Dead Ringer by Heidi Belleau & Sam Schooler Release Date: October 26, 2015 Riptide Publishing About Dead Ringer Brandon Ringer has a dead man’s face. His grandfather, silver-screen heartthrob James Ringer, died tragically at twenty-one, and Brandon looks exactly like him. But that’s where the resemblance ends. Brandon is unknown, unemployed, and up to his ears in bills after inheriting his grandparents’ Hollywood mansion. He refuses to sell it—it’s his last connection to his grandmother—so to raise the cash he needs, he joins a celebrity look-alike escort agency. Percy Charles is chronically ill, isolated, and lonely. His only company is his meddlesome caregiver and his collection of James Ringer memorabilia. When he finds “Jim Ringer” on Hollywood Doubles’ website, he books an appointment, hoping to meet someone who shares his passion for his idol. Brandon? Not that person. But despite their differences, they connect, and Percy’s fanboy love for James ...

Note: This ARC was provided by Riptide Publishing in exchange for an honest review. When his grandmother, a former actress on the silver screen, passes away, nineteen-year-old Brandon Ringer is given ownership of her home and everything in it. There are fees, utilities, and other payables that Brandon will have to worry about, meaning he's going to need a steady source of income. He's a high school dropout who was thrown out of the house by his parents.

Percy Charles may be twenty-one years old but he's barely living the kind of life you expect from people his age. He's constantly reminded by his careg...
