Alexia just found out who her father is. The problem? He doesn’t know she exists, and in order to meet him, she’ll have to pretend to be someone else.

Alexia grew up with a single mother in a house where they pinched every penny until Abraham Lincoln cried.

That kind of poor.

So when she receives an offer to double for famous rockstar Kari Kingsley for a paycheck so high it should be illegal (spoiler: it sort of is) she packs her bags and heads for Hollywood.

If she’s pretending to be Kari, she’ll have the opportunity to meet her father.

She never expected to meet her celebrity crush, Grant Delray. He’s charming, talented, and exactly the kind of distraction she can’t afford.

But how do you stay away from a guy who makes you feel like the real you? Sparks fly, ignite, and light up everything she thought she could keep buried.

Unfortunately, he thinks she’s Kari, and if the truth comes out, she could lose him—and the chance to finally know her father.

What if getting everything she’s ever wanted means losing the only thing that really matters?

If you like YA romance novels with mistaken identities, swoony rock stars, and a girl caught between fame and family, you'll love this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy. Find out why millions of readers have fallen in love with Rallison’s YA romance books, and read this one today!

romantisches Teenie-Buch

Die 18jährige Alexia hat eine unheimliche Ähnlichkeit mit einer berühmten Popsängerin. Als eines Tages die Managerin der Sängerin vor der Tür steht und ihr viel Geld bietet, um den Star zu doubeln, sagt Alexia erst mal nein. Doch dann kommt die alte Frage wieder hoch, wer ihr Vater ist und warum sie der Popsängerin so ähnlich sieht. Als Alexia dem Deal zustimmt, hat sie ihre ganz eigenen Motive, um die Welt des Showbiz zu betreten.Janette Rallison besitzt einen guten Schreibstil. Man wird von Anfang an in die Geschichte hineingesogen und möchte immer wissen, wie es weiter geht. Es ist zwar nicht alles Sonnenschein, die Charaktere haben ihre Probleme, aber das Buch ist nicht sozialkritisch.Wer es romantisch und ein wenig kitschig mag, ist mit diesem Buch gut bedient.

ロックスターのダブル

Alexia Garcia(Lexi)は父親のことをほとんど知らないし、会ったこともない。それは、女手一つで育ててくれた母も、祖母もひた隠しにしてるから。18歳になったLexiはロックスターKari Kingsleyに似ていて、それがKariのマネージャーの目にとまり、スカウトされる。もちろんKariのダブルとしての仕事に。母の反対もあり一度は断るが、Kariの父親のAlex Kingsley(昔、母が憧れてた歌手)に会う事を条件に引き受ける。Kariとは共通点が多く、情がわくLexi。そして憧れのティーンアイドルGrant Delrayとも出会い・・・でも、もちろんKariとして。そしてKariにも彼氏がいるから、またややこしく・・・LexiのKariを思っての頑張りがすごい。でも完璧じゃなく、Grantに惹かれ勝手な行動をとってしまうのもわかる。誰にも本当のことが言えないLexiが歯がゆい。Lexiの母の切ない過去も・・・泣けます。そして、笑えます。ロマンティックなラブコメです。☆4.5

Excellent light reading

I wasn't sure about this book as the generation gap is huge between myself and the heroine of this book I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this story and Janette Rallison has a light, humorous writing style that appealed to my own sense of humour. I laughed several times whilst reading this and thought the heroine, Alexia, was great, and Kari had potential to be a decent person given some help. Kari's assistant is a really two faced witch of a woman and when she finds out who Alexia really is you can't help gloating that she gets her just desserts from our heroine. Good stuff and would read more by this author.
