I gave this book 3.5 stars*I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for honest review*Great Exploitations sounded like a fun, intriguing read. It follows `Sienna Stevens' who works for a very exclusive organisation known as The Eves. This group of ladies work in the art of seduction and entrapment. Wives use the service to annul their pre-nup to their wealthy spouses, after they are caught in the act of infidelity set up of course by the Eve assigned to them.This was a short story and I liked how it was split into the different parts of the ruse.The Meet ~ meeting between the Eve and the jilted spouse to exchange details of the target.The Greet ~ the Eve sets her sights on the wayward husband and lures him in.The Heat ~ after the initial meeting, the Eve plays hard to get, to have the target wanting more.The Sheets ~ self explanatory, the pinnacle of the operation where photographic evidence is obtained of the cheating husband in the act with the Eve.The Sweet ~ deal is done, the Eve gets her pay, the wife has what she needs and the husband has no idea what is coming his way!I loved the author's writing style. `Sienna' came across as a confident self assured woman, good at what she does. I also liked the moments where `Sienna's background was introduced and we found out why she got involved with the Eve's in the first place and underneath that confident exterior she was in fact just an insecure lonely girl, wanting to make enough money to get out of the business and live a normal life.I would have liked to have learned more about `Sienna' as a real person, out with the Eve's- even her name was an alias. Although I do suspect over the next few books in the series we will get to know her better. At the end of this story, the man who broke `Sienna's heart comes back into her life as her next assignment. I look forward to her adventure in Seattle as this case is personal to her and we will find out a lot more.Good, short read about an interesting organisation. If infidelity isn't your thing don't be put off this book, read it in the way it is meant, for pure entertainment purposes, well worth the read! ~Ava
