Cash was the first book that I read by Cassia Leo and sadly I am not a fan. It was an okay read but there wasn’t anything that fantastic about it.

I voluntarily reviewed this book.

this one was just okay for me. The characters were good but the story line just didn't keep me engaged at all. This one felt like I need more, more from the the characters and more from the story

I couldn't put this book down!

Sparks fly between the playboy billionaire and his fake fiancee. I instantly got hooked in Cash and Kara's relationship. I loved reading about them falling for each other as they try to deny their true feelings and overcoming the little obstacles standing in their way. Their connection is undeniable and I love how easily things flow between them.

Cash is passionate and swoon worthy and Karla? She's smart and sassy. These two challenge each other in the best way and they can't help but be drawn to each other.

This one has it all! Excellent characters, drama and great chemistry.

As always, I appreciate the opportunity to read and review this title.

However, I was not able to finish this as I was not able to connect with the story and the way the characters were written.

I have chosen to mark this title as a "DNF" and I apologize for the delay in sending this response to this title.

Thank you!

Cash is a total playboy, a new girl on his night every night and parties like crazy, also kind of obnoxious.
But when he meets Kara who is smart, sassy and does not take any crap.
Like most billionaire books Cash is in need of a fake fiancé to prove to his board of directors that he put his player ways behind him.
Well Kara is trying to clear her and her fathers name. And when with sparks fly, they both see an opportunity to get what they both want.
It had a natural vibe from friendship to relationship.
This book has a nice easy flow.

Cash by Cassia Leo was great! It was really fun to be taken back into her world where I've read most of her books and can see how everything fits together. Cash is an interesting character who at the beginning I didn't like. At. All. But by the end, I totally got him and was head over heels in love with him. I know, I said it. I'm in love with a fictional character.

I loved that he knows what he is doing is wrong and takes it a special woman like Kara to show him the best side of him. All in all these men are all great in this hot little package and cannot wait to see what Cassia has in store for us. Loved it.

Her father’s reputation was tarnished Kara’s reputation. It was so hard to get a job dealing blackjack when her father had been blacklisted because he was a card shark. But she finally gets a job dealing at the Billionaire’s Club. Cash meets Kara at the club. They click but Kara doesn’t want any kind of relationship and has her walls up.

So they have to get to know each other to pull this off. While getting to know each other Cash and Kara start to develop feelings for each other. Cash loves that Kara challenges him.
I really liked this book. It was a fast enjoyable read. It was predictable but that was basically ok with me. Cash and Kara had a hot chemistry. I loved the ending. I loved how dax wanted to take care of Kara. I felt like cash and kara broke up and went back together to often. Either fix what's wrong or stop the relationship. It just got annoying. I did love the duo POVs. I was drawn in right away with this book and stayed that way until the end. I didn’t really like the instalove. But I did love Kara was determined to pay all her father’s gambling debt as well as his medical bills. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I recommend it. I wish I could rate this 4.5.

This was okay for me. Not really sure that I like a heroine that's willing to sleep with someone to get insurance claims paid. I understand desperate times and all that, but it's not my cup of tea. They went really quick from a mutual using each other thing to love. There didn't seem to be a whole lot of build up to it. The writing itself flowed well, I just wasn't a huge fan of the story. This was a first for me from this author, but I would be willing to read her again.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.

It was fun read from beginning to end.
Billionaire playboy Cash and black jack dealer Kara.
Cash is a playboy billionaire who had everything except his reputation is not helping his his company. His latest party antics is spread all over the tabloid and board members from his company is ready to oust him if he doesn't clean up his act. Cash is running out of excuses and he couldn't be ousted by the board, he tells his father he found a fiancee and they will show up at their company's gala.
Kara is a blackjack dealer and trying to work at exclusive billionaire club where she would earn more money so that she could pay off his father's debt and his piling medical debt. His bookie has been threatening her and she needed to make bucks quick.
When Cash was in exclusive club, he meets and Kara and entices her with plan. Kara wanted to refuse but after latest incident with Benny the bookie, she couldn't refuse.
Now they need to know each other so when she shows up for the Gala, board members will believe Cash finally changed his ways and settle down. To learn each other they have to open to each other but Kara can't really tell Cash about EVERYTHING. She wants to hide and keep bookie away from him but everything changes when they show up at the GALA...
It kept me up and I had to get to the end. Cash and Kara were likable and storyline moved quickly.

thanks to Netgalley and KOBO writing life for ARC in exchange for honest review.

This my first Cassia Leo novel. I see that it is part of a series, but written as a stand alone. It was a fun, quick, very sexy read. The characters were engaging, I appreciated that there was definite character growth through the story. The heat factor is very high. Cash is written in the first person, alternating between hero and heroine, which added to the fast pace of the story. I would read more from Cassia Leo.
I received my copy through NetGalley under no obligatio

I was intrigued by the blurb of this read and it definitely kept my attention from beginning to end.

I appreciated the struggle that Kara was facing and her willingness to basically do anything to fix her father’s problems. She was a go getter and it made her character very likable.

Cash, the bad boy billionaire was hot and rude and unapologetic! But you could tell that deep down, he was capable of compassion and empathy.

I loved the connection between these two and their mutual understanding that they were both using each other. What I didn’t care for was how quickly they were suddenly in love and no longer pretending. It just seemed so unrealistic.

The drama was nail biting and the sexual chemistry was so hot! I really enjoyed this author’s writing style and will absolutely check out the other books in this series.

This is a standard alone read in the series.

What's not to love about a bad not billionaire trying to clean up his act? Cash Westbrook is trying to avoid being ousted from the board and his job at the family oil company. What he needs is a distraction and the appearance that he's cleaned up his act.
Insert Kara, she's desperately trying to keep get head above water. Getting a job with great tips will go a long way to getting her family out of debt. What could possibly go wrong if she accepts the bet of a lifetime to be a pretend fiance?

I have received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Cash was an okay romance story. I feel like I've read similar books to this that the two MC's and their love didn't really stick out to me. In it, you will meet Cash and Kara. Their little romance definitely starts off with a little bet.. but of course, things start to get serious. Especially when sex is involved - like it usually is.

Besides their growing romance, this book did have some drama. Some of it was pretty interesting and the other was predictable. However, with all this drama you see it either push or pull these two together. Of course, they are stronger together and it doesn't take long for them to figure this all out.

Overall, I enjoyed this book even if it seemed like I've read it before. It was probably because of the romance - if I am being completely honest.

So so good. Cash is super swoony and fun. It is part Power Play series but can be read as a stand alone! So don’t put this one off.

Great book, likeable characters, chemistry and steamy scenes. There is some great development of the story line and the main characters. Cash needs clean up his act and improve his reputation and image. Kara needs some cash to help pay off her father’s gambling debt. She accepts a deal to act as his fiancé for a million, but soon emotions come into play and the need to make the relationship real.

This book held my attention and I highly recommend it. I received a free ARC copy for my honest opinion and voluntary review

This story was unexpected in a good way. You may think this is your typical story, but it has unexpected twists. This was a pretty quick read because you keep turning pages to see what happens next.

Definitely recommended.
