Pretty Darn Good

This book has the feel of JD Robbs "In Death" series. The main character, Sam, is a thief. Rick is the super-rich love interest who wants Sam to go straight. Mildly familiar or not, it's fun. And like Robb's series, the romance continues past the first book. So often with romances--everything comes to a happy stopping point. In this series, however, the relationship continues to develop in the following books. I enjoy the growth of the story and the return of characters as "main" characters instead of cameo's in subsequent books. I would recommend it. See book 2, "Don't Look Down"; book 3 "Billionaires Prefer Blondes"; and book 4 "A Touch of Minx". If you like the idea of a continuing love story and a mystery check out the In Death series and Brenda Joyce's "Deadly" series. The first books are Naked in Death and Deadly Love.

GREAT Book!

I actually read Billionaire Prefer Blondes before I read this book so I was really excite see how Sam and Rick met.

Samantha Jellicoe is cat burglar who was assigned to rob a table from Billionaire Richard Addison. Instead of stealing from Rick, Sam ends up saving his life. When the media starts blaming Sam for trying to kill Rick, Sam decides to get help from Rick. Once they decide help each other, the chemistry between is undeniable.

I absolute LOVE this book. I ended buying all three of the books that has been out so far in this series. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Took a chance, got lucky

This is my first Suzanne Enoch book and I am very pleased. She writes a mystery that is amusing, witty, and suspenseful. I will be reading more of her books in the coming months.

A Gem about a Thief and The Richy Rich Man Who Adores Her (B+ Grade)

Suzanne Enoch has written a hip, sexy and funny book about a professional thief and her new mark or rather love interest who is rich beyond belief. Not many authors have the skill to pull off these wonderful characters and their witty conversations, but Enoch does an incredible job, perhaps even better than her trademark historical romances.
Samantha is a professional thief who learned her trade from her dead father. She is hired to steal a priceless artifact from Rick Addison, who is mega rich, hotter than hot and a press reporter's dream.
But Sam has been set up and Rick finds her with her hands in the so-called cookie jar. But a bomb blows and that is the beginning of their relationship.
They team up to find out who wanted to kill Rick or maybe even Sam along with setting her to take the fall. Rick starts to fall for this mysterious woman and soon they are partners in bed. And those scenes are very hot and sexy to read!
Flirting with Danger is such an enjoyable and inventive start in a series about two people who are so different from each other, but fall hard into each other's arms.
Funny, action and of course some hot sex is an only a bit of what awaits. Plus Rick has a thing for expensive cars and loves to hold Sam's hand. Sam just likes to jump his bones.
A true winner from Suzanne Enoch!

Respect is due to Sam.

I thoroughly enjoyed this restrained romance between burglar Samantha and billionaire Rick. Published in the Avon Romantic Suspense series which means there's a lot of 'who cares' plot which climaxes in a gobsmackingly violent denoument scene. The heroine gets her head battered repeatedly by the baddie. Unbelieveably she seems to make a complete recovery in just about 2 weeks. I felt all her pain even if she didn't.

There are no secondary romances (praise be) and reading Sam and Rick together was a nicely sensuous experience.

Sometimes I didn't really like how Samantha speaks but that wasn't a big concern. After all the story is set in Palm Beach and we all know the wives/girlfriends of Florida millionaires are foul-mouthed. My other criticism is that the brit lord, Rick Addison, is mostly portrayed as refined, rich and classy when at the end of the novel he is shown to be a mean, vengeful shark. And the american heroine is too often called a no-class whore by other characters in the book when she's nothing of the sort. Also 'Mr Wonderful' Rick totally fails to protect Sam from harm. And he stops wearing 'body armor' after only 2 days into their biblical relationship.

With each twist and turn in the plot I kept asking myself 'Why does he stay with her,' or 'Why does she stay with him.' And I liked the fact that the answer wasn't necessarily 'He has money,' or 'She's beautiful and clever.'

In the end I read the story about 2 or 3 times. And each time I felt more sympathy for Sam, the burglar heroine. Ok, she's an unconvicted felon. But basically she goes through the whole story with some quite serious, deep cuts on her back and leg. Which she got when she protected Rick from the bomb blast. Yet she rarely complains nor does she allow her injuries to cramp her style.

Plus. It's not her fellow criminals who are doing all the killing.

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.
