I'm sort of having a hard time finding a book for the Character part of the challenge, I have a potential book where the characters are brothers but I don't know if they're twins or not.I saw some books on the listopia list but I wasn't sure about any of the titles. Any suggestions from anyone?
Mod
Twin Fantasies
Their One and Only
those are the first ones to come to mind. I'm sure I can think of a few more when it's not so late for me. I have no idea how I'm still up. LOL
This is a free read. It's features twin sisters.
Miss Kenjii? I know you said that the book had to contain twins. I have this book where the two male characters are brothers but I don't if they're twins or not would that still count?Oh and Sassafrass? Thanks for the recommendations I;m contemplating picking up Twin Fantasies since I can get it from my local library but I'm not sure yet, thanks again!
