REVIEW: Switched at Birth by Christine Rimmer

Switched at Birth (The Bravos of Valentine Bay #4) by Christine Rimmer is part of her The Bravos of Valentine Bay series. The author has done an excellent job of writing a sweet yet sexy story of two people falling in love.

Madison Delaney , Hollywood actress and usually referred to as America’s Sweetheart has a secret. She has found out that she was switched at birth by Martin Durand with Aislinn Winter. How can it be that her real parents were George and Marie Bravo? She has come to believe this but she still wasn’t ready to meet her brothers and sisters. George and Marie Bravo died during a trip to Thailand so she would never know them. Yet here she was stayimg in a rental cottage in Valentine Bay. It was peaceful here – no paparazzi to deal with. She was just relaxing and enjoying watching her sexy landlord Sten Larson working next door in his workshop. It was so pleasant fantasizing about him and seriously considering her plan to end her acting career. Then his niece, Coco saw her and recognized her as Eliza in the Disney movie The Wild Swans. Thus began a more intimate relationship with Sten Larson.

For his part Sten Larson couldn’t bring himself to believe Madison really planned to leave her acting career and move to Valentine Bay. He knew Madison loved him and he was falling in love with her. But could this really work? Could they really have their HEA?

Both Madison and Sten have obstacles to overcome but true loves does seem to always find a way. This is a lovely story and I really enjoyed how the author wrote two characters who were meant to be together and how they found their way. Christine Rimmer is to be commended on her story-telling ability.
