Castling the Rook

Checkmate, Book 3

By: Emilia Finn

Narrated by: Dane Anderson, Audrey Obeyn

Rookie. Baby-face. Junior. Riley Cruz has heard it all. At thirty-one, he’s the youngest recruit on the force, but his quiet nature and boyish looks make him easy to dismiss.

What no one realizes is that Riley isn’t as innocent as he seems. Recruited by powerful players in law enforcement, he’s pulled into a covert team of agents who blur the line between justice and corruption. Now Riley is straddling two worlds—cop and agent, right and wrong—and he may be hiding the darkest secrets of them all.

The one light in his chaos is Andi Conner, a raven-haired beauty he’s wanted from the start. But Andi doesn’t do commitment. She bolts at the first sign of strings, and Riley’s world is nothing but knots.

Balancing the badge, the shadows, and the woman who could break him, Riley is playing a dangerous game. And when it all comes crashing down, he may lose not only his career and his heart—he may lose himself.

Amazing narrators for Riley & Andi!

Dane Anderson and Audrey Obeyn did a phenomenal job bringing Riley Cruz and Andi Conner to life in this 3rd book of the Checkmate series by Emilia Finn! They nailed the chemistry, emotion, banter, and the riveting suspense!! I had kind of put that cliffhanger ending out of my mind, so now I’m debating on rereading the next book or waiting for the new audio to release next month!😅
