The Palm Beach job should have been a slam dunk for thief extraordinaire Samantha Jellicoe: relieve a British playboy millionaire of a priceless antiquity. But when an explosion throws her into the arms of said playboy Rick Addison, even a pro like Sam has to review the rules ...
A Bad Girl's Guide To Flirting ...
Always wear black when breaking and entering -- it's both practical and slimming.
When asking a sexy multi-millionaire for help in clearing your name of murder, try dropping in through his skylight to get his attention.
You may consider staying in his mansion for "protection" but beware -- hidden grenades can spoil any bedroom fun.
For car chases and evading bad guys, take his Bentley Continental GT -- it has a roomy backseat.
Should he propose a legitimate partnership, make sure you really want to leave that life of crime behind. It also wouldn't hurt to keep the black dress handy, in case you change your mind ...
I have a new favorite author! An adult, as in witty, smart language, very funny with a good "whodunit", plus some sexy scenes--well, how better to waste a day then reading about a gorgeous cat burglary and her "mark", a billionaire who is also gorgeous, trying to stay one step ahead of a murderer.

Great book, love the suspense, humor and romance. This book has great sexual tension between the hero - Rick Addison and the heroine Samantha Jellicoe. I never knew what would happen next. If you love a strong female heroine, suspense, laughs, a gorgeous Brit and some steamy scenes, this book is for you!

Sam Jelicoe is an awesome character and this was such a fun book to read. Like the author, To Catch a Thief, starring Cary Grant and Grace Kelly came to my mind as well.

In her dazzling romantic suspense debut, USA Today bestselling author Suzanne Enoch brings us a thrilling tale about a thief who needs to prove she's no murderer and the millionaire who loves her.
Samantha Jellicoe is a thief and proud of it. Raised to appreciate the finer things in life, Sam has no trouble divesting the wealthy of their treasures. This all changed, however, the night she attempts to steal a valuable item from a Palm Beach estate. Before she knew what hit her, a bomb goes off, a guard is killed, and Sam ends up saving millionaire Richard Addison. She's a good thief and will own up to her jobs, but if anyone thinks to tie her to murder, they better think again.
On any other night, having a one hundred plus pounds of female fling herself at you is a good thing. But on this particular night, Richard Addison is mad as hell. Not only did he just have his gallery blown up-with him about to enter it-but the woman who rescued him didn't stick around to offer any explanations. When the dust settles, Rick knows the only person with answers to his questions is the mystery woman. And if she thinks she can hide from him, she better think again.
