1. I give most of KJ Charles books but I gotta say I think this is her best work. I think it’s the best spice and one of the best plots.
No I think one was my only point. This one had so many twists I didn’t see coming and I really enjoyed it.

When I started reading Any Old Diamonds, I did not expect it to (metaphorically) shank me between the ribs and leave me bleeding out on the floor about halfway though. As soon as I've recovered, I need to do a re-read.

Marvelous! KJ Charles does not disappoint!! Full of thrills, witty humor, lush sexiness, and unexpected twists. The characters were layered and themes of moral and self discovery made them even richer. I loved every moment of this book!

ok ummmm
1) this book is super racy
2) I think it's my favourite new book I've read this year
3) it is all about a jewel thief ravishing a degenerate young aristocrat (who has hired him for revenge against his family)
4) it is SUPER racy
5) don't look at me
anyway it is Excellent, great writing, great character, feels very targeted to my tastes specifically, the language is very fun, I am going to go and purchase everything else this author has ever written now
