review 1: Dee Dawning's Duped is some what of an acquired taste. Her Character's are great but the over all plot is a little swanky. I'm sorry but it just seemed like she had so many idea's and threw it into one book when she could have easily made it into a series. Honestly, The main characters dead twin sister brings her together with her love? Honestly? I know men think about sex 24/7 but in reality what man would get turned on by a woman saying do me like you did my sister? Its kind of creepy. But like in other reviews the main character that makes the book worth page turning is (drum roll) Letta Storm, a very kick ass lawyer but maybe too much into the sex life of her clients.She is by far the best character I've read in one of these erotica books.(FYI I don't read a lot of t... morehem.) Its almost enough to read the book just for her, Tony being mouth watering has something to do with as well. This book wont get five stars from me but it should still be read, if you can take the roller coaster plots and the sometimes not so professional writing of Dawning who is milking with creativity. But her grammar is not one point, (Everyone has a moment) But when you switch from having your main character tell the story to saying 'she' in the same sentence something is off sorry Dawning.
review 2: Aside from the usual (grammar & punctuation) here's the breakdown:1) Abrupt changes in point of view, some purposeful and some obviously accidental.2) The inclusion of a highly supernatural element (ghost) that seemed superfluous. 3) Everyone acts thrilled about the fact that Jamilla is a twin that was given up for adoption, including the guy who uses her as a replacement for her dead sister. 4) Jamilla seems to enjoy replacing her dead sister, right down to wanting to have sex with the sister's former lover in all the same ways. (Ew.) She only mentions the awkwardness once in passing, and it feels contrived. A moment later, she's asking Tony more sex questions about her sister so she can try the same things.5) The sex scenes were ridiculous. The vocabulary was clunky and silly. Also, no guy notices that your bracelet matches your necklace while you're stripping! You're getting NAKED, sweetie; that's ALL he sees.The only saving grace is Letta Storm. She is the only likeable character. Still, we hardly get to know her.Ah, well. At least it was a funny read. I wouldn't purchase another book by this author, but should another come up as a freebie I'd definitely give her a second chance, particularly if it was another story featuring Letta Storm. less

Crappy plot stringing together laughable sex scenes with a couple of good moments.
