While I love the author and have really enjoyed others in her Wrong/Right series, this one wasn’t my favorite. I found it hard to reconcile how the dislike between Amanda and Noah morphed so quickly into them almost being obsessed with each other after a make out session or two.
Neither character really captured my interest enough to root for the pairing. As the last of the group to get paired off, I think Amanda got short changed in the storyline department...or maybe she never impressed me in her cameos in other books (I don’t remember her in them) and I just wasn’t invested enough in her HEA.
The writing is all there, it was just a case of the main characters not being what I’d hoped they be. I’ll continue to read Rebecca Brooks’ work, because I really do enjoy her work.

While I’m not usually a fan of third-person omniscient type writing, I really enjoyed this story. I probably would have liked it better if it was first person because I like being inside the main characters heads more thoroughly than third person gives us, but that was really my only complaint. The characters were entertaining and had interesting chemistry. The story was engaging and flowed nicely. Overall I liked it a lot! My first by this author and I’d definitely recommend this and wouldn’t mind reading more of her work.

Amanda and Noah don't like one another. And, that's fine, as Amanda is interested in his brother Luke.

Or is she?

Well, both of them get the surprise of their lives when it's not Luke in the room she sneaks into for a little "after work" playtime.

I loved the premise of this one. I loved the idea of the obsession with the one brother blinding Amanda to Noah and the attraction that she had for him.

Unfortunately, I stopped buying in to this one in the middle. I thought there was too much focus on how much they didn't like one another and it got in the way of the development of the story and their relationship. I wanted more of them together, not more of them sleeping together and stating that they didn't really like one another.

Overall, while there were parts of this that I enjoyed, I am not able to recommend this title.

A good romance book, quick read. Very fluffy haha Overall I enjoyed it, though some parts did lag for me. If you like romance than I definitely suggest picking this one up!

Absolutely loved this book. It hit all the right feels. Amanda choosing Noah was quite unexpected. Though Noah was the real surprise. He didn't like Amanda at all. But once he had a taste he was willing to take what she offered. They were unlikely lovers. But they seemed so right for each other I am about half way done. hope to finished this very soon.

Accidental love 💕

Wrong bed, right brother is a story about Amanda who has a crush on Luke, whom she works with. When they go away, his identical twin brother, Noah joins them. She doesn’t get along with Noah very well, but when she finds herself in bed with him and not Luke....things change quickly between them😁

This is the first time I’ve read anything by Rebecca. The story itself was good and I enjoyed the characters as well but it was missing something else, perhaps a little more on the humorous side but still an enjoyable read even though I personally think it could’ve used a bit more humour especially when they find themselves in bed together accidentally🤷‍♀️

I received an advanced copy via Netgalley and thank the publisher and author for the chance to voluntarily leave my honest review❣️

I had so much fun reading this story. The author did an amazing job here and what an emotional, fun and lovable couple they were. This is my first book from the author, but there is no way I’m not going to read her previously stories from the series.

Amanda always had a crush with Luke, her coworker. Now that he is leaving New Yorker to move to LA with his “evil” twin brother Noah and they are all spending the weekend together, she can’t miss her chance and make a move on him. And oh my... she decides to go to his room at night, only to find Noah there!

Noah had a difficult breakup with his long time girlfriend Kristina and now he is ready to begin a new chapter in LA with his brother. Until Amanda jump in his bed thinking he was his brother. As they both drive this hate to love relationship we readers are faced with a lot of crazy and funny situation with this duo.

I could feel with every chapter Noah’s conflict wether he should still move to LA and give up his life in NYC (and Amanda) or stay and fight for happiness. And sometimes it was kind of heartbreaking for him, he was so lost. And they both start to get to now each other and their perception quickly change, even if they really didn’t want in the beginning.

I loved Amanda a lot. She was so strong and sure of herself, except on love, she never had a serious relationship and always something got wrong with the suitors. And I thought of her to be so relatable, which made me like her even more. Once she had something of her mind, there is no way in changing, so she fight for everything she wants and now that she really knows Noah and Luke, and how their roles reversed, she really wants Noah.

Ohhh the things we do for love! I enjoyed the ending and wouldn’t change a thing. My only reservation with this book was that sometimes it had too much inner-dialogue, I wish it had more talking with each character.

I really wasn't feeling this one at all. I felt that there wasn't enough chemistry between the main characters. There was no great buildup with the romance here and I was a little in whiplash with how she went from crushing on one brother to the next especially when we really haven't seen that much of the relationship between the two of them.

