Book Review: Cuffed by His Charm by Stacey Kennedy

Cuffed by His Charm (Dirty Little Secrets, #4)
A tabloid scandal unites a powerful mogul and a woman from the wrong side of the tracks in this tantalizing novel from the USA Today bestselling author of Bound Beneath His Pain and the Club Sin series.

The multimillionaire owner of a chain of successful Irish pubs, Gabe O’Keefe loves being in the spotlight almost as much as he loves women. But when all his secrets are exposed in a shameless tabloid, his glistening reputation takes a hit. What hurts most is learning who sold him out: sweet and sensual McKenna Archer, his own employee. Gabe thought he could trust her. But now he’s got bigger problems than keeping his hands off McKenna.

After putting a difficult past behind her, McKenna would never betray Gabe. But she knows someone who would: her brother, a compulsive gambler who owes money all over town. To make things right, McKenna will have to set aside her feelings for her boss. Easier said than done. Gabe oozes pure temptation. But when they team up, McKenna sees that he isn’t the manwhore she always thought. He’s strong. He’s real. And the heat between them is the only thing that makes sense anymore.


Cuffed by His Charm is the fourth book and final book in the Dirty Little Secrets Series. The story line continues in this suspense filled romance. You do not need to read the series in order, each story is an independent romance. 

We pick up with Gabe O'Keefe confronting the possible snitch, his employee, love interest, McKenna Archer. Gabe and McKenna share a mutual attraction but Gabe has kept his distance because McKenna is his employee.  Now all bets are off since discovering that McKenna is the snitch. 

As it turns out, it was McKenna's brother who has sold out Gabe and his friends to the tabloids. Now the issue is McKenna's brother is missing and Gabe has to put his feeling aside or lose McKenna.

I really enjoyed this series but I felt Cuffed by His Charm was a small let down. McKenna, our heroine, didn't have enough balls. She didn't get angry in spite of being hurt but rather she was a doormat. Although at the beginning of the story Gabe made a terrible decision he redeemed himself by putting aside his personal feelings in order to keep McKenna. 3 Stars
