ARC Review - The Blonde Identity

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Spice: 🌶️🌶️

If you ever read the Gallagher Girls series when you were younger and were absolutely obsessed, then this one is definitely a MUST. It was basically adult Gallagher Girls, and the wave of nostalgia I felt over the writing and humor hit me with such a force, and I just felt so much joy.

She wakes up in the snow in Paris and doesn’t remember anything, not even her own name. Next thing she knows, there’s a hot guy standing over her and telling her to run. People are shooting after her and it’s basically the scene of an action film. Turns out Mr. Hot Guy is a spy. And so is she.

Or rather, her twin sister is, but since they are identical, and everyone is after her twin, now they’re after her. In what unfolds to be a quick pace, witty rom-com, about a grumpy spy who learns to feel again and a bright and optimistic amnesiac who is just trying to remember as she runs from the bad guys, their misadventures will have you feeling serious one moment and laughing the next sentence. Tropes this book (brilliantly) uses are mistaken identity, enemies to lovers (to enemies to lovers?), fake dating (or actually..marriage), and the good classic one bed trope. Buckle up for this charming adventure across Europe, as they run from the bad guys, find the coveted flash drive, and save the spy sister.

Of course… there’s a plot twist. ;) or two… or three.

Thank you to NetGalley, Avon Books, Harper Voyager, and of course Ally Carter for an eARC of this book, I absolutely loved it💕
