Sweet Tricks

by Maggie Dallen

Tabitha and her friends are ready for a change--they're fresh out of college and ready for a new start, which means saying goodbye to their bad habits when it comes to men. For Tabitha that means swearing off bad boys once and for all. But that's easier said than done when she finds herself sharing an apartment with Jack, the bad boy to end all bad boys. Jack has an annoying tendency to come to her rescue, make her laugh, and give her kisses that leave her begging for more. As if their instant attraction doesn't make staying away hard enough, why does her new bad boy have to be so good?

Sweet Tricks de Maggie Dallen no es la novela mas conmovedora o emocional del mundo pero es una historia rapida, tierna y dulce.
Al tener tan pocas paginas no puede haber un desarrollo complejo o una trama novedosa pero es perfecta para cuando quieres leer algo lindo que te deje con una sonrisa y eso fue lo que yo consegui, no me importo que tuviera pequeños detalles que cojeaban, me gusto que fuera tan sencilla y adorable.

2.5 Estrellas!

Well, the tags say it all. It was a quick and funny read, something that I googled in two hours. I wanted to read a short, happily ever after clean romantic comedy and it was just that.

Cute

This was a cute read. It was fairly clean although it straddled that line between clean and not. There was some language and arousal descriptions that made it close, but ultimately nothing happened and the story itself was short and cute.
I received this book free from one of the book subscription emails.

Es el primer libro que leo de Maggie Dallen. Es una novela corta que se lee rápido. Nos habla sobre Tabitha y sobre sus malas experiencias que ha tenido últimamente, lo que la hace hacerse, junto sus amigas, una promesa que empezará a romper ese mismo día, al conocer a Jack. Quien resulta llamarse Jonathan y no es tan malo como piensa al principio, cuando lo clasifica que es un chico malo. Jack-Jonathan realmente es un chico que vale la pena y tiene sus motivos de haber mentido. En pocas palabras, me encantó todo lo que leí.

Porque siempre termino leyendo estos libros que ya sabia q ir iban a ser tan malos???
Esta historia no tan larga, recae en el abuuurido cliché, del chico malo y la chica buena (tocando el borde de la mas buena del mundo q termina siendo tonta x eso).
El protagonista Jack resulta ser un chico malo, que está enamorado de Tabitha por “amor a primera vista”. Y resulta q no es malo después de todo xk está enamorado. Pufffffff bueh, eso define todo el aburrido libro, donde el hace todo para q ella lo acepte al punto de no tener orgullo.
No lo recomiendo..

If you're looking for a quick read, then you will love Tabitha and Jack's story. Jack's keeping some secrets from Tabitha, but will they be a deal breaker when she founds out. One click your copy and read to find out what happens. This is my first book by Maggie Dallen, but it will not be my last.

I love Tabby's self assurance and lack thereof. And Jack, he's got a similar opinion of himself. This couple works for me. This story was just the pick me up that I needed tonight. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.

A fun, quick read, as two people untangle themselves from previous mistakes and thought-processes.

[Regina · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and sweet with a little superhero geekiness thrown in.
I like!

[Adriana · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sweet really is the perfect word to describe this short story. It's the perfect length to include just the right amount of romance, drama, and a perfect resolution.

[Sarah Davis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Jack was her very own Clark Kent, an average man on the outside—flawed, imperfect, human—but an incredibly good guy underneath.

Not for me.

Sweet short story

This is a sweet short story. It is cute and romantic. Not intriguing or exciting but entertaining. I love a good short story.

Una historia más para entretener.....

[Paula · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have always liked Clark Kent better than Superman. Tabitha thought she was getting another bad boy but was she really? Jack was just so lovable. The ending was so awesome.

[Eliza Nat · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is suitable if you're looking for:

-A quick read
-Sweet romance with light drama
-Easy to read

One-line summary: Short but packed with the necessary elements.

With just 5 chapters, this book was packed with the necessary elements for a good story- interesting characters, friendship, drama, and romance. I would consider the storyline to be very typical and predictable, but I think it can be overlooked considering this was a novella. I liked how the author narrated the story- how there were details but not overwhelming for a novella. This work was easy to read and I would be keen to read more from this author, perhaps a full-length book.

It's blind feelings that allows you to move in with someone whom you know is not known to be the forever kind but repeating the same mistake twice? You're very gullible then. And if that record still makes you trust yourself, then your more pathetic than everyone else.

I though the story was just plain cute and was a good at-the-moment read. It didn't held my attention much but it did entertain me at times when I needed a book to continue reading for a short time.

This was just what I was looking for – a quick and fun read with an HEA. Even though the length is short, the author gives us a complete story. It was good read with interesting characters and a fun storyline. Centered around Halloween but a good read for anytime of the year. Sweet, clean, romance-well done.

Cute and sweet

4 stars

This was the perfect story to be read on Halloween. It was a quick read with Clark Kent and Bat woman in the end. It couldn't be more perfect.

No hot scenes but just airy and romantic.

Happy Reading

This was a fun and sweet little book. I love books involving a rich person pretending not to be rich, they are so fun to watch play out. Both characters had bad previous relationships and overcame their fears for each other.

[Gemma · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short but sweet little freebie novella that I read while handing out halloween candy. I enjoyed it and would like to try more by this author.

Fun easy reading

I would have loved a full-length novel by this author instead of a short story. Will follow her from now on.

[Lauren]

Tabitha has just gotten out of a horrible relationship when she meets her dream guy. This is a cute short romance story that gives hope that love is out there, even dressed up as Clark Kent.

[Vibliophile · Rating 4 out of 5]

A cute short!

Tabby & Jack are both tired of being taken advantage of by users. Since Tabby's episode just happened, Jack wants to help her out. Well, and take her out, too.
