Mr. Bad Influence-Quick Review

Mr. Bad Influence by M.A. Foster

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There are some authors that I am predisposed to read no matter what they write. MA Foster is one of them. I love how she creates full worlds and characters that are so realistic, you feel like you could visit them at any time. Or, with the characters, you feel like you know them (or people exactly like them). Usually, her longer books (like Cougar and Baller) are individuals’ stories in a bigger world. Mr. Bad Influence is a short story, but she still manages to create relationships that are full and complex. Honestly, I’m sure her storyboards are complicated, and I often feel like I should draw family trees if I fully want to understand the connections. (I may or may not do that for the longer books – I’m not saying). But I liked how this one just sort of skims along. She hits the high points of the story, but still manages to give enough detail to make it engaging without slogging it down. I liked Parker’s feistiness – she pulled no punches (literally). And Cooper wasn’t exactly your typical billionaire playboy. Additionally, I really liked the message that there is someone who is the perfect fit for you – sometimes you just have to NOT be looking for them to find them. Good thought to have in mind. I loved this short story, and hope that there will be more from these characters.
