In Earth's battle-ridden future, humans have evolved. Those with extraordinary skills rise to power and fame. Those without live in poverty. Sixteen-year-old Willow Kent believed she was normal. But when a genetically-advanced military officer shows up in her village and questions her identity, long-buried secrets begin to emerge. With remarkable skills and a shocking genetic code the Core and its enemies will do anything to obtain, Willow suddenly finds the freedom she craves slipping through her fingers. Greed, corruption, and genetic tampering threaten every aspect of her existence as she's thrust, unwilling, into the sophisticated culture of the elite Core city. To ensure peace, she must leave the past behind, marry a man she's never met, and submit to the authority of a relentless officer with a hidden agenda of his own. Her life has become a dangerous game. How much will she sacrifice in order to win?

May your moves end in checkmate
By Cin Ngo
We're just getting started
Overall, this book was a solid read.
This book had me hooked nearly from that start and our heroine Willow is truly a force to be reckon with. I've stepped away from dystopian a bit because it is severely a cluttered genre at this point, but I truly enjoyed this book.
It takes place in a world where the value of a person's life is largely determined by their DNA. People and Ritters are engineered to be stronger, faster, more deadly etc.
We're introduced to an interesting cast of characters with Reece, Aspen, Morry and Fenn to name a few. I loved Aspen the most to be honest because he is just so relaxed and feels so natural. In a book that's somewhat heavy he is a breath of fresh air. Fenn was another character I adored because he is just so sweet and fatherly from the start. I hope he stays that way and doesn't turn out to be playing some sort of game.
Reece I did not like at the start but seeing as he's our girl's main love interest I knew we'd get to know him better. And I do like him by the end of the book. But he has such an air of mystery about him that I am a bit wary still. I could say the same for Morry something about that women just does not sit right.
Lastly, Thess. We did not get to meet him until nearly end of this book. Considering he was suppose to be Willow's fiance I thought we would meet him earlier to be honest. Yet at the same time as I got further and further into the book I had a feeling they were keeping his introduction potentially for when our group came into crisis, and naturally we got just that. Unfortunately, he is not the pleasant sweet jokester his cousin Aspen is. But that is no surprise. He has been groomed to essentially reign supreme. I do hope his relationship with Willow improves though because he could be a really valuable ally to her cause if she can sway him.
At this point, I think this book is a bit more romance focused than dystopian. Which is not necessarily bad because I like the main couple enough. But I'm actually much more interested in all the new technologic advances they've made, along with learning more about the rebels and their cause. Because clearly the government is corrupt. So I suppose it's a matter of seeing who is truly the lesser of two evils.
Looking forward to seeing what lies ahead for our dear Willow and hoping for her that her moves end in checkmate.

Such a unique book!
By Kei @ The Lovely Pages Reviews
4 stars!
“A gambit. It's a sacrifice play made at the beginning of a chess game.”
I have two reviewing modes, 1) review immediately because FEELS and 2) review a month later because FEELS. In both cases, I'm either too overwhelmed with feels that I need to talk to someone or I'm too overwhelmed with feels that I need to process the epicness. And there was a lot of epicness here.
Gambit was such a unique book and I love it when authors come up with new ideas to write and amaze the readers, this is also the author's debut novel and way to go CLD, this is how you debut!
I don't like comparing books to other books no matter how similar they are but for this review and in order to make a point I'll have to borrow a few choice words from the X-Men universe. So, Willow's story is set in a dystorian world were people have "mutations" for lack of a better word although it has more to do with DNA and stuff, but let's use a familiar term, like the X-Men universe, that give them powers. Some have Xavier-like powers, tracking other's with powers, everyone's powers are unique and they develop after a certain age, not always being successful, it might actually be fatal for the person. Willow is a tavern's daughter until the day a Core officer appears, looking for something. Willow and Reece hate each other from the get go and it's hilarious and so fun to read, he's cold and professional, literally won't tolerate her behavior, and she is always on his case.
There isn't much to spoil, it does say in the blurb that her identity is in question so I might as well talk about it since it actually happens pretty early. Willow was switched as a baby from the Core city and given to her foster family and someone placed another baby in her place; now that the fraud is exposed just before an arranged marriage took place, the Roanoke family are searching for their biological daughter.
There's a a great world building and a lot of story showing instead of story telling which is lacking in a lot of successful novels so this was so refreshing to read and actually have to be patient until things were revealed instead of falling face first into the story and a sea of brand new information. The story takes the readers to an amazing journey that I enjoyed immensely.
There is a romance somewhere between the dystopian world - that is kickass and actually has a more medieval feel to it but with technology and is taking place in London, we even get a glimpse of the Big Ben - between Willow and someone I won't spoil. But the story made me work for it, I was actually waiting to see how the romance was going to come into the picture, she already has an arranged marriage waiting for her, but she does have a life back home and an almost boyfriend, Asp, which was adorable and so freaking cute! But also, her new life is pretty exciting at the same time, and there is a person I didn't see being into her... all I'm saying is, well played book!
Secondary characters and the rest are just as fascinating, the Ritters were something else, I need more of those creatures please! Every character was awesome to be honest, this was too good!
The writing is amazing, the world building is extraordinaire and the characters have flaws and they are badass, witty and sassy and they are multi-dimensional, I'm honestly scared to read the sequel, I don't know how it can get any better but I'm looking forward to being pleasantly surprised!

GAMBIT was full of mystery and intrigue and kept me interested.
By Urban Fantasy Investigations
I don't exactly know what I was expecting when I started reading GAMBIT, but it ended up being way more than I thought it would be and I really enjoyed it.
Willow lives what she considers a normal life with her family in a small village until a military officer shows up and questions her identity. She quickly learns that the normal life she has always loved is about to change and she doesn't see it as for the better. Besides the occasional sixteen-year-old tantrum, I found Willow to be a strong character. I enjoyed her way of thinking and I enjoyed watching her grow into herself and her new life.
If I am 100% honest I seriously hated the romantic interest. He was HORRIBLE to Willow in the beginning and it took me a really long time to get over it and look past it. As I got to know him, I ended up liking him a little more, but I'm not sold on him yet. I am interested to see what he does in book two and if it makes me see him in a whole other light.
GAMBIT was full of mystery and intrigue and kept me interested. I loved the world and the whole genetic code causing abilities story line really worked for me. There were quite a few side characters that kept things even more interesting than they already were. I think as the series continues they will continue to intrigue me. I am really excited to see what happens next for Willow and hope the wait won't be too long until book two.
