Oh I love a heist! Add in fast cars and hot guys and you got yourself a stew goin'. Camille was a very likable heroine, for all her prickliness, and Nero is fully smitten, as he should be. A fun crime adventure with a prickly grumpy/psycho grumpy romance where the stakes aren't quite as high as they were in the last two novels.

This book was good i still think Stolen heir is my fav so far i did also discover that the author has another series about the main characters of this series kids which i am definitely reading that i loved Nero in this book i found him funny at certain parts of the book in this book you only hear about Mikolaj and Nessa where you actually meet Aida and Callum again in this book i love how interconnected these books are they can be read as standalone and they all are happy ending but i do recommend to read them in order i love how you always meet a character in the book that your gonna see in the next i can’t wait to read Dante and Simone’s book next this series is a nice fast good read i did get anxiety more then any other book in this series so far but i still did enjoy it i also did love the Description of Neros appearance and the illustrations that gave me a better look at him😍😍😍overall im enjoying this series so much and i rated it five stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book wasn’t as good as the first or second if I’m being honest. I feel like I expected more than what I got if I’m being honest. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy it. 

Nero from the start was a sweetheart even if he was cold hearted and “bad”. You could tell from the start that he was going to end up falling for the girl he never noticed. Camille was a sweetie. She acted like she didn’t want to fit in or that she didn’t care about the opinions of other people, but as the story went on you see that get expanded on. I liked them both together and I liked how well they fit eachother.

I also love how there was no 3rd act conflict 😍 was surprised by that but it was insanely refreshing. The spice in it was hot and I love the drawings that get included every few chapters that expand on what is currently playing out.

Definitely giving a Fast and Furious mixed with Oceans 11 vibe. I really liked Camille and Nero! She is a bit of an underdog who you cannot help but root for. She is passionate, strong, and smart. He is a hot head, who is the definition of a bad boy. 

Spoiler

Camille lives with her brother and father, they are struggling and her father is sick. Her brother gets tangled up with a drug dealer and is caught with Ecstasy in his backpack by a cop. Camille takes the fall for her brother and is forced to become a CI. She has had some bad luck and is trying all she can to get her brother a better life.
 
Her connection to Nero is deep and emotional. They had so much chemistry and were so vulnerable with each other.

This one is definitely more of a slow burn compared to the others, which I loved.  I loved seeing the bits and pieces of Nero's family throughout. I found this plot to be more believable than the previous books. 

Tropes: Good girl/bad boy, opposites attract, slow burn
