Beguiling Bachelors #0.5
Bewildered
Two Perfect Men. Two Best Friends. One Choice
Sloane Huyler is a spoiled, demanding beauty, and smart as a whip. She’s also lonely; manipulated by grasping parents to marry a man who can catapult them to the top of Chicago society. Sloane striving never to disappoint is on a fast train to the top, Sloane is VP in her father’s business, on the board of a prestigious hospital, and at the top of her MBA class, when she’s offered a mentor to help her complete the program.
Enter two men, both excellent candidates as mentors—and husbands—being served up to Sloane on a silver platter. Finally, a way to achieve all her goals. Sloane suddenly finds school and life very stimulating.
Wyatt Howe, IV, is movie-star handsome, old moneyed, well connected, and a hunk. He has a reputation as a player, but Sloane believes she can claim this prize. Sexy, rugged and enticing, the elusive Randall Parker gives Wyatt a run for his money in the looks and money departments, and in his appeal to Sloane.
Sloane would normally go after both, but these two are best friends. No way she can play two friends against each other. She must choose. Either man would fit her needs, and her father's, but so far, both have escaped the clutches of any women whose tried to pin the men down.
But Sloane’s not just any woman.
A mentorship program spells opportunity, and Sloane doesn’t plan to waste it. Six weeks doesn’t leave much time to seal the deal. Sloane must choose one man, and fast, without burning her bridges with the other.
How does a woman choose between two perfect men? Especially two men who have plans of their own?

A sexy game of cat and mouse.

I loved this book as you could relate to the characters and you understood them by their thoughts & feelings. The book was descriptive but, not overly so! The plot is simple. An MBA student is introduced to two Businessmen who will be mentoring her class. She has to pick the right one for her to be mentored by. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series by a very talented Author. I would definitely recommend this book.

Received and ARC from Voracious readers
Very rich in details about all characters.
Sloane knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go out and get it.
Randall and Wyatt have no clue what's headed their way, and when it hits them BOOM!!
So now that Sloane got what she was after, will she keep perusing? Or will she move on?

By Madison Michael
Main Characters: Sloane, Wyatt, and Randall
I voluntarily and honestly reviewed this book without bias or persuasion from the author.
3 out of 5 stars
This was a prequel to the Beguiling Bachelors series. I started out not liking the characters but then just dying to find out what happens between the three of them. Which bachelor Sloane ends up with or maybe both of them? All three characters have their own plans that they want to take to fruition. We are left up in the air at the end, so be prepared for a "to be continued." I do hope this author makes the characters a little more likable in the next book.

I really hate these serial type stories. This one does not give you enough about anyone to form a solid except Sloane. I didn’t like her manipulative self at all.

The story itself was well written and descriptive but I could not get passed the incredible shallowness of Sloane.
