Pawns in the Bishop's Game

Checkmate, Book 1

De: Emilia Finn

Narrado por: Dane Anderson, Audrey Obeyn

“When my family asks, ‘does that boy have a job?’ am I allowed to answer that you’re a killer, or should I let you take the lead on that?”

Kane Bishop is everything women are warned about.
He’s a professional enforcer for a dangerous cartel built upon drugs, guns, and violence, and according to the files littering my desk, it’s a sure bet he boasts a body count that has nothing to do with the women who’ve passed through his bed.

I should know better than to step into his world.
God knows my law degree vouches for the fact I have a brain and a modicum of common sense.

And yet, here I am, hiding from my cop brother and half naked in Kane’s apartment while he stitches me up and we both pretend we aren’t desperate for a way out.

Is it possible for the criminal and the good girl to have a happily ever after?
Probably not.

But will I fight for us until the bitter end?
With every breath in my body.

Pawns in the Bishop's Game is book 1 in the spicy and heart-pounding Checkmate Series, and can be read as a complete standalone. This book is intended for an 18+ audience and contains graphic scenes that may be disturbing to readers.

Fun and flirty adventure

I have read this book with my eyeballs a couple of times but it’s been a while. I am so glad it was just as good a few years later being able to earball read. I love that one of my favorite series is being produced on audible! Kane’s voice was deep and gravely in just the right way. His fun and flirty banter came through. This book is quite funny! Jess’s voice was very dimensional. She had to portray anger, worry, outrage, grief, sass, and so many other emotions. It was very well done. I’m hoping it will gain much more traction and get some hype it deserves with audible being an option. Dual narration was done well.
