Cash

4 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

ARC received from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
Opinions expressed are my own !!

First book by this author Cassia Leo & really liked this easy - read in one sitting book !

Cash is a billionaire playboy - currently in trouble with the board of his father’s company for one to many scandalous headlines . He meets Kara- a new black jack dealer at his favorite casino - other than dealing cards she wants nothing to do with him. Super smart & snarky Kara pretty much has Cash’s pegged as the type that is trouble with a capital “T”

A crazy hot one night stand leads Cash & Kara on what could be the biggest gamble of their lives !!!

Few things I ❤️❤️ about this book:
Vegas setting
Great characters
Very strong heroine who kicks butt when needed ...
Interesting storyline & plot
Awesome HEA & epilogue

I definitely will be checking out other books by this author - great read !!

CASH is the fourth instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYERS erotic, romances series. This is billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley’s story line. CASH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kara and Cash) CASH follows the fake engagement and building relationship between billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley. Kara Langley is desperate for money to pay her father’s medical bills when the opportunity of a lifetime finds our heroine the new Black Jack dealer at a private billionaire’s club, a club where she will meet the man with whom she will fall in love. Enter billionaire playboy and manwh*re Cash Westbrook, a man with more than his share of media disasters. When Westbrook Oil deems Cash a threat to the stability of the board, in desperation Cash sets about to clean up his image starting with a ‘fake’ fiancé in the form of Kara Langley. What ensues is the building relationship and love between Kara and Cash, and the potential fall-out as Kara’s father’s past seeks redemption for sins of the past using Kara and the people she loves in their need for retribution and repayment.

Cash is desperate to make good on the promise to clean up his image in an effort to reclaim his seat on the board but desperation meant finding the first available woman willing to play along as his fake fiancé, a move that threatens his family and his life. Kara Langley struggles to pay the mounting bills for her father’s medical treatments but sins from the past threaten any semblance of peace when Kara is targeted, and her life becomes a bargaining chip in a dangerous game on the Las Vegas strip. When Cash offers Kara one-million dollars to play his fake fiancé, Kara hopes to stay one step ahead of those trying to destroy her life.

The relationship between Kara and Cash is one of immediate attraction but Cash doesn’t do relationship, and the latest media frenzy refuses to die down as Cash’s personal life is paparazzi fodder. Kara is desperate enough to take Cash up on his offer but outlines three rules that must be obeyed in an effort to remain in control of the situation. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense

We are introduced to Cash’s parent Anne and Jacob Westbrook, as well as Kara’s father Kurt Langley, and his aide Jacie, as well as Kara’s friend Suzy. We are reintroduced to Knox Savage of Savage Security, as well as security guards Dex and Hector. The requisite evil has many faces.

CASH is a story of family, desperation, addiction and love. The premise is engaging, entertaining and enticing; the characters are colorful, energetic and charismatic; the romance is passionate and seductive. CASH is a fast paced, sizzling and animated story line.

Cassia Leo writes a new steamy billionaire alpha in this series starter, Cash. Kara is the product of her upbringing and is struggling to find a job her father’s bad reputation. He’s known as a card counter and cheat in Las Vegas and it’s hurting her pockets. They need money to pay off debts and it’s dire now. She finally stands up for herself and lands the perfect job at a Billionaires Club Casino. Cash like Kara is a product of his upbringing only he’s a poor little rich boy. He suffers from Peter Pan syndrome. Board of his family company wants him gone if he doesn’t change. Cash comes up with anscheme and needs help. This is a steamy hot book like Cassia Leo is good at writing. Full of hot sexy scenes and drama that keeps you flipping the pages and staying up til 2am. I loved it and can’t wait til the next one called Knox comes out.

Kara's father has racked up quite a large gambling debt and it's fallen on her to not only pay that debt but also his medical bills that his cancer has racked up. Thank God she got a job at the Billionaire Club as a card dealer. When one of the card sharks proposes a very lucrative deal to her - be his fake fiancée for $1M if they can convince his board that he's not only engaged but really plans on settling down, what else can Kara say but yes?

But of course things can't possibly be that easy because of course not. For one, Cash has serious issues, and two, Kara doesn't trust easily. Can she trust Cash to make good on his deal with her? She's not sure. And she's not sure if she wants to stick around a guy who accused her of the things he just accused her of.

I liked Cash. I didn't love it, mainly because I had a hard time believing that Cash and Kara really had the strong feelings for each other they claimed after only knowing each other for such a short time. But their chemistry was definitely hot. There's a good bit of action toward the end, that picked the story up enough that I can fairly rate this 4 stars. Can't wait for the next story, King.

