Will she risk it all for a priceless desire?
A rising star in one of London's top art investigation firms, Zara Leighton's talent for seeing deep into paintings is in her blood. She's chosen to help track down Icon, an enigmatic international art thief whose heists are methodical, daring, baffling. To Zara the case is maddening—bordering on an obsession.
She finds distraction in the chiseled form of top-shelf client Tobias Wilder, a magnetic American billionaire who demands her expertise, her discretion—and her secrecy. Wilder doesn't ask questions. He gives orders. His gaze alone ignites her deepest fantasies. And his touch…
The sudden whirl of exclusive exhibitions and decadent parties that Wilder introduces her to is a potent aphrodisiac. But surrender soon becomes tinged with suspicion. Is Zara's tryst with Wilder the real thing…or just a convincing forgery?
4 1/2 STARS......A GREAT Thomas Crown Affair-ish adventure. Zara, the young forensic art specialist meets and falls for the enigmatic Tobias Wilder, a philanthropist, inventor, and art lover.
She has a natural love for art and a desire for new adventures. Her new job has her involved in solving the disappearance of a famous painting, possibly stolen by the elusive ICON. Her adventure has her ending up a suspect. The heat is on in identifying the culprit, avoiding a family scandal, clearing her name and possibly reputation in the art world.
Zara and Tobias also partake in some interesting adventures of their own, including some steamy scenes. Tobias is evasive and secretive, Zara is constantly trying to get him to be transparent. In the back of her mind, she thinks he hiding something...........or are some events just coincidental?
I really enjoyed this suspenseful and seductive tale. Plus, I experienced a first, I actually LIKED the cliffhanger. We got a great ending that doubled as an enticing continuation for the second book in the trilogy, The Game.......which I may start tomorrow.
