Mafia Romance

This book picks up after Wild Card and doesn't disappoint. The FMC, Ace, was smart and resilient. The MMC, King, was dealing with his missing sister and a target on his back. Some parts had me SMH, but they all came together in the end. I’m looking forward to Jack’s story.

On the Edge of Your Seat

This is a continuation of Ace and Kingston's story, and it will have you at the edge of your seat.

I devoured this book and loved it so much. Being a darker than what I am use to reading from Kelsie makes it that much better. I love when an author will switch it up a bit. Mafia is one of those tropes I can read and love more than I think.

This audio was so good to listen to. Aaron and Kelsey are quickly becoming a favorite duo of mine. They read this one on mark! The way that they narrate the emotions in this book is fantastic.
I am hooked to this series!!

Dark King

I absolutely loved reading Dark King but listening to it was even better. The Narraters were fantastic. I love this Mafia series. Cannot wait to listen to the next one.

again i loveeee the narrators! the story was fab! i really cant wait for more in this series!

Brilliant Story & Narration🎧 A Riveting & Thrill!

Wow, just wow, this is one amazing story and series! Kelsie Rae does not disappoint in her second book of her “Advantage Play” series. This book follows “Wild Card” be sure read or listen to that before this, this book picks up right where that leaves off, with Kingston having to make a tough decision. Family always came first but will he have to sacrifice the woman who not only intrigues but is starting to fall for. Ace is fearless and willing to do what she has to do to get back at the monster who stole her life and now her best friend too. I loved how everything plays out in this series, all the great plot twists, the drama, the angst, the thrilling suspense and the great romance that developed between Ace and Kingston. I highly recommend this book and series, it will take you to the edge of your seat at times, have you rooting for Ace to not only rid the evil Burlone but for her relationship with the Dark King. Kelsie Rae thank you for this awesome book and series, I loved every word of it.

Kesey Navarro and Aaron Shedlock are fantastic narrators and voice artists. They continue to bring these characters and their story to life and their portrayal of them is perfection, sounding exactly as I picture them. They set the perfect tone for the story, capture the characters emotions, their passion and attitude, which is heard in their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen🎧

Fantastic!

I could not wait to start this second book of the Advantage Play series! This is my kind of listen! Romance, suspense, a little angst, a lot of action, the perfect story for my ears! You have to listen to book one to understand what is happening, so grab that if you haven't yet. Kingston has a lot on his plate. He is watching his rivals, but now it's personal. His sister is gone and as it should be, family comes first. He will do whatever it takes to bring his sister home. And with the help of some unlikely candidates, and the love of a good woman, he is geared up and ready to go. Plot twists and turns keep the suspense high, and surprises coming. And such sweet revenge! Rae has a knack for writing this kind of story, and I am looking forward to what she has coming next with Little Bird.

Aaron Shedlock and Kelsey Navarro continue their incredible narration. These two compliment each other well and hone in on the characters so believably that it's like a movie playing. Loved this book!

I love this Series!!

This is the second book in the Advantage Play Series, an amazing Mafia Romance and Romantic Suspense. I loved the first book so much! and this book is as great as the first book in the Series. I love Ace and King together! They are great strong characters. The secondary characters are also great and intriguing. They have an important part in this story. This story is very well written, suspenseful, fast-paced and captivating. Now, I can't wait for the next book in the Series, Little Bird! Aaron Shedlock and Kelsey Navarro did an outstanding job with the narration. I enjoyed it. I HIGHLY recommend this Series.
