Viola Fisher is the epitome of perfection.
She despises my one-night stands and mocks my less-than-classy habits.
She’s smart, beautiful, and too good to be true.
And I want her.
If she were anyone else, I’d have made my move years ago, but considering she’s my best friend’s little sister, she’s always been off-limits. Not to mention how much she loathes my very existence.
Hating me is her religion, but needing her is mine. Her sexy curves and filthy smart mouth make me want her even more, and I’m more determined than ever to change her mind.
I’ll prove I’m done playing games.
But until then, we’ll continue to play by her rules.
Viola Fisher may have won the battle, but the war isn’t over yet.
Checkmate, princess.
Recommended for ages 18+ due to adult language and content.

Review
Checkmate: This is Love was an amazing sequel and conclusion to the Checkmate Duet, and it completely exceeded my expectations! The storyline and characters were even more interesting and entertaining in this book, and they completely captured my heart. Kennedy Fox’s writing style was excellent as well, and I thought it was much more polished in this novel than it was in the first one.
Travis and Viola were truly amazing, especially as a couple, and both of them were definitely after my own heart. Travis was sweet, sexy, and understanding, and I loved how well he treated Viola throughout the entire book. He wasn’t perfect by any means, but he was perfect for Viola and it made me so happy to see them together. I loved Viola as well and couldn’t help but relate to her in a lot of ways. She was a book nerd with an extreme love of Harry Potter, and that endeared her to me even more. Travis and Viola were a perfect match in my opinion, and I honestly loved reading every single page of their story. It sucked me right in and had me captivated from beginning to end. There were a few parts of the book that I didn’t like and found a little annoying, but luckily it didn’t diminish my love of the story or characters. There were plenty of amazing and pleasant surprises in this book that made me so freaking happy, you wouldn’t believe, and I couldn’t have been more ecstatic with the outcome to Travis and Viola’s story. Kennedy Fox truly hit it out of the park with this duet, and I am so excited to read Drew and Courtney’s story in the books to come!
Rating:
FIVE “Team Traviola” STARS!
