Just Be Her: A Modern Fairytale Retelling Kindle Edition

4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 335 ratings

If you could escape your life for one month, would you?

Alexandria Zamorano was everything I wasn’t – sophisticated, ambitious, used to getting what she wanted. The only thing we had in common was…well, our face! It was like looking in a mirror when we collided. I don’t know what I was thinking, agreeing to put on her pearls and step into her world for a month. Now, I’m stuck in the lap of luxury, trying to avoid an irresistible, persistent billionaire…the one man that’s off limits.

And if someone took your place, would anyone notice?

Toni Mathers lived a life I could never have – uncomplicated, fun, never worrying about the consequences of wild nights. We looked identical, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to don her tight pants and loose life for a month. The owner of the local dive bar, and the lead singer of the band, made all my escapist fantasies come true. Now, when I think about swapping back, it feels like I’ll be leaving a part of my soul with them.

Our lives couldn't be more different.…and when the secrets behind our identical appearance are revealed, neither of us will ever be the same.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The drama starts on the very first page and doesn't let up. The characters in this book are unique, nuanced, and perfectly imperfect.

- Alicia (Amazon Review)

It packed A LOT of steam and plenty of sweetness... Just Be Her is highly addictive and completely blew my mind. It is a MUST READ!

- Amy (Book Addict Reviews)

Just Be Her is a contemporary romance novel that strongly resembles the familiar tale of the Prince(ss) and the Pauper... It was well written, well paced and absolutely gripping!

- Tabssum (Goodreads)

Captivatingly raunchy story
Kaydence Snow never seems to disappoint!I went into it without knowing anything other than it's about two women switching places. I was very pleasantly surprised by it all.I loved how you don't really know who is going to end up with who at first. Both the characters seem to be into several people and it was never obvious who was the love interest. At least not for me.The character development was written rather well. The women learned a lot about themselves as well as each other by living each other's lives. It did annoy me how arrogant Toni seemed at first (ordering the most obnoxious things from the servants at the house just because she could. Just... Why?), but it was obvious in the end that it's just a mechanism to protect oneself. She didn't really want to get close to anyone and so lived a very freeing and - to be honest -pretty exciting life before Alex showed up, never letting anyone get to know her too well.The chemistry between the love interests was definitely palpable and so enjoyable to read. And even though these relationships played a big part in the story, there were other twists and turns that I definitely did not see coming. The author managed to keep me on my toes until the very end I loved it. Wouldn't mind reading more about these characters!

    This was such a wonderful book! It was fun and humorous but also had me completely engrossed--I could not put it down!! Which was weird because I wouldnt describe it as super tense. It was kind of outside my normal genre. No fantasy, no huge villains to overcome...yet it drew me in immediately. I think it was the excellent characters. Toni and Alex are each so unique and strong in their own ways, funny and likeable and I instantly connected with them. And the guys!! Obsessed. There was great tension, a fast-moving plot, lots of humor, and overall it was just a perfect fun romantic read!

    Not sure about "A Modern Fairytale Retelling" (is The Parent Trap a fairytale?) but I really enjoyed this. It was like a risqué, reimagined parent trap. Prim and proper Alexandria runs across her doppelganger in the foul-mouthed bartender Toni and decides that switching lives for a month would be beneficial for them both. All manner of slightly unbelievable things happen during that time, but there's romance, a little mystery, and lots of smexy times. Entertaining, enjoyable, and hot.

    I am an avid reader and this book was highly recommended in a FB bookclub. I started reading it - and I couldn’t stop! This book is funny, charming, heart warming as well as heart breaking. Toni and Alex are so opposite, but they complement each other well. Toni enjoys hook ups, smokes, drinks, cusses, and has walls the size of Great Wall of China. Alex is wealthy, prim and proper. Due to Alex experiencing a lot of stress (work and personal) she asks a stranger with her face to switch places with her for a month, for a great deal of money. Alex, who is poor and wants to go to college, reluctantly agrees. However, the girls soon find that they benign in the others life, living as the other. As the plot thickens and secrets are revealed, the girls are forced to face their truths. This book is one of my new favorites, and as mentioned, I read A LOT. this book has a way of sucking you in, falling in love, and really feeling what each girl is feeling. It alternates between the girls so you get very familiar with them both. Loved this book and was sad when it ended!!!

