Double Dealings by Stephanie Harte and this is the 2nd book in the The Kennedy Twins series and it was another excellent book from start to finish, especially if you love a gritty gangland thriller which involves kidnapping, violence, guns and drugs, This is a series for you, but you can read it as a stand alone but I do recommend you go back and read the first book, this will not disappoint.
Another 5 star read. I loved it and love the 2 main characters Lily and Daisy who are twins they are great,
Big Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for my ARC.
Double Dealings by Stephanie Harte.
Book 2 of 3: The Kennedy Twins.
I did enjoy this book. I liked the cover and blurb of this book. The chapters were short which is what I like. Each chapter was between Daisy, MacKenzie, Samson, and Lily. This was a gripping read. I loved Bernice. She was like a mother. I was surprised with what happened. I didn't expect that. I read this in one sitting. I couldn't put it down. I really can't wait for the next book. I want to know what happens. I would recommend this book.

A sister out for revenge...
With her twin sister still missing, Daisy Kennedy is determined to do all she can to bring her sister home. She’s sure she knows who’s to blame – her old boos and renowned nightclub owner, Samson Fox - but she’s going to need help if she’s going to make Samson pay.
And so Daisy joins forces with Samson’s biggest rival – Roscoe Allen – a man who has seen and done things that makes Daisy shiver. But if she wants Lily back safe, she’s going to have to make a deal…even if it is with the devil himself.
All Roscoe wants is revenge. But as they get closer to finding Lily, Samson has one more card up his sleeve, which could spell disaster for everyone.

Book 2 starts off where book 1 finished, Lily has been kidnapped and her twin sister Daisy will do everything she can to find her. The book is a page turner with so much going on I couldn’t put it down. Roll on book 3
I love this series.
Lily and Daisy are twins, lily has been abducted and taken somewhere, and her twin Daisy has been forced to throw her boss mckenzie to the wolves to save her own skin...... Does it all go to plan??????? Nooooooo.. The twins's dad Dez is brutally attacked in his home and left for dead as he owes violent people a lot of money . Can Daisy find lily, or is it already too late????? This had me gripped. Highley recommend
I thoroughly enjoyed this gripping gangland thriller; it exceeded my expectations in every way. Although it is the second instalment in the series, it is expertly crafted to stand independently. That said, having read the first book, I was eagerly anticipating a deeper exploration of the characters and their increasingly complex relationships, and author Harte did not disappoint!
The story unfolds in a gritty underworld, immersing readers in a compelling narrative that draws you in from the very first pages. The characters are well-developed and vivid, each carrying their own burdens and motivations that add layers to the plot. The writing is sharp and evocative, painting a realistic picture of the dangers and intrigues of gang life.
The plot is fast-paced and filled with unexpected twists that kept my heart racing. Just when I thought I had figured things out, Hart skillfully flipped the narrative, leading to jaw-dropping moments that heightened the stakes and kept me on the edge of my seat. This was an adrenaline-fueled ride from start to finish, making it difficult to put the book down.
Overall, it was an absorbing experience that left me eager for the next chapter in this thrilling saga.
My thanks to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘Double Dealings’, the second instalment in the Kennedy Twins series written by Stephanie Harte, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Daisy’s twin sister Lily is missing and she’s determined to find her even if it means siding with the enemy. But who’s taken Lily and who can she trust?
‘Double Dealings’ continues on from where ‘Double Trouble’ finished and with plenty of suspense, danger and violence, not to mention lots of bloodshed, this is a gritty gangland thriller that’s impossible to put down. I liked the characters especially those of Roscoe and Bernice, and I hope there’ll be a third in the series.
My first Stephanie Harte novel but definitely not my last. The characters were absolutely captivating and had me flipping pages long into the night. So many secrets and lies woven throughout. Pretty dark and gritty.
Thank you NetGalley, Stephanie Harte and Boldwood Books for the opportunity to read and review this book.
Double Dealings continues on from the first book where Lily has been kidnapped and twin sister Daisy will not give up until she finds her. This is a gritty gangland story full of violence, deceit and gang war. Much to my delight the plot had a lot of bloodshed but not so much that it was gory. I actually really like the females in the plot and I grew to quickly admire Bernice and I hope she will feature in the future books. The pages of the book turned themselves as I became obsessed with the story!
Firstly thank you Netgalley for this Arc
Wow what can I say another brilliant book by this brilliant author
Can’t wait to read more on this series
A great read! It was only when I got a quarter of the way in, that I realised that this was book number 2 in a series. I will definitely go back & read the first book, but I understood quite well what had happened previously.
There is grit, danger & suspense galore in this book, I enjoyed every minute, hanging on the edge of my seat at times & shouting at the book as you would with a TV program when you can see something unfolding, but the character can't. Really looking forward to reading number 1 & then number 3.
Daisy Kennedy is still missing
And she knows that Samson Fox has something to do with it
It was a good book and I enjoyed it
I had an ARC
This is just as brilliant as the first book in this series. Convinced Samson Fox is responsible for her twin sister Lily’s kidnapping, Daisy Kennedy joins forces with his biggest rival Roscoe Allen. However although Samson Fox is one tough gangland boss is he the one who has Lily? A gritty gangland thriller that is certainly not for the feint hearted this has plenty of twists and turns. I do like how each chapter is written from the main characters perspective and how there is absolutely no way of knowing how it’s going to turn out. With great complex characters, an intense storyline and some really gruesome scenes I read this in one day! Thanks to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for the ARC
Book two and be careful who you trust.
Double Dealings gritty gangland thriller with the Kennedy twins Lily and Daisy.
Loved it, absolute cracking story right through.
It's a one more chapter book that is unputdownable, with action going on in every one. 5 stars from me
This is a great gritty gangland thriller...
So many twists and turns. I hope there is another in the series
Thanks to all that let me read this book early. I loved it
This is the second book in the series, but can be read as a standalone.
I really enjoyed this gritty gangland thriller which involved kidnapping, guns, drugs, and lots of bloody violence. It was my first read by Stephanie Harte, but definitely will not be my last.
Thanks to the author, Boldwood Books, and NetGalley for providing me with this free ARC, with which I leave a voluntary review.
4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brilliant instalment of the gangland series. Daisy is left reeling when her twin sister is kidnapped and she swears to find her. She figures out it’s her old boss Samson Fox who has Lily but she needs help to bring him down.
Stephanie Harte as usual at her best loving this series and the complex characters brilliant.
This book was a mid book for me. Not sure I’m a fan of writing style. However, it was good enough for me to get through! Thank you
I have been waiting to read this book after the last one . Was worth the wait its a excellent book I couldn't put it down. Well worth a read.
The heat has been well and truly turned up full blast in this 2nd book in the Kennedy Twins series. The story is perfectly ruthless and gritty, much to my delight.
Daisy and Lily may be twins, but that doesn't make them close, but when the chips are down and Lily is kidnapped, Daisy will stop at nothing to get her sister back.
But who has taken Lily and why, and will there be other casualties in the quest to get her back.
The new addition to the series Bernice is a great move. I loved her.
Yet again, the ending leaves you craving more. I'm looking forward to book 3 already.Many thanks to Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the ARC.
This book is a show stopper - one I would give to my friends. I would buy multiple copies of this book for people! After reading plenty of thrillers it takes a lot these days for me to not work out the ending but this one totally got me. Overall really clever, well written and one I will be recommending.
