An Abundance of Brothers (Twisted Bard series)

What's (arguably) better than a fairy tale retelling? A Shakespeare retelling! DK Sutton is one of the many authors in a new multi-author series (A Twisted Bard series) taking on the task of taking Shakespeare's work and turning it (more) gay. DK Sutton wrote "An Abundance of Brothers," based on The Comedy of Errors. 

["Two sets of identical twins mismatched at birth and raised as brothers.

Xander
Winning this baking competition will prove I can handle the pressure of running the family restaurant. But things go sideways right from the start. People I’ve never met act like they know me. Even my brother’s personality changes overnight. Add in a cute guy who hates me with a passion usually reserved for your worst enemy…and my ability to focus is severely tested.
I need this win, but we might not make it through the first round.

Dom
My focus is on helping Xander win and uncovering the truth about our past. But when my socially awkward brother changes overnight into a sexy beast of a man, I have bigger problems. How can my body betray me like this? These feelings are dangerous and wrong. And reciprocated.
Except, not all the time. My brother switches personalities like he does shirts—several times a day. Xander and I are out of sync and almost out of time.
As the competition heats up, we come face-to-face with the truth. Literally. Two men identical to us. And my brother isn’t my brother? We swap places, but pretending to be the other twin is harder than expected. Can we reunite our broken family? Or will our secrets tear us further apart?"]

I'd like to say this book was more confusing this it was. But it really wasn't. Yes, when the boys first got to the comeptition, it took a hot minute for me to recenter myself (and when the two sets of twins were first reunited accidental-Parent-Trap-style (there were a few Parent Trap moments, actually)), but D.K. (and the narrators) were good at distinguishing between the two sets of Doms and the two sets of Xanders. The side characters were a tad bit of scrambling to understand, but if I would have actually read the List of Characters section, the might not have happened. 

There was SOOOO much love in this book. So much chemistry. So much fluff and fire. And so. much gay. It was glorious and chaotic (very Shakespeare, actually).

I need to read the rest of this series...if only I had infinite time for reading.

Trigger Warnings: one MC is autistic, cheating by the love interest of one MC, two sets of twins are mismatched and switched at birth, and more.