I've been seeing the Accidental Love books by Rebecca Brooks constantly and been intrigued. Once I saw that the premise of this book was enemies with benefits, I knew I would be thoroughly enjoying it... and I wasn't wrong!

Amanda and Noah have this amazing chemistry. Too bad Noah isn't Luke, the guy Amanda really wants, who is Noah's twin. The more she's around Noah (and kissing Noah), the less enemy they become. I loved seeing the dynamic of their relationship go through all those changes.

Wrong Bed, Right Brother is a perfect escape with the best mistaken identity in the bedroom moment. Be ready to laugh and swoon!

Amanda has been crushing on her coworker, Luke, for quite some time. But in six weeks Luke is going to move from New York to LA with his twin. If Amanda wants a shot with him, she’ll have to take it while on a weekend getaway with Luke and some others. But when Amanda sneaks into what she thinks is Luke’s room she finds herself in bed with Luke’s twin, Noah. Noah couldn’t be more different from his charming brother; he and Amanda are like oil and water. But Amanda’s mistake cracks something open in their antagonistic relationship and suddenly neither Amanda nor Noah can resist the pull between them. But Noah is leaving in six weeks and the two of them don’t even like each other, so nothing can happen…right?

Wrong Bed, Right Brother is a sexy and fun good time. Enemies-to-lovers isn’t my favorite trope but in this case it works oh-so-well. Amanda and Noah have seriously hot chemistry and I loved watching the sparks fly as their mutual attraction opened the door to something much deeper.

One of my favorite things about this story was watching Amanda realize how what she thought she wanted wasn’t what she really needed. Luke is a delightful fantasy: a charmer and a flirt who has a natural ease about him. He gets away with being self-centered because he’s hot and personable. Noah, by contrast, is quieter, organized, and has a more rigid personality. But there’s so much more beneath the surface. He and Amanda click from the start and the sparks that fly are fantastic to watch. But what made me really fall for Wrong Bed, Right Brother were the quieter moments, the conversations where Amanda and Noah realize that even though they’re so different they complement each other perfectly.

But just because they’re well suited doesn’t mean things are easy for Amanda and Noah. Amanda has had bad luck with men and her mother has pounded it into her head that she can’t trust them. And Noah fears that he’s Amanda’s second choice. There’s also added tension from Luke and the fact that Noah is scheduled to move across the country. A happily ever after requires risk in this story: risking your heart, risking trusting someone, depending on them. I was here for it from beginning to end. All the ups and downs were worth it because the romance just worked for me. In Wrong Bed, Right Brother Rebecca Brooks has delivered a fast-paced, wonderfully addictive, sexy as hell romance that I can’t wait to revisit.

This is a book about possibilities. Amanda is a dreamer. Her dream leads her into an unexpected relationship. Noah is in a transitional period of his life. The story depicts two very ordinary people who find each other and despite all the many obstacles in their way, they manage to overcome them and find lasting love. It is steamy and filled with witty banter as the characters argue their points.

Amanda is at a weekend getaway with some friends and coworkers. And one of them is Luke, the guy she has been crushing on since long. Soon he will be moving across the country and their last night at the cottage seems like the best opportunity to make her feelings known.
Just when things start turning steamy, Amanda realizes she is in bed with Noah, Luke’s twin. She doesn’t even like Noah, and this is not supposed to happen. But it seems that a switch has been turned on between them and keeping hands off each other is proving to be impossible.
I really liked Amanda and Noah, they are such cute and endearing characters. Their romance was enjoyable with sweet, funny moments and really intense chemistry. A feel good read.

Amanda has been in love with her co-worker for three years. He acts like he’s interested, but never takes it further. Now he’s planning to move to California with his twin brother Noah, and she needs to make her move before he leaves in a few weeks. A bunch of their friends rent a cottage for the weekend as an end of summer celebration. Amanda makes the decision to go into Luke’s room that night and tell him how she feels. As she slips into his room and bed, Amanda didn’t imagine the kissing would be this good. Everything she’s feeling is amazing, until she calls out his name, and he jumps out of the bed so fast Amanda is stunned. When he turns on the light in the room, it turns out she’s been in bed with Noah! Huh, she was really turned on with Noah, and Amanda is having a hard time adjusting to this thought. Agreeing to never talk about this again, she goes back to her room.

