Reckless Chance

Love over Murder, Book 3

De: J.D. Carothers

Narrado por: Kit Swann, Robert Hatchet

Murder is in the cards at one Vegas casino, but is love too?

All I wanted was one more hot night with the woman of my dreams. Instead, all I got was both of us drunk and accidently married at my resort.

Maybe this isn’t such a bad deal, since we must stay together for my inheritance, but how do I explain that to the new Mrs. Cartwright? If we could stop flirting, kissing, and taking this too far one too many times…

Don’t get me wrong, Lowri is gorgeous, smart, and spunky, but I don’t want a wife forever. Marriage isn’t for me. I’ve seen the pain it can cause, no matter what sparks fly between us. If I drag my feet long enough hopefully she can see the benefits for holding off on the annulment.

And as if I don’t have enough on my plate, I have a murder on the casino floor hitting the news and an employee threatening my livelihood. With shows falling apart, a royal party to plan, and learning I’m too close to the mafia…in an instant, I could lose everything my family built.

Will love be my lucky lady and deal me a better hand?

Reckless Chance is the third book in the Love Over Murders series. Each book is a standalone story featuring one couple’s journey to their guaranteed H.E.A. and no cliffhanger. The series is especially for lovers of swoony moments intertwined with a murder mystery.

Gripping and passionate

This is Sean and Lowri’s second chance at live story and one that ticked all the boxes for me.

From the first chapter to the last I was drawn into their story. Add in some familiar faces and it was a win/win for me.
This book was an entertaining listen with a good balance of suspense and romance. In fact I was on the edge of my seat whilst listening.

I liked the characters both separately and especially as a couple and the story was engaging.

The narration by Kit Swan and Robert Hatchett brought the characters to life for me. Their voices were easy to listen too and they brought all the passion, drama, romance and suspense to their performances.

Great narration

Accidental marriage
Murder mystery

Dual narration - Kit Swann & Robert Hatchet
Love these two narrators so much!

I really enjoyed this book.

Sean is a casino owner in Vegas and the best friend to a prince.
When Prince Evan calls to plan a party for his girlfriend Cassie, he also enlisted the help of Cassie’s best friend Lowri to help.

Sean and Lowri had a hot weekend a few months ago but said that was it just once. Until they are forced back into each others orbit they quickly realize they still have attraction. A drunken night in Vegas and a misunderstanding they end up married.

Sean finds out there is a marriage class to his inheritance and needs Lowri to stay with him longer. He gets her to stay by hiring her to be his lawyer.

This is a romance story with a murder mystery twist.

Good blend of romance and mystery

I admit that I gravitate toward romance. That said, Carothers tells a compelling story that is satisfying to both romance and mystery aficionados. Her characters have depth, and the story is interesting.

Note that this stands on its own. Although this is the third in the series, it doesn't require the previous stories to be enjoyable.

Accidental marriage, murdery mayhem, and major chemistry!

Reckless Chance is the third installment in JD Carothers’ Love Over Murder series, and it delivered the perfect blend of romance, chaos, and suspense. This time we follow Sean, the owner of a luxury hotel, and Lowri, a successful lawyer. After a past fling that never quite fizzled out, they’re thrown back together to help plan a celebration for mutual friends… and things spiral fast.

One wild night out, some drinks, and, oops, they wake up married. Due to legal complications (that I won’t spoil), they’re forced to stay married for three months. And during that time? Let’s just say the drama doesn’t stop at their relationship. The hotel becomes a magnet for mysterious and unfortunate incidents, keeping the stakes high and the tension thick.

Their chemistry is undeniable, and watching their relationship evolve amidst all the chaos was such a satisfying ride. There’s just enough angst to keep it interesting, balanced perfectly with emotional depth and heat.

Now let’s talk about the audiobook Robert Hatchet and Kit Swann were phenomenal. This was my first time hearing either of them, and they absolutely nailed their performances. They brought so much personality and emotion to Sean and Lowri that I couldn’t imagine the characters without their voices. Their duet narration elevated the story and made it even more immersive.

If you’re into forced proximity, accidental marriage, and romance tangled with a thread of suspense, Reckless Chance is a fantastic listen!

This series is NOT to be missed!!

Story - ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Spice - 🌶🌶
Narration - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Reckless Chance is book #3 in the Love Over Murder series. Sean is the owner of The Athena, a hotel/casino in Vegas. Lowrie is back in town to plan a party for her bestie, Cassie (from book #1). These two decide to forget their rule of "no seconds" after hooking up months ago, spend a night drinking, and wake up married. Neither want a relationship of ANY kind because of their parents, but for completely different reasons. Sabotage, secrets, and second thoughts on love keep things hopping for this couple. The author has delivered a fantastic series of romantic suspense that keeps your attention from start to finish. Loved this!

The narration is fantastic. I have mad love for Robert Hatchet and his versatility. Kit Swann isn't a new narrator to me, but I don't hear her near enough for my liking. These two were so dang good! 5/5 stars!!!
