Calling His Bluff

The Kings: Royal Flush, Book 2

De: Charlie Cochet

Narrado por: Greg Boudreaux

Welcome to the Royal Flush series, where love is the ultimate gamble.

Ryden Foster is a Marine scarred by a painful past of loss and hardship, but with the support of his Four Kings Security family, he’s finally healing. As he rebuilds his life, the only thing he enjoys more than his job is sparring with Jay Starling, Ward Kingston’s flashy executive assistant. Their longstanding feud is filled with sharp banter, weaponized romance novels, and a heat neither will acknowledge.

Jay is organized, efficient, and always in control, except when it comes to Ryden, the brash Marine with a talent for getting under his skin. When a Marine wedding and a client’s murder are linked, Jay and Ryden are pulled into something far more dangerous than petty rivalry. After a chilling encounter, Jay sees a side of Ryden he wasn’t prepared for, one his heart can’t ignore.

As Ryden and Jay join the Kings on a perilous mission, surviving means risking more than just their lives. It means trusting each other with their hearts.

An enemies-to-lovers, opposites attract romance filled with found family shenanigans and high-stakes action.

Content Warning: Please note this story mentions a past suicide attempt.

Favorite of this side series

More plot than romance but it’s been building for a while and it was enjoyable!

hope to see more from these characters

I have been waiting anxiously for this book, and I must say I was not disappointed. these characters have become like friends. I do hope to see more adventures with them

Good book

A few questionable things happened (nothing bad) but overall a good story. Greg Boudreaux is 1 of my favorite narrators, and he did not disappoint.

FINALLY!!!

I’ve been rooting for Ryden since he first showed up at the end of Lucky and Mason’s story and every glimpse we’ve had of him and Jay pulling pigtails has upped my anticipation for this book. Far more plot-heavy than romance-focused than previous books in the preceding series but it wasn’t really necessary because we’ve seen their relationship develop in fits and starts and small snippets for a looooooong time. Ryden and Jay are so perfect, reminiscent of Lucky and Mason, and I love seeing the whole gang back together. *finally*

10/10

Aahhh I was waiting so long for this to drop, super cute story and I LOVE THE NARRATOR <3
