Publisher Description
"A unique, delightful, hilarious, unputdownable romance… I’m wonderstruck by The Blonde Identity!" — Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis
The New York Times bestselling YA author of the beloved Gallagher Girls series bursts onto the adult scene with a fast-paced, hilarious road trip rom-com about a woman with amnesia who discovers she’s the identical twin sister of a rogue spy… and must team up with a rugged, grumpy operative to stay alive.
It’s the middle of the night in the middle of Paris and a woman just woke up with no memory.
She only knows three things for certain:
1. She has a splitting headache.
2. The hottest guy she has (probably) ever seen is standing over her, telling her to run.
And oh yeah…
3. People keep trying to kill her.
She doesn’t know who. Or why. But when she sees footage of herself fighting off a dozen men there’s only one explanation: obviously. . . she’s a spy!
Except, according to Mr. Hot Guy, she’s not. She’s a spy’s identical twin sister.
Too bad the only person who knows she’s not the woman they’re looking for is this very grouchy, very sexy, very secret agent who (reluctantly) agrees to help her disappear. Which is easier said than done when a criminal organization wants you dead and every intelligence service in the world wants you caught.
Luckily, no one is looking for a pair of lovesick newlyweds on their honeymoon. And soon they’re lying their way across Europe—dodging bullets and faking kisses as they race to unravel a deadly conspiracy and clear her sister’s name.
But with every secret they uncover, the truth shifts, until she no longer knows who to trust: the twin she can’t remember or the mysterious man she can’t let herself forget…
"Spies! Amnesia! And banter that’ll make you chant “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” No one writes an action rom-com quite like Ally Carter." – Rachel Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of The Wife Upstairs
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestselling YA author Carter (the Gallagher Girls series) serves up an irresistible cocktail of danger and passion in her un-put-downable adult debut. A woman wakes up on an icy Paris sidewalk with no memory of who she is and bad guys closing in. According to her enemies, she's a rogue CIA operative named Alex who stole a critical flash drive from a Russian mobster and now she's on the run for her life. Run she does—right into the arms of sexy spy Jake Sawyer, who rescues her from her myriad pursuers and informs her that she's really Alex's innocent identical twin sister, Zoe. With a Russian gangster and a shady CIA agent hot on their heels, Sawyer and Zoe must jump on and off trains, boats, and bridges to stay alive—and locate the real Alex. Carter ratchets up the danger—and the sexual tension—at every turn, throwing plenty of red herrings across the trail and keeping readers guessing who to trust. Zoe's sense of humor in the face of danger adds levity, and readers will fall hard for gallant Sawyer. Carter also expertly teases a sequel about Alex, whetting appetites for the next installment. This snappy and suspenseful romance fires on all cylinders.

So nice to have Ally back in the spy world
If you grew up with Ally’s other works, you will enjoy this book. Loved it!
Oh my goodness
I’ve been reading Ally Carters books since I was 11 or 12 years old and I can absolutely say at age of 25 I’m still absolutely amazed at her writing. This books was delicious, absolutely hilarious,
just beautiful. I can’t wait for the second one which I hope will see the light of day soon! Thank you Ally for giving me the rush of life your books never seem to stop giving. 😂
This book was AMAZING!!
So I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that this was exactly the book that I’d been waiting for from Ally. It has romance with a lot of humor, and was just generally everything I’d hoped for.
When I realized Ally Carter was releasing this book, I was overjoyed. Ever since finishing the Gallagher Girls a second time,(which I totally recommend) I was looking for more Ally material and this was it.
Although it definitely was NOT for kids, I loved the friendliness and warmth that came with this book. It’s really a package deal and I’m hoping for a sequel, because of what Alex said at the end?
LOVED WITH ALL MY HEART.
