This is a trio of books by Carolina Jax, MercyAnn Summers, and V.R. Tennent. We have: The Biggest Risk, Grayson, and Chameleon.
They are all, dark romcoms, enemies to lovers, she falls first, O/P FMC, unhinged FMC, banter, found family, dual POV.
Each of the short stories focuses on one specific character. Chameleon focuses on Cami aka Camilla.The Biggest Risk focuses on Cash. And Greyson focuses on Greyson. (Of course, because who else could a short story called Greyson be focused on. lol)
Chameleon
MercyAnn Summers
I will start by saying that the dynamic between Cami and Kaian is intense, and the chemistry is just amazing. Their relationship is this explosive mix of lust and hate. It is fuelled by their shared history that is both compelling and twisted. Cami is unhinged and unapologetic. She is bold and loves the chaos that surrounds her. Kaian, he hates with a passion everything that Cami stands for. He despises her methods, her courage, and yet, no matter what, he just can't get away from her. She's under his skin, loving the chaos she brings into his life, turning his life upside down all the time, ensuring that all he can do is think about her.
There is this intoxicating push, and pull between them is addicting and, at the same time, befuddling, especially for Kaian. He's the one who hates fighting all the time, especially when he's being forced to fight with desire. He feels like he's always fighting with Cami. And they have to survive a dangerous underworld full of criminals that surround them.
Sadly, they have both known what it feels to lose someone, and yet they have walked through the fires of trauma and come out the other side stronger. Through the tension and chaos, we get a bit of vulnerability that brings them closer in ways neither of them ever thought.
Cami and Kaian are normally oil and water. They just don't work together. But, it is their imperfections, intensity, their fire. That's what brings them together and binds them together.
The Biggest Risk
Carolina Jax
This novella focuses on our MMC 'Cash' or Cassius O'Brien. (Age 36), and honestly, he makes the perfect book boyfriend. And I can pretend that I am ten years younger and he is the perfect match for me. He is genuine, has a big heart, is silly, trustworthy, and loyal. Honestly, he is everything that you want in a partner. OMG, I have Cash, I married Cash, and I just realized that this description fits my husband perfectly.
Now we have our FMC Angelina Hunter (age 25) she is bound and determined to achieve her goals, and she does not plan to alter her goals, and that is even for love. Right now, she is on the path of achieving her dream career. So, it's hard for her to alter her path.
Cash and Angelina are so close to getting everything they have ever wanted, and I loved it all. I loved diving into this world, Cash is ever the Casanova, and he'll do anything to get the girl. And I honestly can't get enough.
Greyson
V.R. Tennent
James Greyson (age 35) is our MMC in this one, and he is a professional assassin and I loved how different that he is from the other two in this one. I was here for it, too.
Our FMC in this one is Tilly Devane (age 22), and she is the niece of the mafia . She got dragged into this one through an arranged marriage by the boss to create an alliance. She IS NOT happy about this one what so ever, and it is not going to work for her.
Greyson has to go and find Tilly just to bring her back home. So we know that this last story is the forbidden love story. And it is a sweet love story with such a feisty FMC. But, you have to read it to find out if Tilly and Greyson get their HEA just like you have to read the other two stories to find out if they get the HEA's.
One of the things that I like about these stories is that they are all older, more mature adults, so there are no shenanigans like you get with the younger young adults. I absolutely love all three of these stories, and I look forward to reading more for each of these authors in the future. I highly recommend this anthology. If you are looking for a quick short read with just the right amount of spice, then this is the one for you. I highly recommend it. You will not regret this quick, short read.
