Runner

Sapphire Duet, Book 1

By: Kay Riley

Narrated by: Jake Bordeaux, Bridget Bordeaux

Sapphire. The stone known for new love and commitment. To me, it means freedom. And I would destroy anyone who tries to take it away from me. Milina Porter is a name few know. Now, I’m a ghost who works in the shadows. Car heists is what my name is known for, and my reputation is infamous. Secrets haunt a past that I’ll do anything to keep buried. I’ve been running from a devil who makes death seem like a mercy. Now, I have a chance to escape him for good. Only, I can’t do it alone. I need to partner with others who share my expertise in heists. Which is how I ended up in Ridgewood to work with the Riot Crew. Stuck with men who are intent on running me out of their town. Our hate for each other is nearly as explosive as the raw tension bleeding between us. Their suspicions of me run as deep as my distrust for them. I need them even though I’ll never admit why. Once the job is done, I’ll disappear without a trace, and they’ll be nothing but a memory. No matter how hard they try to keep me here.

Intense and entertaining

I thoroughly enjoyed this fast-paced enemies to lovers book! The H is tough as nails and has been to hell and back in her short life. I couldn’t help cheering her on from the get-go. The guys wanted her and she wanted them as well but since they were each keeping big secrets from each other there’s no trust and loyalties are questioned. As events start to unfold it turns into an intense game of cat and mouse which had me biting my nails! There’s definitely more action than romance and steam but the steamy parts are pretty hot! Overall I found this book totally binge worthy and exciting and I can’t wait to listen to book 2!
