Love Under Cover (Jennifer Hunter #2)
by
Jessica Brody (Goodreads Author)
Can a former fidelity inspector tear herself away from her old calling for the sake of the perfect guy, or is the temptation to conduct love under cover just too strong?
Jennifer Hunter never saw herself as the relationship type. After all, she’d spent the last two years of her life as an undercover fidelity inspector, hired to test men’s faithfulness—not exactly the kind o...more

Jessica Hunter is President of the Hawthorn Agency; a not so ordinary business. It’s not often you hear about a team of five fidelity inspectors with the sole objective of revealing low down and dirty cheating men and the occasional dishonest woman. Jessica Hunter promised her boyfriend never to take on another assignment where she’d potentially become an intentional mistress and she does so without a difficulty- for a while. She resists the urge to become personally involved in her work instead...more
I was lucky enough to win a copy from First Reads!
I loved The Fidelity Files. I read it in one day when I was home sick. In Love Under Cover, Jennifer aka Ashlyn sets up the Hawthorne Agency and hires fidelity investigators to do the inspections since she is now seriously dating Jamie. She promises not to do anymore fidelity inspections, and their relationship progresses and Jamie proposes.
In the midst of Jen freaking about planning a wedding and settling down, a situation soon arises where Jenn...more

This book was almost painful reading. There was so little trust between the people in it, so much drama, paranoia… It was a bit much to be honest, but with a book about cheating spouses I guess you can’t really expect much more. The way the main character Jennifer acted on occasion was just stupid really. Saying that though the book was also kind of intriguing and I wanted to find out what happened to everybody.

This is the sequel to the The Fidelity Files which is a book that I love, I have read it a few times even and I don't read books twice lately. There is rumor that this book and the original at being made into the premise for a tv show and I think that could be amusing.
This book picks up around where the afterwards, few month later section of The Fidelity Files ends. Jennifer Hunter has given up inspecting herself for a relationship with Jamie. She runs an agency now and sends her inspectors out...more

Like her other book, I haven't the faintest idea where this book goes under. It is kind of like chick-lit, but again, I don't have a bookshelf for that. It doesn't seem a romance novel, either. *shrug*
The writing style still annoys me a bit. It's written in present tense, but I've read other books in present tense. It's not that common, but something I'm slowly getting used to. I suppose it's the inner musing we're exposed to that irks me. The inner monologue gets to be too much sometimes. I kno...more

I didn't read the first book in this series so at first, I was wondering if that would somehow disrupt my way of reading. Forutnately, however, though the two books are related, you definitely don't need to read the first novel to understand this one.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book especially with the idea of being a fidelity inspector. It was lots of fun to read how Jennifer and her co-workers would "seduce" men or women to make sure that they are loyal to their spouse. Though it was unsettling...more

The author leaves nothing unsaid as if she does not trust the reader to draw any inferences. Much of the obvious was stated and restated in other words - felt like a student padding words in a term paper. The only thing never explained was how the fidelity inspections were documented to stand up in court - just on the word of the inspector?!
That just bothered me as so much was built on that unlikely premise.

In this sequel to The Fidelity Files, Jen is caught between two choices--keeping her promise to her boyfriend and "retiring" from her compromising job, or going back to work and risk losing him.
The plot was a bit predictable, but not enough for me to put it down. Overall, it was a good beach read. I'll be on the look-out for more books by this author!

Jennifer or Ashlynn, as she prefers for work purposes, runs a fidelity inspection service, which tests prospective and current spouses to see if they really are "foresaking all others." Her choice of profession is linked to her father's cheating ways, and her fiance finds her work concerning--so concerning he may call off the engagement.
Easy easy reading. Predictable but enjoyable. I think I knew how Love Under Cover would end by the second chapter! But I continued to read and (in less than 24 hours) finished it regardless. Just goes to show.
Really good read. Intersting plot altogether--- sortof a blah ending..... but definitely worth it!
I liked this book. It had highs and many lows, but it was really interesting.
This is one of the books Laura & Hava gave me for my birthday. It was a quick, light read.
This is an enjoyable, page-turning sequel to The Fidelity Files.

Ugh.
I went through so much to get this book and perhaps that is why I was so thoroughly disappointed when it turned out to be much much less than I had expected. Bummer.
The premise seemed promising, but ended up being somewhat predictable. And I find it so annoying to read about a whiny self made business woman with love complications that just won't do what she needs to do, worrying about what everyone else wants.
Not only that but the receptiveness of information, as if I hadn't just read that...more

A fun romance novel
Good book, not not too "on the edge of your seat."
like her other book it was a good read part 2 to the fidelity files
I really do not understand why this book is getting such low ratings? Are we reading the same book? Have I missed something out? I thought it was great. An inventive storyline with a cute romance intertwined.
