About the Book
Imagine her shock when Violet Colby discovers she has an identical twin sister she never knew existed. Why her family was torn apart remains a secret no one can answer—yet.

Hoping to develop a sisterly bond, Violet invites her sophisticated city twin to the Colby Ranch in tiny Grasslands, Texas. But when her sister's former fiancĂ© arrives with questions of his own, country girl Violet finds herself drawn to handsome businessman Landon Derringer. And learns that true love requires faith—and a heart as big as Texas.

My Thoughts
Love Inspired novels used to be my guilty pleasure, so I decided to pick up a few recently for review. Her Surprise Sister by Marta Perry didn't disappoint. Slightly unbelievable at times—with look-alike women stumbling upon one another in a coffee shop only to realize they're twins—I still got totally caught up in this sweet, romantic read. I'm intrigued about the rest of the family members' stories and hope to be able to read the other books in the series. [4 stars]

I received a free copy of this book from Love Inspired via Net Galley in exchange for my fair and honest review.

About the Author
Marta Perry realized she wanted to be a writer at age eight, when she read her first Nancy Drew novel. Most girls reached the end of that book wanting to be Nancy. Marta wanted to be the person who created the story.

The dream lay hidden for years while she pursued other career goals, but eventually it re-surfaced, and she began to write, beginning with short children’s stories for Sunday school take-home papers. After seeing hundreds of her short stories published in a variety of magazines, Marta finally started work on the novel she’d always wanted to write. Fifty-some published novels later, she still feels the same excitement when she begins a new book.

Marta lives with her husband in a century-old farmhouse in the Pennsylvania countryside, but spends winters at their vacation home in South Carolina. When she’s not writing, she’s active in the life of her church and enjoys traveling and spending time with her three children and six beautiful grandchildren.
