About this audiobook
“For ratcheting suspense, dynamic characters, and a master’s touch in the courtroom, it’s tough to beat Lisa Scottoline’s Mistaken Identity.”—David Baldacci
In the fourth riveting thriller in #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline’s Rosato & Associates series, Bennie Rosato receives the shock of her life when she discovers she has an identical twin who also happens to be a murder suspect.
Accused of committing cold-blooded murder, Alice Connolly wants one lawyer to defend her: Bennie Rosato. But the no-nonsense Philadelphia criminal attorney isn’t interested—until she meets the accused killer face to face—and can’t believe what she sees. Alice claims she’s Bennie twin—and the woman does bear an uncanny resemblance to her. But Bennie grew up an only child. She doesn’t have a sister. Or does she?
Agreeing to take the case, Bennie plunges into the mystery of the murder and into the depths of her own past—a twisting search for justice and the truth that will keep the seasoned attorney guessing and leave readers breathless until the verdict is in.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The book held my interest through almost all of it. Some parts were annoying but it may have just been the way the narrator read it. But the ending??? I’m still confused as to what happened. If someone could explain to me what happened to Alice Connolly in the end I’d be forever grateful.

I wasn't aware of Lisa Scottoline's books before I encountered a copy of Mistaken Identities at a sale. This was in a period where I read a lot of detective/suspense books so I wanted to give it a try.
For me, this one was ok. I don't think it had a very compelling story or gave a very good view on law procedures, but it wasn't too bad either. Although, I still haven't read the other book by Lisa Scottoline that I own. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Bennie Rosato has to take on a case to defend a woman, Alice Connolly, from a charge of murder. Alice claims she is Bennie's twin, although Bennie has never known about a twin. Police corruption, drugs, murders, and boxing all play a role in this novel. Enjoyable.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was an excellent story. About finding out that you have a twin. You are an lawyer and are called to defend your twin.

When journalist Kansas Collins agreed to accompany her best friend to a Paranormal Convention, little did she realize she would meet her destiny, Jett Walker, the star of a popular television series. His ex-fiancée walked away after years of being together, but a ray of sunshine enters his bleak existence in the form of "a pretty, brown-skinned woman with almond-shaped, hazel-colored eyes". One night turns into a committed relationship, but Jett's past is threatening to derail his future.
Mistaken Identity was such a pleasure to read, I'm looking forward to reading it again and again. It features a white actor who has a legitimate claim to fame yet remains down to earth and approachable. Jett is not jaded by his fame and good looks and is a genuinely nice person. Kansas is a reporter with a quick wit and earthy beauty. She doesn't fall into the typical norm of the Hollywood babe and prefers to wear her curves proudly. Jett is only too happy to meet a woman who is not impressed by his world and doesn't feel the need to conform to its standards. As long as Jett loves Kansas just the way she is, she is fine with not being a size two. He's caring, giving and gorgeous and I'm jealous of Kansas.
I loved this story from the beginning. While serious issues such as anorexia and unplanned pregnancies are addressed, the romantic side is not overshadowed and there are many instances when humor takes over. It's not a very long read, but a very satisfying one and can be completed in one sitting. I've read other novels by Colt but I must say this is definitely one of my favorites.
~ Susan for AReCafe - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5What a thriller! This is full of many twists and is difficult to figure out right up to the end of the book.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting legal procedural. Criminal lawyer finds out she has a twin on trial for murder who is a life long criminal.
