This book presents a spicy and entertaining take on revenge and unexpected romance. Eva’s determination to take control of her situation makes her a relatable and engaging protagonist, while Ethan’s loyal yet grumpy demeanor adds a nice contrast that drives the chemistry between them. Their plan for a steamy, vengeful fling quickly escalates into something deeper, and the tension is both fun and captivating. However, the storyline sometimes veers into predictable territory, especially with the classic love triangle dynamics.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me free access to the advanced digital copy of this book.
This was a great read!

Lots of spice in this book! The plot was convoluted and not particularly realistic. I didn’t really care about any of the characters.

Spicy, fun and unputdownable!! I loveddd the characters and their dynamic. The chemistry was amazing!! Loved it!!

Fun and engaging. The characters were well developed and the plot kept me laughing and smiling throughout. I wasn’t as into the chemistry as I had hoped, but I don’t think there was any particular issue with it beyond my personal tastes. I’m sure many will enjoy THE REVENGE PACT and I look forward to seeing what else the author produces.

The Revenge Pact was an introduction to Brooke Stanton for me and I really enjoyed this read!
It was a fun and cute romance full of drama and some spice! Definitely some swooning over Ethan and laughing out loud at Eva.

While I definitely object to the main premise of this book, I will try to be honest in the review without having this belief taint my opinion.

The entirety of the plot is surface level - I don't remember a single outstanding characteristic of any specific character. The story could have been easily told without the issues of fraud and infidelity. The characters I was supposed to root for didn't even feel right for each other and it was almost as if they had been forced together to fulfill the goals and not because they actually liked one another all that much.

3.5 stars. Thanks to Netgalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for the E-ARC. If cheating is a trigger for you then dont read this book. This book was so much fun even though it was a heavy topic they didnt really go too heavy into it making this book fun and a easy read. I read it in a couple of hours because life and I just breezed thru it. Cant wait to read the next one

Deceitful, spiteful, and full of revenge! If you are a revenge girlie who loves the main characters in stories getting back at one another, with a little spice built in, this book is for you! I knew going in that revenge was the main idea, but discovered that it just really isn’t for me. It was a cute story and had great plot points, but the lying and deceiving is just not my game. Would recommend to someone who doesn’t mind that. Thanks for the opportunity to read!

Eva wants to get back at her husband for cheating on her, she wants revenge which is where Ethan can help as the betrayed best fried. What neither expects is what happens between them while they are plotting. I liked how it was told from both points of view. A great read, looking forward to more from this author.

It was such a cute and fun read! The story follows Eva Hart, who finds out on her wedding day that her husband Joe is cheating on her with his ex-girlfriend. To make matters worse, Eva can't leave Joe because she would lose her visa. So, what does she do? She makes a plan to get revenge! And who does she team up with? None other than Joe's best friend Ethan.

this book just wasnt for me. I dont enjoy reading about cheating so this wasnt my favorite. I also didnt like the dialogue.

The Revenge Pact starts immediately with crazy action and just continued throughout. It was a fun book to read but if you step back too much and think about it, there was so much childish behavior and a lack of character development throughout. I wish less time had been given to Joe and Ashley and more time to Ethan and Eva- learning who they were and watching them go from lust to love .

This was an ARC I received recently, so thank you! The story follows Eva who has just gotten married to the love of her life, or so she thought. When she finds out that her husband is sleeping with his ex! Not only is this extremely heartbreaking, but ruins with her visa plans, so she pretends that she doesn’t know. Not only that, but she comes up with multiple plans to get back at him, and thinks that his best friend is the best way to get back at him. As they start to get to know each other, they’re both surprised by the chemistry they have for one another. When Eva suggests they sleep with one another as the perfect double cross, Ethan is reluctant to let things go that far. Instead, he’s wondering how to turn whatever they currently have into something more long term.
I feel like this story was fast paced, fun, and overall an enjoyable read. My favorite character was 100% Ethan. Completely had my heart. 3.75 ⭐️s

Okay so Eva is about to get married. Like.. she is in the white dress and everything when she finds out that he soon be.. jk her husband is hooking up with her frenemy. He world comes crazy down. Suddenly it’s hard to breathe or think. Little did she expect that her husband best friend would find her in the state of complete meltdown. He confides in her that joe betrayed him as well. This leads the duo to enter a pact for revenge. Little did they know that spending so much time with one another would change their view about each other.

This was a fun read!! There is a lot of drama. Eva is hilarious at times. Her dedication to the plan is on point. Ethan is swoon worthy. He wants to protect her and loves her brand of crazy. Joe and Ashley both suck period. Savi is fun. I love how supportive she is to Ethan. Rachel is the BFF everyone needs. I found myself chuckling a lot. The spiders were hilarious!! I would die !!💀 The spice 🌶️was there for sure!! 🥵 Although I did find myself enjoying some of the sex scene I was a little thrown. I think maybe how it was worded. I usually like to flow through my books but if a word throws me off i have to redirect my thoughts.

Overall it was a fun read. Definitely would recommend to check it out.

I received a copy of this book for an honest review. Thank you to NetGalley.

I really enjoyed this book. I feel in love with the characters and storyline. I had never read anything by Brooke Stanton before, but I will definitely be on the look out for anything else by this author!

Such a cute fun story! If I found out my husband was cheating with his ex on my wedding day, I would have lost it! But poor Eva, she could t exactly walk away because then she loses her visa! Next best thing for revenge, get with my husbands best friend right?!
What girl wouldn’t want revenge?! Or to Atleast go for the guy who didn’t want his best friend to marry her anyways!

I read reviews prior and I was a little nervous about this one but I can’t see why there were some bad reviews! I absolutely loved it!

<b>POV:</b> 1st person, dual POV

<b>TWs:</b> <b><u><i>cheating</b></u></i>… like a lot, manipulation, body shaming, mental health (anxiety)
<b>standalone:</b> yes
<b>final thoughts</b>: wow. I didn’t enjoy almost anything from this book which was super disappointing. I liked the book description but was expecting something completely different than what was delivered. The cheating was so over the top and was coming at you from every angle and it was very uncomfortable to read.
There were several open-door spice scenes but the wording was just so cringy and awkward (in my opinion) that I really had a hard time reading it.
Overall, I felt like there were so many plot holes that left the book needing SO MUCH MORE and the actions made every single character unlovable to me. Super disappointed but it might be someone else’s cup of tea!

A steamy revenge enemies to lovers novel. A decent read and a fairly short book which made it more enjoyable and easy to read. Loved the dual POV and there were some hilarious laugh out loud scenes thrown in. The only downside is that it read as if it was a sequel to a previous book [not sure if it is or not] there were a lot of plot holes and unexplained scenes etc..

Thanks to NetGalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-Op for the chance to read this book.

This was a super quick read. Very steamy - a little crude in some instances - but still a sweet romance. I liked the main characters and wouldn't mind more linked stories featuring Rachel and Savi.
There's not much better than a story where a cheating partner gets their just desserts!
