When Bodie King, a con man known for (alleged) art thefts, steps into my antique store, I know I’m in trouble.

Not only is he charming, devastatingly handsome, and used to getting what he wants, but he’s looking for a priceless chess set.

The same one I’m searching for.

The race is on and I have to use everything I know about the chess set to get it before him.

Too bad he doesn’t play fair. (Or doesn’t scare easily at broadswords and fuzzy slippers.)

But when things take a dark turn and someone sets the antique store on fire, Bodie becomes an unlikely ally.

Now I just have to remember all the reasons I shouldn’t fall for the competition:

  1. He’ll steal the chess set out from under me if he can.
    2) He’s a great kisser.
    Oops, no. I mean, 2) He has deadly enemies.
  2. He's too distracting.

What happens when the lines are blurred, and he steals my heart?

Note: Rook to King is a romantic comedy adventure featuring morally gray characters.

This was such a fun and cute story. I listened to the audiobook for this one. It was narrated by Kim Churchill and Wayne Mitchell. Both narrators did a fantastic job. I loved listening to each perspective and felt like I was right in the story with them.

Now to the actual story. This is the second book in the Love and Treasure series. The first book, World's Worst Boyfriend, was also really good (recommend checking that one out too!!). I'm looking forward to reading books 3 and 4 soon hopefully. These can be read in order or as standalones. Both World's Worst Boyfriend and this one have a good amount of adventure, banter, and humor.

I found myself really enjoying this book. Carina tells a fun and adventurous story. I laughed so much and couldn't seem to get enough of Bodie and Gracen.

Book 3, Love and Treasure, has since found its way to the top of my TBR. I 100% recommend adding this series to your lists and shelves.
