Marissa Kincaid is sick of dating cheaters! She’s decided to fight back by launching a web site devoted to identifying serial cheaters. As a joke, she lists the very first cheater she encountered as a junior high student. Little does she realize that Trent Jackson is now the CEO of a major corporation and the sole owner of a magazine he wants to expand into print. Marissa’s site may add just the touch of publicity he needs. There’s only one little problem… Trent also wants Marissa to fall in love with him. Can Marissa overcome her fear of cheaters and commit to Trent? TO CATCH A CHEAT is an entertaining albeit overly long story. There were moments of hilarity as the concept of the two competing websites is quite funny. I also enjoyed the competition hosted by the radio show as it was easy to envision just that sort of thing happening. However, the plot seemed to drag at places and it was hard not to just skim some of the pages. Perhaps a little less sexual innuendo and a little more character development might have boosted the plot. Marissa is a hard character to like. Her behavior seems a bit juvenile and it is only the ending that redeems her overall. Trent, on the other hand, is a very likable hero. Admittedly, writing a story about a woman who dates serial cheaters and still making her seem feisty and independent isn’t an easy task at all. Readers who like a lighthearted story with lots of sexual innuendos will probably appreciate this story a bit more than this reviewer. Reviewed by Debbie |
