Two worlds. One impossible love. And a clock that’s already ticking.
Dominic
I’m on a secret diplomatic mission to a parallel version of Earth—one that looks identical to my own, yet operates by entirely different rules. I have six months to observe, negotiate, and return home. Getting involved isn’t part of the plan. Falling in love is out of the question.
Lainey
In my world, pleasure isn’t hidden or restrained—it’s celebrated. Desire is freedom, not something to be ashamed of. Dominic fascinates me not just because of our attraction, but because he believes in something I’ve never known: commitment to one person, above all others.
Drawn together by an attraction neither can deny, Dominic and Lainey fall into a connection that deepens far beyond desire. But every stolen moment is shadowed by the same truth: Dominic belongs to another universe, and the day is coming when he’ll have to leave. Loving him means risking everything—across worlds.
Duplication is a high-spice contemporary romance with a parallel-universe twist, a guaranteed HEA, and no cheating. It’s book two in the Love Against the Odds series, though it can be enjoyed as a standalone.sfsf
"I was shook and in awe of the unique premise. I devoured this opposites attract romance, set in a dimension that is a mirror to ours, but culturally hedonistic." —Goodreads ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
