Summary
The anticipated conclusion of the Checkmate Duet from a secret duo of best-selling authors! Checkmate: This Is Love is an enemies-to-lovers romance that will have you crying with laughter one moment and screaming in frustration the next...but you'll be begging to play the game with The King.
Game on.
***
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.
Recommend for ages 18+ due to sexual content and adult language.

Travis and Viola!
After trying to do the right thing Travis finds himself in a predicament when it comes to both Viola and his best friend Drew but despite what appeared to have transpired they both show their trust in him. As the relationship between Travis and Viola strengthens it becomes more complicated trying to keep it a secret from his brother especially since secrets have a way of being exposed at the worst time and in the worst possible way.
Travis is determined to win the heart of the woman he loves even if that means letting her go and hoping that she returns to where she belongs which is with him. Let the angst begin!
Travis has come so far from the playboy he used to be and Viola has matured both in her career and personally that you know they will be able to handle whatever curveballs life throws at them together. The narrator did a great job at bringing out the heat and emotion of the story.

fun and sexy conclusion
Good conclusion to Viola and Travis's story. Great sexual chemistry between them. The roles were reversed in this book as I like Travis a lot more than Viola. She created some drama where there shouldn't have been but I'm very happy with how it turns out.
Can't wait for the next duet as Drew & Courtney seem really interesting.
The narration was fabulous.

Loved this so much
This was just such a fantastic novel, the characters brought out so many emotions in me, little laughs, frustration and swoons they made me feel it all. There is enough chemistry here to start a bonfire and a strong storyline that will keep you reading until the last second. Loved this book and the series so far so much.

Will the King get his Queen???
This book picks up where we were left hanging... Travis and Viola's story continues to be filled with plenty of twists, turns, passion, sizzling hot chemistry, heartache and so much more! Will they finally get their happy ever after?...
Love the narrator and glad to see that they continue to use them throughout the series. Can't wait to see what happens next!!!

Plenty of steam and I swooned so bad!
Audiobook listen 🎧
The book picks up where book one left us with Travis in hospital and then dealing with his recovery, which allows him time with Viola, who is helping him and brings them closer together as a couple but sees them still hiding it from her brother who is also Travis’ best friend.
Who is this new Travis? This is the Travis is wanted to see in book one and I have ultimately forgiven him for his bad-boy ways due to his unconditional love for Viola.
I loved their coming together and their commitment to each other and liked how they could trust each other even after everything that had happened previously. Until that moment that threw doubt into Viola’s mind and I want to shake her so bad with some of the choices she made.
This book is filled with so many swoon moments and talk about HOT, pass me the fan! Their chemistry for each other never lessened and when they did finally get together they made my heart warm with their love and dedication for each other.
We get more of Courtney and Drew in this book, setting them up for what I sure will be another great read for this series.
This was a well-read audiobook and I loved both the male and female voices from the narrator.

My Thoughts on Checkmate: This is Love
Now that I finished this story I feel bad for even doubting Kennedy Fox. Travis didn't make a full 180 or anything, it's more that he grew on me. And he more than showed his dedication and devotion to Viola and that's all I really wanted. There were so many surprises and unexpected moments. But they were laid out perfectly to keep the story flowing and keep me invested.
I also really loved Courtney and Drew. They were too funny, especially Courtney and her responses to him. I kind of wanted to shake him sometimes because of Mia, but it also has me super excited for future books.
Lia Langola was perfection once again. She's one of my favorite narrators for a reason. She has great female and male tones. And overall she just has a great voice for romance novels.
I can't wait to devour more books by this author duo as well as this narrator.

Travis and Viola's HEA
I wondered just how Kennedy Fox was going to solve the problem that arose at the end of the first novel of this duet but I needn't have worried.
Once again this writing duo (ably supported by narrator Lia Longoria) bring a story of which you can't wait to get to the end, whilst conversely, not wanting it to end at all!
I love that we get not only a HEA but beyond that and 'evidence' which reaches far into the future.

Travis & Viola - Book 2
#Traviola I’m a fan!!
After the cliffhanger from the first book I was desperate to find out what/why. All the scenarios I conjured up in my mind did not prepare me for the reality and I must say Kennedy Fox’s plot twists are genius!!
Let’s not even talk about the steamy scenes… I made the mistake of listening in at work and nope… had to turn it off and wait until I was on my own.. seriously too hot to listen at work.
Lia Langola is great. She does such a great job narrating both Travis and Viola changing her voice to suit the character and their personalities. I’m a huge fan.

Lord, can someone turn on the AC?!?!
Kennedy Fox seriously turned the saunas heat up. This is Love, the conclusion to Travis and Viola's story. I was obsessed with it! I lived the push/pull of the love/hate they had going on in the first book. However, this second installment was different, or it felt different. After the first book, they had reached a truce and were starting to see each other as something more. Travis was a fabulous character when he was a jerk, he was that guy we all loved to hate. But sweet Travis? Falling in love Travis is irresistible!
Lia Langola continued to excel in the narration. I do wish we would have had a male co-narrator but I think that's just my preference. Langola didn't do a thing wrong and she did good trying to cover both characters. I just prefer duet or dual narration when the book has a male and female side.
