OCEAN'S 8 meets Janet Evanovich, this fast-paced crime caper features one badass mother, with a certain set of skills who is forced to come out of retirement to protect her son, and teach a few men a few lessons!
Ex-con artist Bee Cardello is going legit. Divorced from her mafia boss husband, she is determined to stay on the straight and narrow. So, when ex-hubby Charlie steals $37.5 million from a dangerous kingpin, who puts out a hit on Bee and her ten-year-old son Oliver, she finds herself pulled back into the life she's worked so hard to escape.
Part of that old life being one Adam Gage – an old flame and all-round sexy badass who Charlie's now employed to keep her and Oliver safe . . . well, that's what he tells her. Bee has been in this game long enough to know that everyone is in it for themselves, and she'd be stupid to trust Adam . . . again.
When Oliver is snatched from right under their noses, rather than risk losing him forever, Bee gathers her old team, dusts off all her old grifting tricks, and comes out of retirement to get her son back!
I really enjoyed this book. Bee is such a character and I instantly found that I liked her. And it appears that no-one is quite what they seem at times!! I had a few surprises where I was like huh - I didn't see that coming!
I found that I couldn't put it down as I needed to see where it was headed and how things were going to turn out, there was action, suspense and humour along the way. There were times where I was literally laughing out loud.
I loved the writing style and thought that the ideas and charactrers were really well thought through. You can grab a copy here #Aff (If you buy a copy through this link I get a teeny commission of the sale from Amazon)
