Features & Highlights

  • In the second novel in acclaimed author Sandra Owens’s Aces & Eights series, passions―and tempers―flare as one star-crossed couple gets a second chance at love.
  • Covert FBI agent Court Gentry loves his brothers, his job, and his Harley-Davidson. Once he loved a girl, too, but when she broke his heart, he put his emotions on lockdown―until she crosses his path again.
  • On vacation six years ago, free-spirited Lauren Montgomery fell hard for Court Gentry. She returned home happier than ever, only to descend into a spiral of abuse by her ex-husband, Stephan. When Stephan threatened to kill any man who touched her, Lauren cut Court from her life―but not from her heart.
  • When Lauren and Court reunite after her friend marries his brother, Court guards himself against the person who made him feel such intense passion and pain. Except the undeniable spark between them is impossible to contain and heating up fast. Six years ago, it was love. Now, it’s just lust. Keeping it merely physical is a foolproof plan…right?
  • When Stephan is released from prison, Lauren can’t outrun her past anymore, and Court vows to protect her. But with Lauren in imminent danger, Court must question his heart and risk his life to save the woman he never stopped loving.

FBI brothers undercover

Loved the three books in this series - FBI undercover - without spoiling - hints of a possible fourth (I hope) with a new character making a discovery and the three brothers also searching - light romance, but these guys are definitely what you wished lived next door.

This was painful. I’ve never before listened (or read) a book ...

This was painful. I’ve never before listened (or read) a book when I kind of wanted everyone to die. The characters are one-dimensional, the writing is trite. The inner dialogues were straight up painful. I’m not a quitter but I wanted to just delete this from about Chapter 2 onward. Seriously, my IQ dropped.

*Disclaimer: I listen to books while working/running errands and it’s free on Kindke Unlimited*

Such a great book. This book is based on Court

King of Clubs the second book in this series. Such a great book. This book is based on Court, the second brother. Court and his two brothers, Nate and Alex own a bar Aces and Eights, which is their cover as all three are FBI agents. While working undercover, Court runs into his lost love Lauren. They met six years ago and fell in love. But because of Lauren's ex Stephen, she calls it off with Court. Now he is back in her life and he will doing anything to save her from Stephen.

I loved the way that Sandra Owens is writing this series. Sandra shows the love between brothers. You really don't have to read the first book as some of the background on Alex and Madison, do come though in this book. I really enjoyed this book can't wait for the next one to come out. Also can't wait to find out what happened to their mother who left them when they were young

Loved!

King of Clubs by Sandra Owens is the second book in the Aces & Eights series and gives two people a shot at a second chance.

Court and Lauren were in love, but circumstances caught up with Lauren and she decided to break up with Court, in order to keep in safe. Now she’s back and he’s not letting her go. Will Court convince Lauren to let him keep her safe, or will she run again?

The story is fast-paced, well-written, and attention grabbing. I adored the first book in this series, but this one is even better. Definitely recommended.
