This review is from: Madam Eve (Paperback)

After more than 20 years of marriage, Evelyn is finally divorced from her abusive retired football player husband. Instead of enjoying what she acquired from her settlement, Evelyn comes up with devious plan. She decides to start a male escort service to help her best friends get revenge on their philandering husbands by allowing them to cheat as well. But there is one catch: The women will be using their husband's money. Evelyn recruits and trains a young and sexy man named Andrew to be her first escort. Andrew didn't have a lot of confidence when it came to women until Evelyn taught him tools of the trade. Soon Andrew is swept away into a life of fine clothing and more money than he could imagine. When a potential girlfriend comes into the picture, Andrew wonders if he really wants to continue the life of an escort.

Madam Eve is an interesting and daring novel by Eddrick Dejuan. Dejuan brought a creative storyline by having Evelyn start an escort business. You can almost see the wheels turning in Evelyn's head as she devises this plan. You also feel the confusion of Andrew as he is thrown into this lifestyle. This novel would have been a lot better if Evelyn didn't start the escort business so abruptly. It also would have been nice if there was more character development with Andrew. There could have been a stronger secondary storyline with Andrew and his father. Madam Eve is still a good story for those who are looking for something a little different.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Quick Read With An Interesting Plot, February 1, 2010

This review is from: Madam Eve (Paperback)

Evelyn divorced her retired pro-football player husband when she could no longer deal with his lying and cheating ways. As for their pre-nuptial agreement, the judge ruled in Evelyn's favor due to his treatment of her during their marriage. As a way to "help" other women get back at their cheating husbands, Evelyn decides to open an escort business. But, while she is plotting revenge somehow love happens.

This book rated a 3 for a number of reasons. First, the author could have developed the storyline more. I should have been more of a back story on the relationship between Andrew and his father. Next there were a quiet a few typographical errors. This book was in need of some major editing. And, the last but not least the cover art was just lacking. It looked very basic, dull and did not convey what the story was about. Overall, this was a quick read with a plot that will keep the reader interested.

This review is from: Madam Eve (Paperback)

This book was very well put together. The story had a different twist
for the plot and followed through very well. There were some typos but this did not take away from the story. I enjoyed reading it and it was a quick read.
