Under Gemini (by Rosamunde Pilcher)

'Under Gemini' is a short novel by Rosamunde Pilcher.

Flora, unemployed and temporarily homeless, arrives in London and meets by chance her identical twin sister Rose. Neither knew previously of the other's existence.

Flora takes on a deception for her sister's sake, learns how different they are, meets some delightful people in Scotland, and falls in love. Good characters and conversation although the plot is a little contrived.

Recommended, nonetheless.