While they are having lunch the next day at a restaurant that sits in a farm, it happens again. Except this time Noah approaches her and they make out in the back of the barn. What is going on! They can’t stand each other!

Noah, is an extremely organized individual that plans everything. He coaches people training for marathons and those that are rehabilitating from an injury. The last few days his mind has been on the sexy Amanda, and keeps reminding himself that he can’t stand, but for some reason is drawn to her. Occasionally when he trains by the office where his brother works, he stops by and they go for a beer. However, when he sees Amanda, all he wants is to take her into a conference room and have his way with her. As soon as she gets up, he follows her and follows thru on it. It seems they can’t get enough of each other.

Now they are seeing each other on the sly, neither one of them wanting Luke to know. As weeks go by and the time for his move to California approaches, Amanda realizes she’s fallen in love with Noah. What’s going to happen after he leaves, will everything fall apart, what if she tells him her feelings have changed. Will he still leave or maybe stay in New York.

This is the first book I’ve read in this series. I definitely plan on reading the rest! Excellent story!

Amanda has had a crush on her co-worker Luke since forever. In six weeks his moving across the country with his twin brother Noah. They're staying with friends at a house upstate and Amanda decides that its time to make something happen. So she sneaks into his room.

She gets into bed with him and he pulls her close and they start kissing but when she moans Luke's name he jumps out of bed. Turns out its Noah. And they hate each other.

These two had good chemistry especially those first few hook-ups! Those were fire. And though they both know that it shouldn't have happened they can't seem to fight the attraction.
They both had their issues but find a way to work through these issues before its too late.

This is the fourth book in the Accidental Love series

I received an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Amanda has had a crush on her co-worker Luke for years, so she decides to seize her opportunity to make her feelings clear on a weekend away by sneaking into his room at night. The only problem? He's switched with his twin brother, Noah. And Noah and Amanda do not get on,
Amanda wants to put it down to a stupid mistake, but there's something about her chemistry with Noah that she can't deny.

You know what you're getting into with something like this, and Wrong Bed, Right Brother delivers exactly what it claims to. A steamy romance story, with a few hurdles along the way. It's an easy read which could have done with a little more plot and character development. I didn't warm to the characters as much as I sometimes do with romance novels.

2.5 stars.

I was intrigued by the blurb on this book and the author is new to me, so I was really excited to start this one. Amanda has a crush on her co-worker, so in an act of bravery one night jumps into bed with him, but lo and behold, it turns out to be his twin brother, who actually really dislikes her. But....they end up having some sizzling chemistry and one thing leads to another and they keep having these physical encounters despite the fact that they never really seemed to get along.

Wrong Bed, Right Brother was a cute and fun enemies to lovers story. There was definite chemistry between Amanda and Noah. I do wish there was some more depth to their relationship over time. I guess I still felt like maybe something was missing or it jumped from casual fling to I love you at the end of the book too quickly. I would like to read more from the author to get a better sense of the author's writing style, but I did find this book to be enjoyable.

When the Wrong Brother Turns Out To Be The Right Mistake…

Amanda finally got the guts to make the move. Too bad for her that she moved on the wrong twin! I loved the irritated-hate energy between Amanda and Noah right from the start. They both felt like the other was the interloper in their relationship with Luke, and once Luke was off the table, out of the picture, and out of sight, it was on! The slow unfolding of feelings after an initially white-hot attraction felt natural. Both Noah and Amanda had hang ups and baggage from the past that also interfered with their willingness to be vulnerable. Watching Amanda take the lead to push things forward was a refreshing change from the usual hero’s romantic gesture to win the girl. She is the true heroine in the end, with a little push from friends and the encouragement from an all too willing subject of her affections. I loved this from start to finish! Highly recommended. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

One mistake opens up a whole lot of hidden feelings!

Amanda thinks she's attracted to her friend and co-worker, Luke, but one mistake finds her in the arms of his brother, Noah, who is as surprised as she is that they both enjoyed it so much! Their chemistry is undeniable, and I was completely drawn into their delicious push-pull as they figure out if there's more to their attraction than just lust.

I loved the way the author focused on authentic, sometimes heartbreaking, emotions and how even the most direct relationship is still complicated by self-doubts and learned patterns. The main conflict ends up being more about the fast-approaching day of decision when Noah is planning to move across the country, but it's used beautifully as a catalyst to get them both to confront their fears and take a chance with their hearts.

Their HEA was wonderful, and the epilogue was everything I could hope for. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
