And now here we are and desperately addicted to her words. I started with her Madison Kate series and proceeded on an immediate binge of Tate's backlist. I know! I know! I'm kicking myself, trust me. I have clearly been living under a rock, because I only discovered Tate James books this year. I wished she would trust me, and that was the most selfish thing I could possibly ask…because I had every intention of taking her trust and using it for my own gain. Character cameos from other series are minor and inconsequential. This M/F romance is set in the Shadow Grove world but can be read independently of the other Shadow Grove books. HEIST is book ONE of THREE in the Valenshek Legacy series.
Nothing will stop me winning the game, not even the sultry, quick witted brunette who lures me into her painting studio with the most irresistible bait. The only person standing in my way is her. It’s a painting that disappeared into the blackmarket decades ago, but I know where to find it. Starting with a legendary painting of poppy flowers. There’s nothing I can’t steal, and this time, the game is all about theft, subterfuge, and sleight of hand. I’m at the top of my field now, the best of the world’s thieves. Things that only a crazy person would tackle. The challenges range from the impossible to the deadly to the truly insane. She makes an enemy out of him.Every four years, the criminal underworld engages in a game. It’s there she meets Sebastian and his crew. Of course, she rebels, and on her first night there, she ends up racing and losing. Suddenly, she is at a rich mansion, facing a Cruella alike biological mother, that wants to turn her into something she’s not. The fact that she lost her whole family before she turned 18, and was returned to her birth mother made an interesting turn of events. What I did love was that Riley was into racing and this was actually the thing that made me buy the book. I guess this is why I feel a bit disappointed, but the authors did a good job writing a book that fits its audience. Now, THAT would have been more intriguing. Not to mention, boys with ages 17-20 with all these skills? I guess it would have made more sense if this was a paranormal series. Things like their uniform, or cattish slut shaming vibes. I feel like this is a typically bully, enemies to lovers romance that resembles the same as other trope related books, only this one isn’t reverse harem.īut, I do enjoy them and managed to read the book avoiding some things that bugged me.
I think the authors wanted to make Riley the center of it all, that they make her judge everyone else for the things she is actually doing. I really have mixed feelings about this one.
