Waiting On Wednesday (699) The Last Grift (Subtle Deceptions #1) by Elle Keaton

Expected Publication: April 24, 2025
Genre: MM, Mystery, Romance


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings
that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.
(WoW was previously hosted by Breaking The Spine.)

This is my favorite day of the week because I love sharing and discovering new books.

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Jaded confidence man Gabriel Karne is on the run. A literal snarling, slobbering guard dog nips at his heels. If he makes it over the chain-link fence, he vows to skip town for friendlier climes. Somewhere no one knows his name.

It will be fine. Everything will be fine. Less than twenty-four hours on the island and Gabriel's already had a nasty confrontation with two local good ol’ boys, earned a trespassing citation from an infuriating but compelling forest ranger, and offered to search for a missing person. So much for lying low.

Being off his game only partially explains why Gabe would rather focus on a stranger’s bad luck than his own. Fact is, he's always had a soft spot for losers and maybe, just maybe, he's tired of the game.

(The Last Grift is the first installment in the Subtle Deceptions series, a small town mystery with romantic elements. The series, part of the Piedras Island and Veiled Intentions universe, follows the unplanned adventures in the life and love of the disreputable Gabriel Karne.)


I've read this author's Piedras Island and Veiled Intentions series, so I'm very familiar with the location and the people. I'm excited to read an entire series with the same main character. (Her previous series feature a different MC in each book.)

What are you waiting on this week?

  1. Ooh nice! That's a new to me one! I do enjoy reading a series that follows the same character! That's usually my norm so reading a series with different MC is also a nice breath of fresh air too! Lol.