    Going into this book I wasn’t sure what to expect but I’m sure glad I read it. Yes there is romance and some hot scenes but I absolutely loved that it was a story of friendship and family. It really showed you can find friends and even family in the most random of places and you never know if a person you are just meeting will become a best friend or even a sister. That’s what I loved most about this book is the growth of friendship between Toni and Alex. How close they became without knowing all the facts. Allowing this crazy friendship to evolve allowed them to find family and even the loves of their lives. This book gave me everything I needed friendship, family, loss and pain but also hope for the future since all you need is to meet that one person who can change your life for the better and that’s exactly what I think Toni and Alex did for each other.

    Let me start by admitting something - I am not a fan of the switching identity trope at all. I usually dislike the inherent dishonesty and eventual reveal of said dishonesty. HOWEVER, Just Be Her really worked for me and I believe it's because Ms. Snow does such a fantastic job with character development and put me right there with them in their experience.
    Just Be Her starts off with an intro to Toni and then BAM, she meets Alex who looks identical to her. From there you have a switcheroo and a building bond between the ladies and connection with their respective gentlemen and emotions and drama and action and all the feels! Whew! I felt the balance between building the stories of both Toni and Alex respectively AND their shared story went beautifully. Another well-written and engaging story from Ms. Snow!

    With the story concept told so frequently over time, I wasn't sure how this was going to stand out. But it really did. I think setting it in New Orleans, and that strong sense of place, helped ground the characters and provide a backdrop for their unique personalities to really shine. It never dragged for me, and I loved how easily the story bounced between Alex and Toni. There were a few conflicts that seemed too easy to have spotted, and too easily resolved. But even with that critique, I really enjoyed the book.

    This book was perfect and made me have all the feels! If you haven't read it yet, what are you waiting for?!
    I started out angry reading this, and quickly moved on to curious. Then, I was invested in the outcome and was nervous for what would happen. About the time the MCs realized their feelings, I started to get sad and anxious for them, wanting that HEA.
    Then all hell broke loose, I was back to being mad, but it was for them, not at them! The ending though! No spoilers but it was surprising and does end up with a HEA that made me cry happy tears.
    This book seriously has it all and the growth and development of the characters is outstanding. Thank you Kaydence Snow for putting yourself out there again with another amazing book! You are incredibly talented!

    I’ve been looking forward for this book release since it was announced. It didn’t disappoint! I loved it even more than I thought possible. All of the characters were each complex and you were rooting for everyone especially Toni and Alex. It had everything and more for an amazing romance novel. I was sad when it ended and just wanted to continue eating up their lives. Thank you Kaydence for the amazing book. I definitely will be buying the hard back too to add to my library.

    Wow. I really loved this book!
    Identical strangers meet by chance and take the opportunity to switch lives for a month. I absolutely loved the characters, Toni with her quick wit and sass, and Alex with her charisma and charm, as well as the men that they fell for.
    A standalone novel told from dual POV; it’s sweet and steamy with secrets and suspense that will grab your attention from page one and keep you hooked until the very end!

    5.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing read
    Reviewed in Australia on October 4, 2020
    An interesting read for sure. It’s not every day you come across a book that has long lost siblings that have a parent trap moment but with more intense and somewhat darker tones. I enjoyed this so much!
    .
    I didn’t know what to expect with this book even after reading the blurb so when I read it my excitement level grew throughout the whole book. I love Alex and Toni. Both polar opposites and from different walks of life but both find what they each were missing in each other and Paths they pretended to lead. I was intriguing as hell to watch as they navigated being each other after a freak meet in a dirty alleyway. Watching as they find what they least expected to, was great. Seeing Toni, a closed off independent woman, fall in love with someone everyone least expected and Alex, a prim and proper woman, find freedom and the love she craved with her men was amazing.
    .
    Both have been through so much in life and both had the most incredible growth and development through the book, it was amazing to see. The characters were great and seeing the different scenarios and how their paths seem to both interweave and still be seperate was fascinating. I have enjoyed watching the relationships develop and grow, the instant chemistry and the secrets unfold was great.
    .
    The mystery and underlying thrill aspect had me gripped. I cannot get enough of this book. Such a drama filled read with it starting right off the bat. I really didn’t want it to end and I look forward to seeing more from Kaydence. She certainly knows how to intrigue and captivate an audience.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    If you are looking for a fun and steamy stand-alone, this book is it!

    2 strangers who are IDENTICAL, what are the chances right? They meet, and with a bit of convincing (and money), they switch lives for a month. Alex is the primary and proper girl with a lot of weight on her shoulders. So much is expected of her and she just wants that taste of freedom, even if only for a little bit. Toni has that freedom she craves, she’s a bartender with a string of one nights behind her.

    This story gave both characters what they needed in life, without them even realising they need it. Friendship, family and love. If you want something with a fair bit of steam and a HEA, this book is the one 🖤
