The stunning conclusion to the All In Duet...

In Vegas, there was one man who was off limits. One man... and I fell for him.
I knew there were risks. Still, I played the game. When Dario Capece called, I answered. When he beckoned, I came. When he broke all my rules, I looked the other way.
I knew there were risks. I just never realized they included death.

Note: This book should be read after Even Money (available now).

Whoa!!!! What an utterly unique, shockingly suspenseful sequel this was! I was completely RIVETED by the dark and twisty course of events that transpired in Double Down. All In consumed me with its romanticism, Double Down gripped me with its unpredictability, with its edge of your seat suspense, and it all culminates into an unputdownable package, a MUST READ duet, and I enjoyed every moment.

Jessica’s Review

4 “Yes. This” Stars!

Whoa!!!! What an utterly unique, shockingly suspenseful sequel this was! I was completely RIVETED by the dark and twisty course of events that transpired in Double Down. All In consumed me with its romanticism, Double Down gripped me with its unpredictability, with its edge of your seat suspense, and it all culminates into an unputdownable package, a MUST READ duet, and I enjoyed every moment.

Double Down has a decidedly different vibe than All In. All In, for me, was very much the build, the chase, the initial taste of attraction between Dario and Bell, the infancy of their romance. But Double Down is the fall, the downward spiral into mayhem and chaos after the jaw dropping cliffhanger at the end of book one. That MINDBLOWING moment was the catalyst in the seismic shift in Dario and Bell’s relationship. It changes the trajectory of their newfound romance and catapults it into uncertainty, into danger, into a search for answers and the unearthing of dispicable truths before it even gets off the ground… And what unfolds in this second book becomes something unpredictable, something terrifying, something wickedly dark and unbelievably twisted.

This story is so different. You can tell that Alessandra Torre just loves to write romantic suspense by the care and detail that went into this duet. There are so many perspectives offered up in this sequel, so much information and so many wicked personalities. But still, the lush romance between our casino mogul and the college student he’s fallen for shines through even the darkest moments. Double Down is the perfect marriage of sensual romance and thrilling suspense. It’s shocking and gruesome at times, sexy and sweet at others. But it’s always unpredictable, always riveting and it’s completely refreshing and different from anything else I’ve read. I thoroughly enjoyed this duet and I strongly recommend it for its juicy change of pace, for its unpredictable roller coaster ride of intense emotion and for its fiercely addictive romance.

  • It’s the weekenddddddddd! Holy shit! Anyone else have the longest week everrrrrrrrr? 🤣🤣 talk about a crazy. October’s been a rough month, but it’s almost November and I’m hoping it starts to slow down and cool down just a tiny bit. I’m in FL, where it feels like one never ending summer 😅 That said, I can’t wait to have a day to just sit and read! This book is one I’m desperate to dive into! The awesome Louise Bay and Candi Kane PR sent it over and I friggin adore that cover and blurb!
  • OMGGGGGG! Look at this goodness that Becca sent me?! That copy of Filthy English from Ilsa Madden Mills is EVERYTHING! I’m so in love with it. And the tote, free ebook downloads, chapstick (it’s the best one I’ve used), and alllll the other things are THE. AMAZING!!!!!! I adore the @hellolovelybox soooooooo much! It’s the best book box there is. Everything you get is so well thought out, so pretty and perfect. I just love it. Do you get any book boxes? Have you tried any?
  • Anyone else think this is the best cover of 2019?! Because I’m so obsessed! Everything about it screams “READ ME NOW!” Plus, it’s a Devney Perry book and I’m so in love with her stories! So full of heart and passion and sweetness! Perfect romances! Have you read her?
  • How freaking stunning is this book mail that Catherine Cowles sent me? I’m in LOVE! That book sleeve is gorgeous and the cover of her upcoming romance, Beautifully Broken Spirit, is stunning! I can’t wait to read! Especially because she’s a new to me author! Have you read her before? If so, what books?
  • Ohhhhhhh heyyyyy, bookstagram! *** waves *** Holy shit! Long time no post 😳 LOL! I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I’ve put a pic up on my feed. I suck. There’s no other words for it, but this last year has been ... busy and a little tough, to be honest. That said, I’m hoping to get back in the swing of things and post more often. But enough about me. HOW ARE YOU? Are you doing good? Tell me allllll the things! ❤️*** ****Also, on the book front, I figured why not come back with this epic book mail! I mean, Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are the DREAM team when it comes to author duos! And I’m so so so excited to dive into their next release, DIRTY LETTERS! This book is out 11/5. And it’ll be in kindle unlimited!! Have you read these authors?
  • QOTD: Do you read magazines?! I know we’re all book junkies 😂 but I was curious if you like magazines..Also, I received a #voxbox from @influenster  for free and inside were some amazing @honest_beauty products. I admit that I’d never even heard of this beauty brand before I got the box! But I’ll tell you, the packaging is so pretty—clean and fresh and on top of that, the actual #beauty products are great. The primer goes on smooth and does a good job of keeping your #makeup in place, and I absolutely LOVE the #mascara! It lengthens and stays well. The lip crayon was pretty pigmented and bright—loved it. Overall, I’m definitely planning on getting some more of this Honest Beauty line! It’s GREAT!!!!! .#ThatsHonest #CleanBeautyThatWorks #contest #complimentary @honest_beauty @Influenster
