Peer behind the curtain of the ultra-successful in this romantic comedy from MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh.

‘A brilliantly funny and unique story about love, loss, family and fitting in. I laughed, I cried - I loved it.’ Holly Martin

The perfect house, the perfect husband and the perfect life... or is she just faking it?

Life has been a bit of a rollercoaster for Ella. Growing up as the 'less successful' identical twin to her 'perfectly successful' sister, Emma, has left her feeling isolated, inadequate and let's face it... a little bitter.

When Emma unexpectedly reaches out to Ella in a time of need, Ella suddenly finds herself with the opportunity to fill in for her sister and experience how the other half live.

But as Ella navigates the world of gossiping mothers, rebellious teens and trying to play the model housewife (not to mention avoiding the temptation of attractive men at the school gates...) will she discover that all is not always as it seems on the other side?

A laugh-out-loud fish out of water romantic comedy from MULTI-MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh.

I really enjoyed this book and I love the narrator.
I've listened to a few of this authors books now, they're very easy to follow from the beginning, some predictable parts but also little twists thrown in. I love the character's in this book, Ella is awesome.
After not seeing her identical twin sister Emma for years it is a shock to her when she rings her to ask a huge favour, she is not wrong when she says HUGE!
I have sniggered a few times, nearly got emotional once or twice too. I definitely recommend this, i enjoyed it from the first page to the last!

Another wonderful book by Portia MacIntosh. I love her dry humour, and there were lots of laugh out loud elements in this book, as there are in all of hers.

As always, fabulously narrated by Karen Cass.

Faking It is brilliant

completely ridiculous and beyond belief, and I loved it. I have always enjoyed books where the protagonist is not who everyone thinks they are, and the whole book builds up to the......gasp! BIG. REVEAL. wonderful :-)

exactly as expected
