A Cunning Plan by B. Snow
A Cunning Plan - B. Snow

While Alec is an overgrown, clueless child, Morgan is a lying, pushy weasle with a sharp set of claws he is desperately trying to sink into Alec. 

Both characters are chaotic and prone to contradictions. Alec is petrified he'll end up in hell because of his "madness", but has no problem doing other stupid things that might land him in that particular place. The whole Penny/Morgan's sister story is so messy, that I am afraid to say more, lest the whole thing sucks me down like quicksand and I end up with a small novel for a review.

From the moment we meet the little fox, the story becomes predictable, the lies and excuses transparent. The plot calls for Alec to remain in the dark, but to the readers the whole affaire is blatantly clear, which makes it a frustrating read. 

When Morgan came out to Alec, the scene was so anticlimactic I almost DNF-ed right there and then. Actually, to be honest, I did stop reading and started skimming, doing my best impersonation of Dr. Spencer Reid.

Sorry, but I can't give this more than 2 stars.

MY REVIEW
.
A Cunning Plan by Astrid Arditi is her debut novel. I am not afraid to try a new author, in fact, I am always on the lookout for one. You never know where that hidden gem may come from and I found one here.
.
The cover is so pretty, but it was the blurb that really grabbed me.
.
A woman scorned does not bode well for Tom.
.
The first pages had me cracking up, all the while thinking, the bitch is crazy. :twisted:
.
I want to jump into the pages and punch both their lights out. Tom is a douche and Sloane is a wimp. He really needs to man up. Ethan, hmmm, a hunky IRS agent and Sloane's life gets more interesting...and humorous once he enters the story.
.
I cursed and laughed my way through a Cunning Plan by Astrid Arditi. Her writing makes me think of Janet Evanovich. The more I read, the more I couldn't help but laugh at her misconceptions and naivety. She is one of us...a real person with all her insecurities alive and well.
.
The two little girls are cute as hell with tons of personality, lovable bundles of joy.
.
And we cannot forget Sloane's trusty sidekick, Claudia. She reminded me of Rosie on Will and Grace, if you have ever watched the TV show, you can imagine her personality 'shining' through.
.
A Cunning Plan by Astrid Arditi is a funfilled romp, full of mystery and romance, with delightful and heart-grabbing characters. Seeing this is Astrid's entrance in the writing world, I can hardly wait to see what she comes up with next.
.
I received an ARC of A Cunning Plan from Astrid Arditi in return for an honest review.sted:

SYNOPSIS

Determined to put her family back together, Sloane Harper stalks her ex husband and his annoyingly stunning mistress, Kate Stappleton. But she’s not the only one.

 

Handsome IRS agent Ethan Cunning is surveying Kate too, but for entirely different reasons. He is attempting to nail Kate’s playboy boss.

 

Ethan and Sloane decide to help each other, which sends Sloane’s wobbly life spinning out of control. She’ll have to face danger, humiliation, and – scariest of all – the dating scene, to lure her daughters’ father home.

 

Losing control was the best thing to happen to Sloane…until it turned lethal.

A Cunning Plan
A Cunning Plan - B. Snow Alec and Villenie’s association is nothing less than contentious from the start. At least on Alec’s part—there’s a moral to that animosity too. Of course there is. One often despises what one can’t have, doesn’t one? But like also attracts like, doesn’t it? So, there’s the dilemma for Alec. His madness has him tied up into a Gordian knot of denial and confusion. But, it’s also a madness that Villenie shares, which does absolutely nothing and everything to help Alec understand why he numbs himself to his true nature.

Like A Cunning Plan: Erotic Trickster Tales
Like A Cunning Plan: Erotic Trickster Tales - Michael M. Jones,Nica Berry,Sunny Moraine,N. Violett,Nadine Wilmot,Elizabeth Schechter,Kaysee Renee Robichaud,Gayle C. Straun I loved the variety of tricksters in this book. From one story to the next I found myself getting lost in these stories. The characters were fantastical but sexy in a real way. The situations and environment these tricksters live in was far out, but every one of the stories were well written and sexy. From shape shifters to temple Gods these stories gave me a great sex-full escape and whet my appetite for more from this collection of authors.
