Casino King by Rebecca Gannon
5.0
Thank you SO MUCH Rebecca Gannon for the ARC copy of your book.
The Godfather meets Lady Marmalade and I am OBSESSED!
This is the first book I read from this author and I’m honestly blown away.
Every page of this book was filled with intensity and intrigue.
Sexy Alpha Hero Alec and Freespirited Tessa collide in a series of events that had me biting my nails the entire time, not letting me put the book down at all.
He was darkness, she was light. He was tough and indestructible, she was the balm that softened his walls.
From the first chapter I was able to feel the anticipation and the silent chemistry they had even before they exchanged words.
I love it when a hero is so well written that you’re able to see how genuine the love and need is in his heart. Alec was crazy about Tessa and he proved it in every single page. He needed her in ways he didn’t even know at the beginning of the story. I was able to understand why he was so protective of her. The type of job he did, his responsibilities, his family name and all the world he lived in was enough reason for him to try to protect her at all costs. He was dominating but still he was able to appreciate the beauty of her freedom and strength.
Tessa was a badass. Her tragic past and lifestyle made her tough, but still she was a creative and passionate about her art. I loved how she found in Alec everything she thought she lost. Her angst and struggle was real to me and I was able ti feel all the emotions as the relationship got deeper and more intimate.
The steam of this book was off the charts. It was explosive and it evolved just as the relationship and the love between them began to grow.
This is a gangster strory, and it didn’t miss any action, suspense and secrets to be revealed. The entire package had the perfect combination to make this book equally beautiful and powerful. I felt like I was watching a movie from the golden age.
The ending had me craving for more of this family and I can’t wait for the next book on the series!
