I like Janet Evanovich novels. They make me laugh and I don’t really have to think too much. I can just enjoy the read. With this book, Evanovich teams up with Lee Goldberg a screen writer and you can definitely identify the special effects incorporated in the Heists written about in the book. So I am assuming this is what Goldberg brings to the writing table.
Gone is Stephanie Plum the bounty hunter. I kind of miss her and Lulu and Connie. After you read several Stephanie Plum novels they feel like your friends. But not to worry the author does a great job creating a new set of characters.
The main character is competent FBI Agent Kate O'Hare who is on a mission to catch a high class thief similar to the one found in the movie The Thomas Crown Affair which in case you have never seen this movie stars the gorgeous Pierce Brosnan. Add it to your must see movie list. It is a good movie.
Nick Fox (the thief) is an elegant thief who loves the stimulation and the thrill of planning and executing the theft of very expensive items. Kate wants to apprehend him and see that justice is served in the worst way. And of course she finds him sexy as heck. And in the first few chapters of the book she gets her man. Don't worry I didn't give away the plot. While being escorted to the courthouse he pulls a now you see me now you don't and once again Kate has a mission to always get her man. But there is a twist. Some how they end up sorking on the same side. Go figure! It's a fun summer read. Try it you'll like it. And from the way the novel is written it opens the door for more books written with these characters. Can't wait.
