A Little Bit of Crazy
Synopsis
I'm strong, I'm passionate, I'm free.
At least I was until my father asked me to marry his handsome, charming and completely gorgeous right hand man who was also a sort of friend to myself. I agreed of course, mainly because it was his last dying wish to see me with someone who he knew would treat me well.
Will I love him? Will I hate him?
Maybe both with a little bit of crazy
I know I'll fail, I'm selfish, self-centered and shallow. I just hope he's prepared for when I do.
This is our story, it has: a Channing Tatum poster, a long lost brother, a bony blonde and a promiscuous female friend, plus a hot shot star and the one and only sinus blocker Sylvia. Now throw in a crazy lady and a man who would do anything for her (meaning myself and James) and you have our story. Or the first part of it.
A Little Bit of Us
Synopsis
I remember the time I was free, I didn't care to love, I only cared about myself.
Now I'm stuck. Stuck with a man who destroyed my heart, stuck in a protective bubble that keeps me from reality.
What happens when that bubble pops?
What happens when reality hits me in the face?
How will I cope with my new life, my new future?
Will I ever forgive James? I want to... but what if I can't?
So many questions... .read the concluding part of mine and James' story for the answers. Will we get our HEA?
Review
A Little Bit of Crazy is roughly about Maya, a twenty something young woman with the world at her feet, she is rich, pampered and arrogant. When she's asked by her father on his death bed to marry his right hand man, she reacts by running off to Vegas. This book was a surprise because I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. The writing is erratic and impossible to follow at times but it is very addictive.
Maya is a self centered narcissist, her quest for freedom in an arranged marriage brings unexpected pleasure and chaos. She also acts in such a way that its impossible to ignore or even dislike her. This book needed a great editor to turn it into a great read. Although it is based in America, there are so many elements that are too English to work for an American audience. I'm not sure why an English author would set her book in another country but this author does and I'm not sure whether it adds or takes away anything from the book. There's nothing American about this book apart from the setting, the humor and the mannerisms are too English.
Further I got the feeling that the author was living through Maya's escapades. She is childish and intentionally irritating but still captivating. The only book I can compare A Little Bit of Crazy would be Fifty Shades of Grey, not because of its explicit content but because it has the same addictive vibe as Fifty. The plot isn't great, the characters are childish and its hard to imagine why anyone would write such a book but I was caught up in the madness and I enjoyed it.
A.E Murphy a young author who needs to grow into her own words. A Little Bit Of Crazy lacked organisation and editing.This is a great debut and I look forward to reading more of the author's work because I think she is very talented.
