King checks Queen
This is the final book in the Old Money Roulette trilogy – This is where the game comes to its conclusion
First – I absolutely loved the backdrop to this story – there was just something magical in the way Bennett interwove a bit of darker history and imagery into this trilogy
Ace of Spades picked right up where we left off in King of Hearts
This is the final move in the game – the King currently holds the upper hand but he is well aware that the Ace can trump his play if the Queen is acquired and naturally the Queen is not quite as obliging as originally believed – love her tenacity
Elena has been presented with the possibility that her sister is dead and that all of this has been for naught – or is this another bluff? Has she been played, manipulated by the ultimate puppet master? Will she find the answers she seeks or will she be the gators next meal?
Elena is such a strong and independent heroine – witty, intelligent, kind but cruel when necessary, definitely not afraid to get her hands dirty.
Mateo what can you say about him – the man is literally a master of foreplay and deception – He has placed so many of the pieces on the game board and has moved each one to ensure that the outcome is to his benefit – Just wait until you get to the final scene – yeah I never saw it coming either
And the Ace of Spades so not telling this is one shock you need to receive on your own
If you enjoy your romances a bit twisted with a touch of darkness and a sprinkle of suspense then this trilogy is for you
~The old money roulette is a repetitive cycle of gorgeous, rich assholes fucking up other rich asshole’s lives while wearing the best designer clothes and sharing some bubbly with superficial smiling faces.~
Holy Siberian Sapsucker! We get the last draw of the game and what a finale. We know that Mateo is the King of Hearts and Elena his Queen of Diamonds, but we have yet to learn who holds the Ace of Spades. And what a shock it is when that last card is laid.
Mateo holds his cards close and remains the cunning, corrupt, insanely possessive male he was in the first two books. He also keeps his Queen close until the time is right to play their cards.
Elena is caught in a strategically played game about power and is slowly learning the rules. Surprisingly she has a dark side of her own that can rival her soon to be husband.
Those that know how to hold the power wield it like a sword. A power hungry individual will follow a path to their own destruction if they do not have the scruples to play the game.
4.5 Insanely Excellent Stars
The last book in the series and it starts right when the previous book left off. It is not a standalone, you need to read the previous books.
I love Natalie Bennett’s writing style. it is very descriptive and full of details and flows very well. Also I loved how each chapter starts with a card picture. Little details in a book that I always enjoy.
This book slowly reveals more of the game and it’s players. And I’ll can tell you that i didn’t see the twist coming. I was so surprised.
It is violent, bloody, gritty, but in the end also a love story. I really loved this series.
My favorite line : “You’re a bit twisted, but that doesn’t make you less then an angel, you just have fringed wings”
