First I want to thank Voracious Readers for allowing me to read this book for free.

Bree visits her long time friend Chloe and her husband. Chloe confided in her friend Bree that she is no longer happy in her marriage and she’s been cheating. But to save her self the shame of being the bad person for leaving her husband she strikes up a plan to intimidate Bree into sleeping with her husband, giving her a way out. Bree figures out what her friend is planning and goes along with it only because she feels bad for Brody (her friends husband) and feels as this will help Brody in the long run.only it gave Bree the idea of becoming a mistress for hire to catch cheating husbands after her own ordeal with a married man.

3 stars is me being very generous.
In the beginning of the book it starts with Brees tale of her an a friend josh. Then with in the next few pages it’s jumped four years and talks about their one night stand and that’s the end of it. talks no more of josh, nothing. Like how is this part even Relevant A lot of scenes in this book are like what the crap does this have to do with the story.
Especially the nightmare.

Another thing that really grind my gears was the part of the story where Bree was having a commotion with a husband she was supposed to be seducing. He pushed her down and she hit her head she was trying to fight off the husband when Madoc, who you will come to know, comes between her and the husband. He spends the night on the floor of Bree’s hotel room to make sure she is okay because of hitting her head. Next thing you know there bumping uglies. Like what in Sam Hill.

There was just a lot of How was this relevant moments and why is that even in the book The author could have left that part out.

The more I think about the mess this book is the more I want to lower the star count........

Definitely a page turner! The author did a fantastic job in enticing this reader with the characters and storyline! Can't wait for the sequel.

[Kate Smith · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book took me a couple of chapters to get into but once I did I really enjoyed it. It was not like other erotica type books I have read and it was a pleasant surprise.
The author kept me reading.
The only issues I found with this book was it was not set up well. The title kept being in the centre of the pages and the same with the author's name which made it hard to read as it didn't flow well because of this. Also the pages numbers were in the middle of lines which again were not in a line.
This book is definitely aimed at women, I'd say 20's and up.
I liked the twist on her last 'assignment' as I didn't expect it.
The blurb described the book well but it was definitely different to what I expected but in a good way. I had no idea it was going where it did when I first started reading the book. I never expected the main character's 'assignments' to be that.
I am really hoping there is a sequel to this book and if so I can't wait to read it.
Please note I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

I received a manuscript copy of this book from Voracious Readers Only and I finished it within 2 days! I really could not put it down! Well thought out and written very well. I really felt as though I connected to the main character, Bree, as she sought out her adventures. The book was fast paced and moved along well, there were no unnecessary scenes that I felt needed to be skipped past but you still got a clear picture of everything that had happened or was happening and why things panned out the way that they did. A very gripping tale with a pleasing ending. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

[Rachel · Rating 5 out of 5]

I practically read it in one sitting. Very hard to put down but pesky life kept insisting that I did, but was back reading as soon as possible. A unique story. Loved that Bree looked at with morality intact. Badger games but the spouse involved definitely a different take on things! Throughly recommend reading this book

[Valerie N. · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved it! A nice, romantic story that keeps you on your toes and on the edge of your seat for the next cliffhanger. Abby Parker is a wonderful writer that truly brings her characters to full light.

[Kellie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing book!! And the author is pretty fricken cool too!

[Genevieve · Rating 5 out of 5]

This story was amazing. It kept me on the edge because you didn’t really know what was going to happen next. Bree has a hard time excepting her past love Adam and seems to compare him to everyone that she meets. Her best friends party going wrong helps the beginning of a new career that not expected but pays her extremely well. Bree meets someone who she thinks she love but can’t keep Adam out of her thoughts. I enjoyed reading this novel. And I want to she what happens next when Bree and Chloe go to meet Adams wife to work as a mistress for hire. I do recommend it to read.

[Annaleig8 H · Rating 4 out of 5]

I'd say this is a 3.5-4 star book. When I first began to read the book it took me a while to completely get into the story. Once I was in, I found some of the chapters a bit rushed but the premise of the story is very interesting. Within the last few chapters, I genuinely felt so happy for the main character!...and then it got the final part of the Epilogue, I felt kind of disappointed in the end, almost as if the character is going to go onto have loads of heartbreak, if the story continued.

I would recommend this book, give it a chance!

I received this ARC by Voracious Readers Only to give my opinion about this book.

I start this book yesterday, and I will not finish it.
This synopsis of the book is good, but my main character is bored asf. The chapters are so long that I was thinking to DNF this book, but I try to give a chance. Except, I can’t and I see few errors also.

[Paulaletsympatico.com · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book had an interesting plot and a very relatable main character. Although I wouldn't do the things Bree did I was rooting for her all the way. I wanted to read it quickly to find out what happened. If you want an enjoyable page turner be sure to pick this up!

[Michelle Bromfield · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book provided to me by Voracious Readers Only in exchange for a review was at times, difficult to follow. I felt that the plot moved too quickly in parts and some of the writing seemed to be missing clarity and flow. I would have preferred more depth.

[Barb Link]

I totally loved this novel. Abby captured Bree and the other characters that made me want to read on as the plot was ever so good. I can’t wait for the second novel.

[Noreen Bennett · Rating 2 out of 5]

A well written book about a female who exposes cheating husband's

[Donna · Rating 4 out of 5]

I received this book in return for an honest review.

I like this book a lot, but I didn’t love it. I found the premise of mistress for hire somewhat unpleasant. And a little seedy. I understand cheating is also unpleasant and seedy so it became a necessary evil. I really liked Madoc. I felt the book was well written and easy to get into. I would definitely recommend this book thank you.
