Introducing book 1 in the new Checkmate Duet Series from a secret duo of romance authors under the USA Today bestselling pseudonym, Kennedy Fox!

This friends to lovers romance will have you swooning and laughing from the first to the last page! Are you ready to play the game?

Drew Fisher is the type of guy every girl wants.

Noble police officer by day, charming prince by night.

He has no idea the effect he has on women, especially me—his little sister’s best friend.

I’m the blonde Southern belle who lives up to the cliché, except I have my own quirks. I’m smart as a whip, can change my own oil, and recite The Pledge of Allegiance backward, but he doesn’t see that girl.

It’d be easier to forget him if he wasn’t my roommate and if the first thing I saw in the morning wasn’t his shirtless body covered in tattoos. I’ve crushed on him since the day we met, but he’s made it perfectly clear where we stand. Just friends.

I know I need to move on and accept that his feelings will never be mutual, but every day he smiles at me, I’m left dreaming of what if.

He has girl issues, and I’ve got a crush I can’t deny.

We’re friends, but I want more.

One drunken hookup leaves us with much more than a platonic friendship. Pretending it never happened proves to be more difficult than anticipated.

A crazy ex-girlfriend, a dangerous war of stolen glances, and passionate kisses leads to the most reckless battle yet. I won’t be a pawn in his game, but I’ll play by his rules if it will show him I’m the one worth breaking them for.

Checkmate, Prince Charming.

*Recommend for ages 18+ due to sexual content and adult language.*

**This is book 1 of 2 in the Checkmate Duet Series–a friends to lovers romance. Highly recommended to read the Checkmate Duet, This is War and This is Love first, but not necessary. This can read as a standalone duet.**

*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

**Carla’s Four Star Review

This is the first book in the Checkmate Duet series, and it is Drew and Courtney’s story.

We were first introduced to this dynamic duo in This is War which was Travis and Viola’s story. Drew is Viola’s brother, and Courtney is her best friend. Oh Drew. He is a drop dead gorgeous alpha male, and the icing on that stud muffin (pun intended) is the fact that he is a cop. I ask you, who in their right mind doesn’t love a man in uniform? Then there’s Courtney. That girl is full of sass and downright hilarious. She has been in love with Drew from the moment they met, but Drew has always had a girlfriend-an evil manipulative skank named Mia. However, their relationship has always been tumultuous at best. Courtney is Drew’s roommate, and one of his best friends, so when he has an erotic dream starring her, he is confused and starts to really see her for the beautiful, sexy woman she is. As these two begin to build a relationship that goes way beyond friendship, the both of them couldn’t be happier. Things are great until Mia decides that she is not done with Drew yet. My advice? Hold on tight because the ride is about to get crazy.

Gah, I really enjoyed this book! Drew and Courtney’s story is filled with extreme chemistry, and sex scenes that are hot enough to melt your kindle! Of course, this is book one in a duet, so expect the mother of all cliffhangers, but the good news is the next book, Checkmate-This is Effortless, is due to be released in April, so we won’t have to wait too long to find out how this awesome story plays out!

Renee’s 4 Star Review:

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports. 

This is he first book in Kennedy Fox’s The Checkmate Duet Series. 

Drew Fisher. Noble police officer by day, charming prince by night. He’s perfection and all the ladies want him. Especially his little sisters best friend Courtney. She’s a southern belle who can turn a wrench on a car and live by her own rules. He doesn’t see that girl though He just sees his sisters best friend and his roommate. They are friends but Courtney wants more. 

If you’ve read the Kennedy Fox books This is War and This is Love. You do not have read those books first to read Checkmate: This is Reckless but they are amazing stories worth reading. I loved Drew and Courtney and the massive crush she had on Drew in this books so I knew this would be a good story. Drew is the good looking swoon worthy male every girl who sees him wants. Courtney is hilarious and watch her crush on Drew was so much fun and frustrating be sue I want them together so bad. That’s the fun of reading. To get so involved In a story your right there beside the characters. Drew for his part has never returned Courtney’s feelings. She’s like a little sister to him since she is actually his sisters best friend. They are actually best friends too and then the lines of that relationship begin to blur for Drew. Add in a crazy ex-girlfriend and you’ve got one heck of a read. One that might actually have you reading as fast as you can all while praying your kindle doesn’t melt from the hotness that is Drew and Courtney.

I so can not wait to have to second book Checkmate: This is Effortless in my hot little hands. It is a duet so you know your going to be left wanting more.