Definitely enjoyed reading this book! I'm going to read the others in the series next! This is cash and Kara book, you definitely don't have to read the others in the series! Cash is a mega rich playboy and Kara is a blackjack dealer at a high end casino, Kara is trying to make money to pay off her ailing father debt and cash makes her an offer she can't refuse! It definitely has everything in this story! It had humor, angst, suspense, action, light drama, and definitely 🔥🔥🔥 lol I highly recommend reading this book! Thank you Netgalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

Cash was such a great standalone romance read. I devoured this book from beginning to end. I loved the characters, the storyline and the flow of the story. This was the perfect read for me. I absolutely loved Cash and Kara together. This story is one that is insta-love/lust with steamy scenes, action and a bit of suspense. The epilogue was perfect and left me with a happy feeling!!!! I will definitely be recommending this romance book to my family and friends.

Cash is awesome, he only doubted Kara for a fraction of a moment. When he came to his senses he did everything he could think of to win Kara back. He is what I think of when I think of a playboy billionaire. I was so glad to find out that isn't him at all, only one side of him that can easily be changed.

Cash knows when he's losing a hand and one last stunt pushes his father and their company on the verge of kicking him out-to save face, but he's finally got the girl he wants to settle down with or that's what he sells his father to save him some time before he's cut off, but he doesn't know what to expect when he meets Kara. She's a breath of fresh air. He's smitten and suddenly he realizes that when it comes to her and how he feels with her, all bets are off. I got this book off Netgalley to read and give a review, and honestly speaking can I get a Hector and a Dex in my life? Even for a day? It's a short, light, romance.

Now this book was exciting and I have to say I didn't know it was part of a series however I was not lost and since I enjoyed this one I plan on getting the previous books when am I going to read them I do not know since I have so many books to catch up to. So we meet Kara who is struggling to pay off her fathers gambling debt and his medical bills, poor thing inherited quite the problem. She meets Cash a hottie billionaire playboy who all want a piece of, but Cash has some secrets will they be their downfall? When these two get together it is combustible and truly entertaining, so grab a copy and enjoy!

If you have read one fake relationship trope novel, you’ve read them all. “Cash” features Kara Langley who is in need fast cash to pay her ailing father’s gambling debts which accumulated over $140,000. Her big break comes when she goes to an interview and begs for a position as a Blackjack dealer at the world renown Billionaire Club despite it being known that her father was ban from every casino on the strip for reading cards. Cash Westbrook, multi-billionaire and the same man who is responsible for the termination of Kara’s father job takes notice of her spit fire attitude. After a one-night-stand with Cash turns into a million-dollar bet, the bad boy billionaire asks Kara to be his fake fiance when his future business plans are at risk of collapsing. Agreeing to the arrangement to pay off the debt that is owe, Kara finds her life in danger when someone from her father’s past comes to collect. Coming to her aid when no has ever, Kara’s one step closer to being able to share her heart to Cash but would it be enough to heal their damaged hearts?

Kara and Cash were really good developed characters with decent backstories that help define who they are. Despite that, there wasn’t anything in particular that stood out from the series. There was definitely some some inconsistencies with the story and the romance seem like a little middle schoolish (instant romance, come on!), which I’m not a fan of unless the novel falls in the erotica genre. Speaking of erotica, the smexy scenes were probably the best about this series, considering that, the author should've just made this into an erotica instead of a romance novel. There was barely any real romance in it anyway. Overall, it was a good read but nothing to brag about. I've rated the series a good 3.5 stars, I opted to give it a 3 star Goodreads rating instead of rounding it off to 4 stars since there were more than a few things that bother me about the series content.

Cash is a guy that really values honesty but when his future plans are at risk of being crumbled he has to think on his feet and find someone willing to be his fake fiance. Turns out, it's not a hardship for him to find her. Kara intrigues him and awakens in him instincts and desires he didn't think himself capable of. Feelings he has been running from for a very long time. She has her own troubles too so it's no hardship to accept his crazy proposal. Plus really, it's really hard to refuse a sexy sensual alpha billionaire. It is great that this book has a bit of everything. It even comes with some action pack moments. And we can't forget about the sexy steamy ones. This story will show you that these characters have a lot of depth to them. More than what people around them have uncovered. But we as readers get to peal that onion.

Cash was such an a fitting name for this book. This was a duo POV with Cash and Kara. This book flowed nicely and was such great chemistry! I loved how Cash went out his way to take care of Kara and even through disagreements was able to listen and fix things. Kara was open to new love even though she attempted to tell herself it was strictly business
I highly recommend!

Loved this book. Love this authir. This book drew me right in from the start. Cash is a sexy alpha billionaire who isn't afraid to go after what he wants. He is always in the tabloids, with some story or another. This story has the mob intertwined with it, made it more interesting. I am going to go back and read the other books about the starting of the security team that helped and can't wait to read the new release King when it comes out.
