Which couldn\u2019t be more opposite from her identical twin sister. Ginny, an Instagram-famous beauty pageant contestant, has been chasing a crown since she was old enough to enunciate the words\u00a0<i>world peace,<\/i>\u00a0and she\u2019s not giving up until she gets the title of Miss American Treasure. And Ginny\u2019s refusing to do it alone this time.<\/p>\n<p>She drags Charlotte to the pageant as a good luck charm, but the winning plan quickly goes awry when Ginny has a terrible, face-altering allergic reaction the night before the pageant, and Charlotte suddenly finds herself in a switcheroo the twins haven\u2019t successfully pulled off in decades.<\/p>\n<p>Woefully unprepared for the glittery world of hair extensions, false eyelashes, and push-up bras, Charlotte is mortified at every unstable step in her sky-high stilettos. But as she discovers there\u2019s more to her fellow contestants than just wanting a sparkly crown, Charlotte realizes she has a whole new motivation for winning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get the Accidental Beauty Queen at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.therippedbodicela.com\/aff\/dailywaffle\/book\/9781501197604\">the Ripped Bodice<\/a>\u00a0 | <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2P6qjSO\">Amazon <\/a>| <a href=\"https:\/\/geo.itunes.apple.com\/us\/book\/the-accidental-beauty-queen\/id1375729041?mt=11&amp;at=1001lIr6\">Apple Books<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"my-favorite-half-night-stand-by-christina-lauren-gallery-books-dec-4\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload_inited alignright wp-image-17478 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/my-favorite-half-night-stand-1.jpg\" alt=\"December New Releases_My Favorite Half-Night Stand\" width=\"400\" height=\"622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/my-favorite-half-night-stand-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/my-favorite-half-night-stand-1-193x300.jpg 193w, https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/my-favorite-half-night-stand-1-386x600.jpg 386w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><strong>My Favorite Half-Night Stand by Christina Lauren<\/strong> <strong>(Gallery Books, Dec. 4)<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Millie Morris has always been one of the guys. A UC Santa Barbara professor, she\u2019s a female-serial-killer expert who\u2019s quick with a deflection joke and terrible at getting personal. And she, just like her four best guy friends and fellow professors, is perma-single.<\/p>\n<p>So when a routine university function turns into a black tie gala, Mille and her circle make a pact that they\u2019ll join an online dating service to find plus-ones for the event. There\u2019s only one hitch: after making the pact, Millie and one of the guys, Reid Campbell, secretly spend the sexiest half-night of their lives together, but mutually decide the friendship would be better off strictly platonic.<\/p>\n<p>But online dating isn\u2019t for the faint of heart. While the guys are inundated with quality matches and potential dates, Millie\u2019s first profile attempt garners nothing but dick pics and creepers. Enter \u201cCatherine\u201d\u2014Millie\u2019s fictional profile persona, in whose make-believe shoes she can be more vulnerable than she\u2019s ever been in person. Soon \u201cCatherine\u201d and Reid strike up a digital pen-pal-ship&#8230;but Millie can\u2019t resist temptation in real life, either. Soon, Millie will have to face her worst fear\u2014intimacy\u2014or risk losing her best friend, forever.<\/p>\n<p>Perfect for fans of Roxanne and She\u2019s the Man, Christina Lauren\u2019s latest romantic comedy is full of mistaken identities, hijinks, and a classic love story with a modern twist.
