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!

This book is deeply emotional and is not a normal lighthearted read by RVD, it is heavy and deep and there are some major issues that the characters are going through here. While I highly enjoyed it, there overall theme did make me a little bit uncomfortable with how everything played out.

After a major accident to his estranged twin brother Julian, Bridge steps up to save the family company, even though no one knows who he is. This means acting like Julian not just in public, but also with his fiance. But what happens when lines are crossed? What happens when Bridge falls for Isobel and she falls for Bridge thinking that it is her sweet fiance coming back to her? What happens when Julian wakes up?

This book is a bit psychologically twisted. It was extremely entertaining, but not a normal romance. There are way too many factors at play in this and I was not sure how everything was going to end up until the very end. You cannot help but connect with the characters, but it still had a bit of wrongness to it since Isobel did not know that her fiance was actually his twin brother. Other than that, this book was engaging and kept you on the seat of your chair.

All in all, if you are down for a book that is deep but a bit twisted, I recommend you checking out Covet, I definitely want to see what is in store for the rest of the series! I give this a 4 outta 5 stars!

PS: Thank you to RVD and Social Butterfly PR for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly!

Wow. This is an intense story. You just can not put it down. It is emotional. It tears at your heart. I love the writing and I love the characters, even dear old dad, though I dislike him. Izzy or Isobel is probably my favorite character. I really love the uniqueness of the underlying story. Bridge is easy to fall in love with and I like that too. This book just sort of blows you away.

Bridge and Julian are twin brothers who was raised together until a nasty divorce. Bridge lived with his mother and Julian with his father. Julian has been trained to take over the father’s company one day until the unexpected happens, what will they do now? How will it effect the future? Julian has a beautiful fiancé but he’s not the man she fell in love with, will it ever change?

Plenty of family drama and secrets mixed up in this romance story. I felt Isobel was a bit naive at times and to not spot the differences between the two men. The writing as always with Rachel Van Dyken is excellent and flows smoothly, not my fave of her stories but i have really enjoyed the book and it was nice to have an easier read than other books i have read recently. FYI the dad in the story is horrible, totally a vile human!!! A romance where the secrets could spoil everything so keeps you on your toes and worrying what could go wrong

Another fantastic read delivered in true Rachel style!!
Stealing her keeps you gripped right from the start!!
A story full of angst, love, lust heartbreak and betrayal.

Both twins fighting for the life they deserve,but can ultimate betrayal be forgiven??

I absolutely loved this book ,brilliantly written to draw the reader into the story with fantastic characters, you will definitely swoon hard at bridge ahhh.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book. I absolutely love all of Rachel's books. That's why I grabbed this one without even reading the blurb. Having no idea what this book was about was the best way to go into this book because bit blew me away.
Isobel is tired of her fiancee Julian's late nights at the office and coming home smelling of perfume. Just when she has finally had enough and is going to break off their engagement he gets into a horrible accident and almost dies. When he comes stumbling back into the apartment making all kinds of promises and acting like the old Julian she thinks he has finally changed. Then she starts noticing all the physical changes. How did he change so much from just one accident?
I loved this book. It was amazing and can't wait for the next book in this series. I'm very patiently waiting. 5+⭐

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is a rollercoaster of emotions, switched identities, love, and twins! What more could you ask for in a book. Rachel definitely keeps you on your toes and pulls all the heart strings, makes you feel all the things. Amazing as usual for her books.

This has truly been, in my opinion, one of the best books Rachel has written!! She wrote amazing characters that broke your heart and then put it back together. The secretaries and angst is so powerful! The book didn’t go the way I thought it would, so that always means it is great writing. Not predictable and the last 3 sentences will leave you dying for book 2. Not a cliff hanger persay, but definitely a what just happened moment.

I think something that is so unique about this book and that makes it better is the fact that Rachel brought to light about a disease that is rare but her PA has. If you don’t know Jill Sava yet, you are missing out! She is a great person and I knew about her disease, but this book brought it so much more to light!

