I do so enjoy Suzanne Enoch's books ~ regardless of whether it's one of her historicals or her contemporaries. She has such a way of creating connections between the reader and her characters. Her historicals are wildly romantic while her contemporary novels featuring, to date, the now-reformed, world class cat burglar Samantha Jellicoe and her once-almost-victim, now-lover billionaire Richard Adddison ~ Marquis of Rawley no less! ~ have a wonderful touch of humour that is deftly underlaid by a darkness that takes the stories to the level of romantic suspense. And in this the fourth book of the loosely connected series, the relationship between Sam and Rick continues to progress to a deeper level ~ but there is still a modicum of uncertainty.
Another excellent story that I'm now wondering just why it took me so long to read!? 
VERY, VERY, VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

FROM the BACK:
WHO SAYS CRIME DOESN'T PAY?
A year ago, Samantha Jellicoe robbed from the rich and gave . . . to herself! Now, though, she's using her larcenous skills for good as a private security consultant, trying to walk the high road for her sexy billionaire boyfriend, Richard Addison, and asking herself if there's anything more torturous than tracking down priceless artifacts (only to give them back!).
So when the Metropolitan Museum of Art asks her for help, she's only too happy to leap into the fray again: If nothing else, this adventure will help her avoid that little (not!) sparkly item Rick's been hiding in his pocket, and postpone another kind of walk ~ down the aisle. It's only when she's targeted by a deadly adversary after the same treasure that Sam starts to think that "till death do you part" is maybe the lesser of two evils. . .
