About this listen
When love is the only play that matters…
Agents Bishop and Marshall know:
The clock is ticking.
They control the most dangerous pieces on the board.
Sacrifices will be required to win the game.
Levi and Marsh need to:
Get home to each other and their son.
Fall asleep in each other’s arms again.
Start living the happily-ever-after the rings on their fingers promise.
What began as a marriage of convenience is now the rock Marsh and Levi cling to as they enter the endgame.
But defeating two kings is no easy feat.
They’ll have to make all the right moves and lure their enemies to their side of the board where they have the advantage.
But winning may cost them everything—their careers, their lives, and the love that’s become the center of their world.
King Hunt is the final book of the Perfect Play trilogy and should be listened to after Dead Draw and Bad Bishop. This swoony, single dad, marriage of convenience romance matches two mature, competent men and delivers the happily-ever-after they both so deeply deserve.

No indiscriminate killing. No collateral damage. No unvetted targets. These are the rules Hawes Madigan lives by. Rules that make being Fog City's Prince of Killers bearable. Soon, he'll be king - of an organization of assassins - and the crown has never felt heavier. Until the mysterious Dante Perry swaggers into his life. Dante looks like a rock god and carries himself like one, too, all loose-limbed and casually confident. He also carries a concealed weapon, a private investigator's license, and a message for the prince.

Story
Chris Gardner has a good life in New Orleans. He owns a club in the French Quarter, has a wonderful crew of people who call it home, loyal, caring friends, and even gets his kid fix by helping to take care of his chef’s daughter. What he doesn’t have is that special someone to share his days and nights with. He thought he did, once upon a time, but that man left to find fame and fortune, became a rockstar, and never returned. And that’s fine. Life isn’t a fairy tale. Now if only he could find a band to play music in his club at night, that would be a Christmas miracle.

I'm the Grinch who saves Christmas… Yep, you read that right. Every year, I save Christmas—and Christmas Falls—by organizing a massive festival that sustains tourism in our little town. It turns out that when Christmas is your life 24/7, the shine wears off the twinkly lights after a while. The holidays are a heck of a lot of work, and when I go home, I want peace and quiet, not fa-la-la-ing on my porch. That all changes when my sister brings me an early Christmas gift. One I didn't ask for. One that's tall, broad, and handsome...

Either way, falling for snarky Alexei Ivanov is the lightbulb moment I've been waiting for my whole damn life. Or at least since my head got turned by someone else.

This book was action packed, addictive as hell and had me
It had been amazing to see how much growth Marsh and Levi made since book one and I think King Hunt was the perfect ending for them... The author had me second guessing myself til the very end. This is a fantastic book... it's action packed, gripping, thrilling and addictive as hell and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire way through!
This was an amazing read!
5 STARS!

Perhaps this last one wasn't my absolute favorite Reyne book, though I did enjoy it. I found it to be one of the most unrealistic contemporary mystery/action romance novels I've ever read that is not urban fantasy, clearly intentionally far-fetched, and/or some other alternate reality. Known criminals and civilians who are just friends with people in law enforcement/FBI are totally included in busts & various maneuvers in ways that just blow the mind, (and would blow any chance at a conviction holding up against these villains). I'd find myself shaking my head or just confused as to "How are these people just there helping to investigate & apprehend suspects?" But hey, FICTION, right?
So yes, this world Reyne created in the Irish & Whiskey series, continuing in Trouble Brewing, Fog City, What We May Be, and Perfect Play, is unrealistic. The conspiracy and criminal connections in this trilogy are sometimes convoluted, (probably less difficult to follow for people with a really good short-term memory, which I do not have). BUT I found the characters and their interactions interesting, often loveable, funny and/or sexy. I also enjoyed villains who were scary in a menacing psycho/sociopath way, and good guys/women who scared everyone with their "you mess with me and mine, I will very competently end you" manner. I was sucked in from start to finish and would read more in this world.
As far as the audio, I am continually glad that Christian Leatherman has been the narrator for the last handful of books Reyne's released on audio. Sure, it's very possible that some of his foreign accents were not 100% accurate, but this book has a huge cast with many different accents from all over the US & Europe. I give Leatherman kudos for managing as well as he did and still giving the emotion and pacing its due. I hope he continues to expand the library of audiobooks he narrates.
Maybe not my favorite of the series, but enjoyable

I really liked these characters and the overall plot, but there were a few loose ends that left me wanting more.
Christian Leatherman was the perfect narrator and I can’t wait to listen to more of his work!

King Hunt has everything the reader could want in the conclusion of the Perfect Play series.
There is intrigue, suspense, action, heat and so much love!
Marsh and Levi are putting all the pieces on the board to bring down the human traffickers.
This will take them away from home and back again as the final pieces are put into play.
Along with the intrigue we get to see these two become firmly cemented together. This new family that they have formed is indestructible. Along with found family and friends they achieve every dream they had.
I was kept on my toes with all the plot twists and turns and loved it.
The conclusion left me with a smile on my face and I found myself gushing over the love these two have.
OUTSTANDING!!!!

King Hunt picks up right where Bad Bishop leaves off - I enjoyed the strength in Marsh & Levi's relationship and the pace of the story meant there was never a quiet moment. I appreciate this book is about the 'story' and not bombarded with unnecessary "s*xy times", just to fill the pages.
• There's alot going on in this story, so it's not one that can be easily listened too while doing something else without loosing track of bits of the story. • This series ticks all my boxes. I'm finding as I'm getting older, I enjoy older characters and books that are more story and less s*x with some real life moment's and lives that aren't perfect. • I'm going to go back and listen to the 3 books again to get the "full journey".
🎧 Narrator comment: I enjoyed Christian Leatherman's performance. He suits the characters giving them each their own voice and personality, has good timing, inflections and intonations, his characters are consistent across the series and he brings all the life and emotion to the story for a completely immersive experience.

Where I am sorry that this series came to an end, I did feel that parts of the story were a bit drawn out or maybe I was just restless for this pair to get their HEA. I'll admit I just wanted them both to get their HEA so maybe I was just impatient while waiting for them to get there. I did love the return of characters from the previous series that Ms. Reyne has written and at the glimpse of possible stories in the future with the characters in this book.
The narration performed by Christian Leatherman was performed well and made for an enjoyable listening experience.
Overall, this was a great read that I enjoyed from start to finish with all the books in this series and I would recommend this series to others.
Great end to this series!
