My Rating: 5 of 5 STARS

 

 

WOW! I was completely blown away by Cora Kenborn’s Faded Grey Lines. This book was absolutely PHENOMENAL and should not be missed for any reason!!! If you follow my blog, you know I am a huge fan of Kenborn’s work and I have been greatly anticipating the second book in the Carrera Cartel series. Without a doubt this book is five-star worthy… hell, realistically its deserving of more than five stars! I won’t bore you with my version of a synopsis of the book as there are going to be plenty of reviews that list those already. But please continue reading for why I LOVED this book so much.

 

 

Cora Kenborn writes extremely entertaining romance that will live you completely captivated. I have read everything in her backstock and as much as I loved her words before, yet in my humble opinion Faded Grey Lines is absolutely her very best work to date. I was just consumed with this book and stayed up all night to finish because putting it down for sleep just was not an option! As the second book in a series, I was sure I couldn’t love it more than Blurred Red Lines…only I did! Also, I often refuse to read books out of order just as there are some readers who prefer to start at the beginning as well. However, if Faded Grey Lines happens to be the book that speaks to you the most when looking to read Cora Kenborn’s work, then it’s important for you to know that this book is a standalone. I found the story to be fast paced and the plot was unpredictable. The writing was excellent, and the exceptional layering of humor, angst, suspense and sizzle truly made this book one of a kind in the mafia romance genre.

 

 

Faded Grey Lines is full of sizzle! The chemistry between Mateo and Leighton is undeniable. I’m a sucker for second chance romance and that’s exactly what Mateo and Leighton are given in Faded Grey Lines. Their love story is not perfect, but their love for one another was intense – especially given their ages. Now, after years of separation, the consuming love they once shared has new life breathed into it. Mateo is an alpha after my heart for sure. He’s a little bit of an asshole, a whole lot sexy, loyal and dominate with his woman… you know basically that super sexy book boyfriend we all love!! It’s important to know that while Mateo is the underboss to Val, he is still very alpha and totally worth your time. Hell, I’m willing to bet after reading the sexy times in Faded Grey Lines, you’ll need fresh panties and fresh batteries 😉!! Then, there is Leighton… our heroine is this beautiful composition of intelligent, timid, strong-willed and snarky. She is determined to fix the mess she made and yet keeps digging the ditch she’s in deeper and deeper! As vulnerable as Leighton is, she is only that way with Mateo and her brother, Brody. She comes across as very realistic to me.

 

 

I truly can not express how much I loved this story. As far as a series goes, the Carrera Cartel is one of my very favorites mafia romances. You will be hooked on Cora Kenborn’s writing immediately and I promise you won’t be able to put these books down! Whether you are a longtime lover of Cora’s brand of romance, or brand new to her work, there is something to love for everyone. Get started with the Carrera Cartel books – Blurred Red Lines and Faded Grey Lines – now so that when the third book is released, you aren’t still behind!
