Decoys, Inc. is a lighthearted story about a young woman putting her sleuthing skills to work as she helps the female population test whether or not their men will cheat if given the opportunity. Deeva McCoy is floundering in a less than satisfying job when her life seems to go from bad to worse when she's fired. While consoling herself at home, she's sucked into the daytime drama of a popular talk show where unsuspecting men are set up by a sexy decoy on live television. This gives Deeva an idea, and soon she unleashes an entrepreneurial brainstorm and is running her own business--DeCoys, Inc. Soon, women are paying her to see if their men are potential cheaters. After meeting Tristan Savage and spending what she believed to be an incredible weekend together, her world seems to shatter once more when Monday morning the woman sitting across from her has requested her services to investigate him. Unable to fight her mutual attraction, Deeva finds herself breaking one of her primary rules of business as she continues her relationship with Tristan. But when Tristan finds out about her line of work and the possible reason behind their meeting, the passionate relationship they've developed is at risk. With all the style, colorful characters, and unforgettable moments that readers love, Decoys, Inc. exposes the danger of mixing pleasure with business.
I am not sure what readers are looking for in books these days, but I REALLY enjoyed this book. I am an avid Urban Fiction Reader and I have come across several books by different authors with the same story just different characters. Decoys, Inc was my twist, I didn't need to know detail for detail what happened in Deeva's past relationship and I didn't question why she feel really quickly for Tristan. What happened to Love at 1st site, haven't we all been in Tristan's situation before. Sure we have and the story was so real until I didn't question any of the characters motives. I was SO MAD at Tristan for getting that mad at Deeva, although I did think she needed to tell him before. And LORD have mercy Lisa - I could feel myself slapping her through the pages of the books. Cheekes you've done it again. Keep up the good work!
