I thought this was really fun. The plot was a little ridiculous: pretend to be your sister no one will notice! But I enjoyed it and thought it was amusing.
I liked Kate and Gabriel’s interactions. The only thing that annoyed me was why did it take him so long to go after her at the end. There was a scene where he was like “you left” and I was like girl you need to respond with “you didn’t come after me.” He was the one adamant that he needed to marry that Russian princess so rightfully so it’s your duty to pursue the woman you love not for her to wait around to see if you will.
I also loved her “fairy” godmother Henry. I wish they’d gotten to know each other sooner but I’m glad they were able to form a relationship ship quickly and Kate has someone in her life to care about her. Her stepsister Victoria wasn’t bad either, she was sweet but an idiot but I really liked how she told Kate at the end that she could come live with her and her soon to be husband if she wished because they loved her.
