karuwus 's review for:
Cash Plays
by Cordelia Kingsbridge
4 ouch stars
this was a painful read.
this absolutely wasn’t a this-is-so-bad-it-hurts read. i mean, it kinda was, but not in quality. this is was really well-written and gritty account on a bunch of physical altercations and a character i love relapsing into deep addiction.
i was so excited after the previous book that i refused to read the summary because i didn’t want any spoilers, but it still wouldn’t really let me know how difficult it was to read about dominic lose the war to his addiction and go on a spiral. i actually don’t advice anyone that struggles with addiction to read Cash Plays, it was rough.
it was still a really good read, even if i had to skim the pages sometimes (which docked a whole star for me), i’m still in love with this author’s work, though, and i’m already devastated that they apparently haven’t been active since 2020 (hope to god she’s alright).
the way dominic managed to articulate how difficult it was to be put on a pedestal, how he feels he’s not allowed to have bad days, is something i understand all too well... and then this book ended on a worrying note, specifically after all the progression of character for both levi and dom, and how deeply in love they are by this point. both made this a devastating read, to be honest.
but, again, i’m super excited to see where the next book is going and so happy that this series embodies so much of what i love about cop thrillers.
