was full of angst but also greatness. You easily fall in love with the story and the characters. I had a hard time putting it down. I read this book and then listened to the audio I like it that much. A definitely a must read and I can’t wait to read the other books in this series.

I was immediately drawn to this book by the gorgeous cover. Plus, once I read the blurb, I knew I had to read Stealing Her.

I’ve loved so many Rachel Van Dyken books. She can write so many different genres so perfectly. The whole twin switch is one that’s been done before, but never like this. It’s a great book that will suck you in from the very beginning.

Bridge and Izzy were great. My heart even went out to Julian. In my heart, I believe that he’s not the villain he’s portrayed.

Wonderful new characters that I want to read mire of!