Great job RVD! This is 6 spectacular stars!

'm a HUGE fan of RVD's books. Her stories are always engaging and romantic. Stealing Her was a bit different that her usual Rom-Coms. It was definitely engaging, as I was hooked from the first page, but the romance was out of the ordinary. I loved Bridge and Izzy and was on the edge of my seat waiting for the proverbial other show to drop. Just like the characters, I went through every emotion....wanting Bridge and Izzy to get their HEA but feeling guilty about what they were doing to get that HEA. This story is as heartbreaking as it is romantic and there's more steam than in most of RVD's books. The epilogue was perfect and I can't wait to see what's next for the Tennysons!

Rachel Van Dyken in her latest book has shown that love can come at the least appropriate moment. She proved that the heart is not a servant, don't understand what loyalty or timing is. The Rachel's light pen, great characters and an unusual story — Stealing Her is a book with which I spent a really pleasant evening.

Rachel Van Dyken w swojej najnowszej książce pokazała, że miłość może przyjść w najmniej odpowiednim momencie. Udowodniła, że serce nie sługa, nie rozumie, czym jest lojalność czy wyczucie czasu. Lekkie pióro autorki, świetni bohaterowie i niecodzienna historia — Stealing Her to książka, z którą spędziłam naprawdę przyjemny wieczór.

Unfortunately, Stealing Her was my least favorite out of all of Rachel Van Dyken’s books I’ve read so far though overall, it was still an okay read.

In general, I just think the plot of this novel was a little far-fetched. It was a bit weird how the relationship of Isobel and Julian was pretty much over at the start of the book but once his twin brother Bridge had to step in for him after his accident and began treating Isobel a bit different from how he did, she’s suddenly ready to just take him back without a second thought.

Furthermore, it was quite unrealistic that Isobel didn’t figure out that the person she thought was Julian wasn’t actually him. Yes, the fact that he acted a bit differently towards her could’ve been explained by him coming to his senses following the accident. But the fact that Bridge was ripped while his twin brother was not and that he had tattoos Julian never had and that Isobel just assumed she hadn’t noticed him change in that way even though they’re married just felt wrong and weird. Especially because at the start of the book, she had been determined to not let people fool her or treat her like a doormat anymore. In my opinion, the ending then also wrapped up a little too easily and was a little too open. There was not really a scene in which what happened in the book was discussed properly and I also didn’t like how there was no proper conversation between the twins, especially considering that they hadn’t seen each other in more than a decade.

Nevertheless, I didn’t think this was a bad book. I actually started rooting for Bridge and Isobel as a couple at some point, even though him posing as his twin brother still left a bad taste in my mouth, and I’m also still a big fan of Rachel Van Dyken’s writing style. I might even check out the sequel to this book once it comes next year because I’m interested in seeing a different side of Julian.

First off this is a great read. I highly recommend it. In this book I got to read about these brothers and how they grew up. It was sad what happen to their family. Bridge works his butt off for his mom and himself. Julian tries everything in his power to make his dad proud. Isobel is stuck in the middle and there is no way out for her. Isobel tries everything in her power to keep their relationship alive and Julian is doing the opposite. Bridge and Julian's father is downright nasty and selfish. I don't want to give anything away. Julian is trying to survive his future. Their mother is trying to survive. Bridge is stuck in the middle and trying to protect them both. Isobel is sweet and trying to figure out what is happening.

I loved this story. It was a bit of a different style than other books by Rachel, but it was equally as good.

Pretending to be your twin can be fun when you are playing tricks on others. Being forced to pretend to be your twin when you haven't seen or spoken to them in a decade is a whole other story. Add in a love story and that is the basis of this book. It has a great plot twist that you expect to happen but never know when it will, so it keeps you on your toes.

Looking forward to the second book in this duet.
