I've received a ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
If you have read one fake relationship trope novel, you’ve read them all. “Cash” features Kara Langley who is in need fast cash to pay her ailing father’s gambling debts which accumulated over $140,000. Her big break comes when she goes to an interview and begs for a position as a Blackjack dealer at the world renown Billionaire Club despite it being known that her father was ban from every casino on the strip for reading cards. Cash Westbrook, multi-billionaire and the same man who is responsible for the termination of Kara’s father job takes notice of her spit fire attitude. After a one-night-stand with Cash turns into a million-dollar bet, the bad boy billionaire asks Kara to be his fake fiance when his future business plans are at risk of collapsing. Agreeing to the arrangement to pay off the debt that is owe, Kara finds her life in danger when someone from her father’s past comes to collect. Coming to her aid when no has ever, Kara’s one step closer to being able to share her heart to Cash but would it be enough to heal their damaged hearts?
Kara and Cash were really good developed characters with decent backstories that help define who they are. Despite that, there wasn’t anything in particular that stood out from the series. There was definitely some some inconsistencies with the story and the romance seem like a little middle schoolish (instant romance, come on!), which I’m not a fan of unless the novel falls in the erotica genre. Speaking of erotica, the smexy scenes were probably the best about this series, considering that, the author should've just made this into an erotica instead of a romance novel. There was barely any real romance in it anyway. Overall, it was a good read but nothing to brag about. I've rated the series a good 3.5 stars, I opted to give it a 3 star Goodreads rating instead of rounding it off to 4 stars since there were more than a few things that bother me about the series content.

Cash came out of nowhere and waltzed right into Kara's life. He is the typical rich play boy billionaire but he's also,in a weird twist of fate, everything she needs.
Cash moves fast and is over before you know it. It's a sexy romp towards a happily ever after.

Cash was such a great standalone romance read. I devoured this book from beginning to end. I loved the characters, the storyline and the flow of the story. This was the perfect read for me. I absolutely loved Cash and Kara together. This story is one that is insta-love/lust with steamy scenes, action and a bit of suspense. The epilogue was perfect and left me with a happy feeling!!!! I will definitely be recommending this romance book to my family and friends.

CASH is the fourth instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYERS erotic, romances series. This is billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley’s story line. CASH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Kara and Cash) CASH follows the fake engagement and building relationship between billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley. Kara Langley is desperate for money to pay her father’s medical bills when the opportunity of a lifetime finds our heroine the new Black Jack dealer at a private billionaire’s club, a club where she will meet the man with whom she will fall in love. Enter billionaire playboy and manwh*re Cash Westbrook, a man with more than his share of media disasters. When Westbrook Oil deems Cash a threat to the stability of the board, in desperation Cash sets about to clean up his image starting with a ‘fake’ fiancé in the form of Kara Langley. What ensues is the building relationship and love between Kara and Cash, and the potential fall-out as Kara’s father’s past seeks redemption for sins of the past using Kara and the people she loves in their need for retribution and repayment.
Cash is desperate to make good on the promise to clean up his image in an effort to reclaim his seat on the board but desperation meant finding the first available woman willing to play along as his fake fiancé, a move that threatens his family and his life. Kara Langley struggles to pay the mounting bills for her father’s medical treatments but sins from the past threaten any semblance of peace when Kara is targeted, and her life becomes a bargaining chip in a dangerous game on the Las Vegas strip. When Cash offers Kara one-million dollars to play his fake fiancé, Kara hopes to stay one step ahead of those trying to destroy her life.
The relationship between Kara and Cash is one of immediate attraction but Cash doesn’t do relationship, and the latest media frenzy refuses to die down as Cash’s personal life is paparazzi fodder. Kara is desperate enough to take Cash up on his offer but outlines three rules that must be obeyed in an effort to remain in control of the situation. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense
We are introduced to Cash’s parent Anne and Jacob Westbrook, as well as Kara’s father Kurt Langley, and his aide Jacie, as well as Kara’s friend Suzy. We are reintroduced to Knox Savage of Savage Security, as well as security guards Dex and Hector. The requisite evil has many faces.
CASH is a story of family, desperation, addiction and love. The premise is engaging, entertaining and enticing; the characters are colorful, energetic and charismatic; the romance is passionate and seductive. CASH is a fast paced, sizzling and animated story line.

Not having read any other books by the author before, I didn’t know what to expect before reading Cash. Needless to say, I was impressed with the overall story it definitely kept me reading non-stop until the very end.
From the synopsis, we know that Kara Langley needs money and fast. Ever since her dad was diagnosed with lung cancer she has been over her head with hospital bills and on top of that she is also paying his previous debts. That is exactly how the story begins, with Kara getting interviewed to work at a very exclusive club in Las Vegas, the Billionaire Club. It is the only casino of its class in the strip and a very hard place to get a job at. With her connections she is able to get the interview, but almost doesn’t get the job because of who her dad is. All the casinos have decided to banned him from entering them and since Kara is his daughter she is finding it difficult to get a job. But it’s her blackjack skills that get her the job, after all she learned from the best and she is ready to work. That is until her dad’s previous employer shows up at the casino ready to make a conversation with her only to discover that they both seem to have an instant connection to each other. Which ultimately leads them to an adventure that would change their lives forever.
Cash Westbrook has everything, at twenty-seven he is the Executive Vice President of Westbrook Oil and that makes him a very well-known billionaire in Last Vegas. But it’s his notorious playboy ways that always get him in trouble and he needs to fix his reputation or he’ll get kicked out of the company. He is a very handsome and charming man that could get just about anyone, but in order to fix his reputation he needs to find a pretend fiancee to charm the board of directors at a weekend event. Cash wasn’t expecting to feel a pull towards Kara at the casino when they met, but he can’t get her out of his head and he needs to make a move before it’s too late. Neither of them realized that by meeting each other it would change the course of their lives and as they go through ups and downs they will have to decide if fighting for their relationship is worth it or not.
I loved reading Cash. It’s truly a book filled with twists and turns from beginning to end. Cash is the perfect guy for Kara, he is sweet and caring. He knows that Kara holds secrets of her own when they first meet and yet he is willing to give her the space that she needs in order to gain her trust. On the other hand, Kara is a total badass with her blackjack skills and she is totally perfect for Cash. They truly balance each other out and their chemistry is sizzling from the start. Although I enjoyed reading the story, there were times when I felt that the author rushed the story or skip on events. The ending felt a bit rushed for me, but the epilogue totally made up for it. I cannot wait to read more from Cassia Leo in the future and I definitely recommend checking this book out! :)

This is a book had everything, a fun read with Billionaire who has lived his life with wine women and song. When he wants to be taken seriously, he decided he needs a fake fiancée. After meeting Kara at the millionaire’s gambling club and decides it’s his last night gambling.Then he asks her if she willing to be his fake fiancée to help impress the board of Westbrook Oil the company his family built. After all his antics they’re are saying he is detrimental to the Image of the company.
The chemistry between Cash and Kara is of the charts, as they get to know each other their affection begins to turn into love. While Cash has been open and you can’t help but love him. Kara keeps her secrets,they certainly came back to bite her. My god Cash was wonderful to Kara, but she was determined to keep her father’s problems to her self.
Cash and Kara were so good together it was wonderful story to read, with chemistry of the charts, scorching hot sex , and plenty of action in and out of the bedroom. this book had it all. One of those you start reading and before you know it your at the end. What a wonderful epilogue!
