LA Vice Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 19 ratings

Where love, lies, and the law collide…

In Los Angeles–glitzy, grimy, a place where passions burn as bright as the Hollywood lights–two men find themselves snared in a web of secrets, danger, betrayal and a love that refuses to be extinguished.

Galen Luskey, once a rising legal star, has been reduced to scraping by with criminal clientele after his career took a nosedive two years ago. Witness to a murder that threatens to shatter the fragile stability he’s rebuilt, he has no choice but to turn to the one man he swore he’d never allow back into his life.

Lev Kavazanjian, a hardened LAPD detective nursing wounds of his own, reluctantly gets tangled up with Galen in the aftermath of the crime. Unhealed scars resurface and long-buried desires reignite, sparking a fierce attraction neither man can deny.

But with secrets in the shadows and enemies closing in, Galen and Lev must confront their pasts if they have any hope of a future together. Set in Kat Cassidy’s LA universe, “LA Vice” is a heart-pounding enemies-to-lovers tale of redemption, second chances, and the power of love to conquer all.

Can be enjoyed as a standalone. Rated M for mature.
CW: murder, depression, alcohol use.

Great second-chance MM romance
4 out of 5 stars
Great second-chance MM romance
Ticks all the boxes of things I love in #MMRomance:✅Enemies to lovers✅ Second chance romance✅ Forced proximity✅ Bed sharing✅ Dual POVI really enjoyed Kat Cassidy's previous LA universe books and the latest story set in that world is fast-paced yet slow-burn at the same time and includes just enough twists and turns to keep you wanting to know what's going to happen next.I liked the way the second-chance romance is pulled together and the forced-proximity premise as well as the way Lev and Galan need to work together even though they are technically on opposite sides of the law. I did feel that the reason for the original break-up was a little weak, but the reasoning for it makes sense in the broader context of the story arch.Overall an enjoyable read.I'm *really* looking forward to the next book!Four stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Standalone suspense. Second chance. Slow burn. Dual POV.

    Galen didn’t intend to become the lawyer for an LA drug queenpin, but here he is, and having an affair with her husband is just another slide into the downward spiral of his life. Police detective Lev is a dedicated cop, and things are getting messy in his hope of bringing Adara Giannopolous to justice with the murder of her husband, he inevitably has to cross paths with Galen, his former lover. Both Galen and Lev are interesting characters, both with flaws and past mistakes that haunt them, but neither can forget the time when they were happy together.

    I enjoyed the times when Galen and Lev are on page together, the peeks into their past relationship were my favorites, as well as the fact that both men are strong willed and intelligent if a little hesitant to be emotionally vulnerable. There are too many secrets on both sides, but the fast moving story allows each reveal to push the character’s motivations along, and with the continued intrigue and danger throughout this was an entertaining read. 4.5 rounded up

    A gritty second chance romance between a detective and attorney with forced proximity, playing house at a safe house, high emotions, slow burn, forgiveness, danger, and a satisfying ending. If you enjoy a good detective romance than I suggest jumping on this one (Galen is reason alone to give this one a read 🥰)

    I’ve really enjoyed this story and it appears there will be more with characters from this book. I’ll be watching for them.
    Lev is a detective who has been trying to bring down drug queenpin Adara Giannopoulos for a number of years. He has a history with her family.
    His ex Galen is an attorney for Adara which puts Lev and Galen at odds. They both still have an attraction but neither is dealing with it.
    When Adara’s husband is murdered things change when Galen needs Lev’s help.
    There is so much to this story. The romance is a big part that tore at my heart. The reason for their breakup is so sad.
    The mystery part is good. It slowly is revealed and the tension and actions kept me page turning.
    I really had a hard time setting this down until the end. I feel the flow to the story was consistent and held my interest all the way through. I loved both of the mc’s and felt sorry that they had not had better communication.
    I can’t wait for the next in the series.

    The author has a gift of character development. The two main characters felt very real. The plot was good. The book had the potential to be expanded to further develop the plot and side characters.
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2024
    I enjoyed the story, and found myself yelling at my Kindle screen when Lev couldn't figure out the bad guy was right under his nose the entire time. It was a fun, quick read - but it still had a fully fleshed out plot which I enjoyed. Character diversity, a nice slow-burn/second-chance MM relationship. Solid 3.5 stars.

    I have not read from this author before. but I truly appreciate the diversity in this book. So often queer romance books focus on the white characters over BIPOC. Additionally, the plot was enjoyable if not aggravating at times because we, us readers, knew who the villain/antagonist was, but it took far too long for Lev to figure it out. I may have used a few choice words to express my frustration with his surprising lack of observational skills.

    I did take away a star from the rating, however, as the drama sometimes read like a soap opera. I found it difficult to reconcile their reactions because they felt more like overreactions. Overall though, I did enjoy the writing and the plot.

    ARC received via NetGalley, and I have given my honest and voluntary review.

    LA Vice follows Galen, unexpectedly drawn into the role of lawyer for Adara Giannopolous, a prominent drug queenpin in Los Angeles. Complicating matters further, Galen finds himself entangled in an affair with Adara's husband, adding to the turmoil of his already tumultuous life. On the opposite side is police detective Lev, determined to bring Adara to justice for her husband's murder, which inevitably forces him to confront Galen, his former lover.
    Both Galen and Lev are complex characters, each grappling with personal flaws and past mistakes
    that haunt them. Despite their rocky history, they cannot deny the lingering affection they still harbor for each other, which adds depth to their interactions. The story weaves between their present predicaments and glimpses into their shared past, highlighting the poignant moments of their relationship.
    Their story is driven by intrigue, danger, and a web of secrets that continually shape the characters' motivations. Galen and Lev are portrayed as strong-willed and intelligent individuals, yet both struggle with emotional vulnerability, adding layers of complexity to their personalities.
    Their story captivates with its fast-paced storytelling, exploring themes of love, betrayal, and redemption against the backdrop of a suspense.
