About the Book:

Taunting riddles.
A deadly string of heists.
Two broken hearts trapped in a killer's game.


Christian Macleod was pulled into a life of crime at a young age by his con artist parents. Now making amends for his corrupt past, he has become one of the country's foremost security experts. When a string of Southwestern art heists captures the FBI's attention, Christian is paired up with a gifted insurance investigator who has her own checkered past.

Andi Forster was a brilliant FBI forensic analyst until one of her colleagues destroyed her career, blaming her for mishandling evidence. She now puts those skills to work investigating insurance fraud, and this latest high-stakes case will test her gift to the limit. Drawn deep into a dangerous game with an opponent bent on revenge, Christian and Andi are in a race against the clock to catch him, but the perpetrator's game is far from finished, and one wrong move could be the death of them both.

My Rating & Thoughts:    

I very quickly got invested in the story and was drawn to the characters of Andi and Christian. They meet when both start working a case of a gallery break-in. The attraction between them is obvious but they are focused on the case. While on the case they experience a few close calls that had me holding my breath at times. They get help from Christian's siblings and his agency. I loved the group interaction and learning about the siblings past. Story also switches pov from the two mains to Deckard and Haley and the villain. Each pov allowed me to feel more connected to the characters. In addition to trying to solve the case and stop the thieves the book is a romance and I was here for it. I didn't want to say bye to these characters and can't wait for book 2 to spend more time with all of them.
