You or Someone Like You

Winter Renshaw. Montlake, $16.99 trade paper (270p) ISBN 978-1-66251-336-7

Manhattan’s high-gloss art world forms the background to this affecting romance from Renshaw (The Dirty Truth). Sweet 27-year-old art dealer Sloane has trouble saying no to her brassier identical twin, Margaux—even when Margaux asks Sloane to take her place on a blind date with her boss’s nephew. Margaux’s too sick to go herself, and, with a potential promotion on the line, she can’t risk pissing off her boss, so Sloane-as-Margaux is the next best thing. Wealthy art collector Roman, the widowed father of two daughters, can’t imagine moving on from his late wife, Emma, and is only going on this date to appease his aunt. Though grief, deception, and mistaken identity stand between them, the pair find themselves oddly drawn to each other, bonded by their love of art and perhaps guided by the hand of fate. Filled with drama and suspense, the novel takes readers on an emotional ride from the depths of loss to the soaring highs—and fears—of new romance. The little hint of wish fulfillment perfectly rounds out this sultry summer read. Agent: Jill Marsal, Marsal Lyon Literary. (July)
