Publisher's summary

Former Special Forces Green Beret, Sacha “Joker” Wilder, is well-versed on the subject of demolitions. As a silent partner of Four Kings Security, Joker spends his days working alongside his brothers-in-arms and his best boy, Chip - a bomb-sniffing Belgian Malinois with sass. Years of military and private security experience have prepared Joker for almost anything, except the explosive attraction between him and Giovanni Galanos.

When Gio returns from his travels abroad, everyone is charmed by the handsome billionaire philanthropist, but in Joker’s experience, anyone who’s too good to be true usually is. Gio is hiding something, but the more time Joker spends around Gio, the more his walls start crumbling, leaving him exposed and at risk of losing his heart, something he swore he would never do. Love is for suckers, and that’s not him.

For years Gio has dedicated his life to his charity work, helping people around the globe, but when things go horribly wrong during one particular trip, Gio decides it’s time to come home for good. The desire for family, and a certain ex-Green Beret with a chip on his shoulder, has Gio eager to restart his life Stateside. For all of Sacha’s blustering and griping, no one makes Gio feel safer. If only Sacha could see how right they are for each other.

Danger lurks in the shadows as someone sets their sights on Gio, and secrets are forced into the light. If Gio and Joker are to have any kind of future together, they’ll have to face difficult truths, because where love is concerned, it’ll take more than sleight of hand to make things work.

The Kings: Wild Cards series is a spin-off of the Four Kings Security series.

One more great hand of wildcards

Joker's and Gio's story was so good! You can expect the usual suspense and thrills, romance, scorching hot sex scenes, true love and friendship. Add in Chip's antics and the rest of the team's shenanigans, and it gets even more perfect.
I so recommend this séries, and I can't wait for the next book. I need to know what happens with Saint and Val, and also to cousin Gage!

Joker and Gio

I loved this series so so much!! I love how Joker and Gio interacted with each other. Charlie is amazing and set it up for the next series that I can't wait for! Greg Boudreaux did an awesome job with it. I will definitely listen to this again.

Love Joker & Gio

I love Joker and Gio! I have to admit liking Joker's reluctance to find any redeeming qualities to Gio at first. So it was wonderful seeing Joker realize he was wrong. This book has a little of all the feels. I enjoyed this series and would love more books with these men! (Please, please, please? With sugar on top?)

The wait was worth it

I am a huge fan of this series. I hope there will be more adventures with the four kings, wild cards and their boyfriend collectives! I was dying of anticipation for this installment and I have to say it was definitely worth it. the chemistry between the two was no doubt something hot and sizzling. I thought it was kind of weird but cute that Gio was already infatuated with Joker even before they truly met face to face. I want all of them to marry and see more adventures from them and from any universe Charlie Cochet can think up.

A fabulous read, I couldn't put it down.

I adored this grumpy special forces guy who was never going to fall in love and the guy who was determined to get him from the moment he heard his voice. Great book whether you read it or listen to it.

Wonderful series

I’ve been so pleased I decided to pick up these series. Gio and Joker were wonderful and their side kicks too.

Of course Greg Boudreaux narration was perfection! He’s the reason I started this listen in the first place!

Everything I hope for from a Charlie Cochet novel!

I have loved this series since the first Four Kings security book came out! It's one of my favorite series and I absolutely adore each and every one of the characters and their partners! That being said, this book absolutely meets all of my expectations for a Charlie Cochet novel, and those standards are incredibly high! It's sweet, sexy, and packed full of action! I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for this couple, and she didn't disappoint what I was waiting for based on what she subtly alluded to in past books! Greg Boudreaux is my all-time favorite narrator, and he did a spectacular job this time as well!
Thank you both for giving me a break from real life for a few hours!
