No romance…
An interesting short, more women’s fiction than anything. No romance. This was almost like a police procedural where it really only talks about process. The soon to be ex turns out to be committing fraud by inflating his sales records, thereby using inaccurate data in quarterly reports. Shareholders are not usually impressed by that…
The plus one is really superfluous. She served no real purpose.
KU and not really interesting…

What a waste of 50 pages.

His Plus One, part of A Wronged Wife's Revenge series, was about Maren Tierney, the CFO of...an unnamed company. (No ages or last names were given for anyone....)
Maren and her soon-to-be ex-husband, Grant Tierney, had known each other for four years, ever since just before she had prepped him for an interview with the CEO for a position in the sales department, where she had already been the CFO), married for 3 before the divorce was filed (by Grant six months before the story began, and still wasn't final).
This wasn't a story. Oh, it had angst, drama, and a tiny emotional rollercoaster, with a touch of conflict tossed in for good measure. However, it was written more like a financial report that someone was handing out to the board of directors for their quarterly meeting. It was boring, dull, and drier than the Mojave Desert. Even the title was wrong. "His Plus One"?! It wasn't even about the other woman, so the title was a misnomer.
Even though there were ten chapters, there was hardly any interaction between the FMC and her soon-to-be ex. In fact, there wasn't much interaction with anyone. It was told as a narrative, cold, distant, and flat, and it all took place in less than 24 hours. The marriage was already over before the opening chapter, so why did the author have to throw in the "other woman" trope? The reader was never told if the ex had been cheating in the marriage, so why did he file for a divorce? Was he jealous of his wife's position, since she had a title and he didn't? It's never explained.
Since I already said it was over in 24 hours, that revealed the writing had zero character building or growth. It had...nothing. So, nothing gets a one-star rating.

Dear Mother,
I'm sorry you're gone. I promise you to never read another one of these empty, clinical, flat AI written stories again. At least I didn't pay for them (outside my KU subscription).
This story has nothing to do with the title. They are already divorcing. He created financial fraud; she exposed it at the corporate party. He brought a date to the party; she broke up with him in the parking lot because she didn't like him.
90% of the story is set at the party, so you'll read all about the caterers, the food, the seating charts, who says what to whom. Fascinating.

strong woman dealing with a cruddy ex
I liked this short story; I enjoyed how the fmc dealt with her choices, I liked how she planned, I felt the the side characters were interesting and I appreciated how the fmc ensured results. It was a quick read but enjoyable. The ex husband was written to be unlikable- which I definitely did not like him.

Surprisingly good
Surprisingly enough substance for a very short novella. I was surprised that there wasn’t more of a push back from the husband at the end.

I read to the end, but found this very emotionless, Almost a timeline, very flat, sorry it could have been good

If AI is “intelligent”, why does it make so many glaring mistakes?

That was something…
It was less amusing than those odd AI written stories all over TikTok and YouTube. I kept waiting for something to happen. It never did.

Revenge ..Ok
Maren is taking back what she once let go of to her then-husband, Grant. He used her by taking the accolades and recognition she had earned for himself, and now she has planned her revenge to make sure everyone he works with knows exactly what kind of person he is.
I liked that the author got straight to the point without unnecessary details. Seeing Maren take back her power was empowering, but for me, the revenge felt like something I’ve read before. A quick, easy read, but ultimately, it was just another revenge story and didn’t leave much of an impression.
