Description: If he's not careful, she'll steal his heart, too ...
Tara Harris is a professional thief with a conscience. She makes her living retrieving priceless stolen items from sleazy rich jerks, and returning them to their rightful owners. Until a routine nighttime assignment when Tara suddenly finds herself pinned against the wall. And oh, does the hard male body pressed against her feel good. And damned familiar ... Busted. Jake Forsythe was Tara's former burglary partner, until he left her naked in bed--unsatisfied--and disappeared from her life years ago. Now he's back, hotter and more naughtily delicious than ever. And he has a nice, blackmailing kind of proposition--Tara can either help him with a secret project, or she can go to jail. But the moment Tara agrees to help Jake, she realizes she's just made a deal with a sexy-assed devil. Because this time, she stands to lose something more precious than any rare objets d'art ... Contains mature themes.Brief description: Diane Alberts is the pen name of New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Jen McLaughlin.
