Don’t Go Stealing My Heart by Kelly Siskind
Goodreads Summary:
She wants to steal his Van Gogh. He wants to steal her heart.
Some people would call Clementine Abernathy a criminal. She considers herself a modern day Robin Hood, who steals from the rich and gives to the poor. Not exactly on the up-and-up, but she knows what it’s like to lose everything. Her latest heist involves swiping a priceless Van Gogh from its owner, who’s supposed to be an egotistical trust-fund brat.
Turns out Jack David is a sexy, kind-hearted man…and Clementine is in trouble. Falling for her mark would make her the World’s Dumbest Conwoman, but Jack is charmingly persistent, always singing sweet songs in her ear.
And that earth-shattering kiss? She never stood a chance.
Now she’s imagining a fresh start with this dashing man, but that means telling Jack about her past. And other nefarious sorts are after the same painting. Too soon, Clementine learns what it means to risk it all for love.
My Review:
I loved this book! I don’t usually read more suspenseful romance books, but I definitely loved that about this. I read the entire book in a day. I didn’t want to put it down! There were some weird aspects to this book like Elvis impersonators and bearded dragons, but it somehow all worked together in its own adorable way.
I also appreciated how authentically the characters’ emotions were handled along with affects of trauma, etcetera. I thought that was written well, while still keeping the book fairly light. That being said, what we learned at the end shocked me! I didn’t see that coming! All in all, I really loved this book and would definitely recommend it!
