About this ebook

They’ve got chemistry. But he’s her brother’s worst enemy—and arresting officer.

For Officer Dare Barron, there’s only one good thing about bad-boy Brian McKnight getting thrown in the drunk tank again. Being there when Brian’s sister, Liza, strides into the precinct on those long, delectable legs to bail her brother out.

It’s not just the old building’s failing air conditioning making Dare sweat. Liza is a contradiction of proper lady and sexy siren who’s riveted Dare’s attention since high school.

She’s always been oblivious, which is a good thing because she’s way out of his league. Plus, she’s got a huge blind spot where her brother’s concerned, and Dare knows what’s hiding in that void she refuses to see.

When one of those secrets threatens Liza’s safety, Dare doesn’t hesitate to appoint himself her protector. Close proximity awakens Liza’s desire for the sexy cop and fuels the sizzling heat between them, but the bad blood between their families could ruin any chance for love.

Note: Karma is book five of Serendipity series by NYT bestselling author Carly Phillips. Contains a by-the-book cop with some hot off-shift fantasies about the girl of his dreams, and a woman who doesn’t quite mind being looked at like she’s a hot fudge sundae.

Ratings and reviews

This is the fifth book and the last brother we have been waiting for. Dare lives with a lot of guilt from when he was 15 and the event that changed his life forever. Liza is intertwined with that event because of her brother and the guilt she feels. Not gonna lie Dare has some prime swoon worthy moments, but then he does something that makes me want to knock some sense into him. I get the inner struggle he is dealing with when he grapples with his feelings for Liza and his inner issues.

I really enjoyed this secret crush, steamy story. On the outside, Dare is REALLY fine, but on the inside he is trying very hard to run from his demons. Liza has many demons of her own but for some reason Dare calms those fears. Together these two make a perfect pair. This story will take you through all of the emotions but in the end, you will have a great feel good ending.

Even though I have read most of Carly Philips` books, I hadn`t taken the time yet to read some of her earlier novels like the Serendipity Series. I`m so happy that she has updated and re-published them because it would have been a shame to not have read them! Karma was my favorite! I loved the emotion packed and suspenseful story!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
