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.

Loved it. Will recommend to others

The BRAND NEW instalment in Stephanie Harte’s gripping gangland series, perfect for fans of Martina Cole and Kerry Kaya!

Stephanie Harte writes a brilliant gangland and this has been no different. This is another great set of characters and we have a sister out for revenge. Hell hath no woman scorned is certainly applicable to Daisy.

She wants nothing more than her sister to return home safely which leads to an interesting acquaintance in the form of Roscoe Allen.

This has been an addictive page turner. I devoured this in just one sitting. I’ve absolutely no regrets. This was intense and brilliant to read.

This is a great book with plenty of action taking place.the tension and suspense is perfectly plotted and enough twists to keep you guessing.

This is a book I absolutely recommend

This is the 2nd book in the series of The Kennedy Twins. I thoroughly enjoyed this book which centres round the sisters Daisy and Lily with Lily been kidnapped and Daisy vowing to stop at nothing to rescue her.

It is a very fast paced book with plenty of unexpected twists resulting in a gritty page turner which you'll find very hard to put down once you start reading.

Another 5 star review which I thoroughly recommend, can't wait for the 3rd installment in this series. Thanks to Netgalley for giving me the opportunity of receiving an early copy.

If you love Martina Cole, Kimberley Chambers and any author that writes British Gangland books you're sure to love anything by Stephanie Harte.

Double Dealings is the second in the Kennedy Twins series and I thoroughly enjoyed this book but I could only give it 4 stars for the same reason I only gave the previous book (Double Trouble) 4 starts too. Both books came to an abrupt and premature end cut off simply, it seems, to make readers wait for the next book. I love a series so I have no problem waiting for another book but both of the books in this series could have progressed further and it would have made so much more sense than stopping them where they actually ended.

Cassie is still desperately trying to find her twin Lily who has been taken in this latest installment and in the process she is getting involved with people that are bound to make the situation a lot worse. Added to this, she has to tell her parents that Lily is missing and sees her father get violently attacked. Luckily she finds some support but ends up seeing things that she is going to take a very long time to forget.

"Double Dealings" is the second book in the Kennedy Twins saga. If you enjoy suspenseful, twisted, and gritty stories, this book is for you. It's incredibly addictive and will keep you turning the pages.

Set against the backdrop of nightclubs and gangland activities, danger lurks around every corner. The story features a mix of likable and unlikable characters.

The plot centers around twin sisters Lily and Daisy. Lily has been kidnapped, and Daisy is determined to rescue her.

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.

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

Was this review helpful?

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

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
