Ring of Thieves #1
To Love a Thief
Knox
I’m The Charmer.
I flirt and bewitch; I steal the goods and get out. Nothing holds my attention longer than the time it takes to pull off a heist.
But when a job goes wrong and a gorgeous former Navy pilot comes to my rescue, all bets are off. Hunter does her best to resist me, but there’s no denying the attraction between us. I may be a thief, but she’s the one stealing my heart.
I’ll go to any lengths to convince her to give me a shot. As far as I’m concerned, all’s fair in love and thievery.
Hunter
I’m the bridesmaid, never the bride.
I watched my team find their soulmates and fall madly in love. But after being burned in a past relationship, fear keeps me grounded and my singed wings have forgotten how to fly.
So when a smooth-talking thief strolls into my life spewing silver-tongued compliments, my inner warning lights start flashing.
Before I know it, I’m swept up into Knox’s world, helping his crew find and return a stolen emerald. As dangerous enemies close in, Knox’s charms grow harder to resist.
I want to soar with him, but my wary heart would have to do the impossible—trust a thief.
**The Ring of Thieves series is written in alternating 1st POV and each book can be read as a standalone.

This is a little different than Charissa’s other stories but that doesn’t mean it isn’t just as magnificent a read as her others. It just means that Charissa has a wonderfully adaptive talent that genuinely knows no boundaries!!!
The banter, as always is so funny and addictive, but for me it’s the internal banter, especially that of Knox which cracks me up!! Lord save us from a man with an over inflated ego lol
Knox is such a fun and delicious character. He knows he has a winning smile and persona that he puts forth, which would usually put me off someone, but Knox is just so funny and appealing. I love his sense of found family and his support and dedication to his team is so heartwarming.
What I love most is his absolute shock when his moves no longer get him where he wants to go. I love that he meets his match and we get a front row seat to his epic fall for the beautiful Hunter. I mean the guy falls hook, line and sinker for her and it’s so heart stopping lay beautiful to watch.
Having a glimpse into Hunter throughout the Ex-Nihilo series I couldn’t wait for her to get her own HEA and boy did Charissa Gracyk not let us down!!!
She’s first and independent with a backbone of steel. I mean why wouldn’t Knox fall for her!!!! I love that whilst she’s wildly attracted to Knox she doesn’t give his suave, smooth ways a chance. She’s was such a strong character she deserves a man to fight to win her and Knox is definitely that man, well once he gets his head out of his backside he is!!
The chemistry and bond these two form is out of this world HOT and so mesmerising you won’t be able to tear your eyes away from your kindle. I had to read it twice just to make sure I’d soaked up all the goodness it had to offer.
This book is a full of action, depth and a maelstrom of emotions that will leave you breathless.
Congratulations Charissa Gracyk. Yet another first rate read. Can’t wait for more!!!
If you can’t already tell I highly recommend this read!!!
So many stars it’s impossible to count!!!

Falling in love with this crew of Thief’s already. The characters are fantastic and so is their history. When the heist turned into more they stick together.
Loved the epilogue and I can’t wait for the next book in this series!

Oh my gosh-I am already in love with this new series and its new crew! To Love a Thief is everything I had hoped it would be. It’s a fantastic, steamy love story with the excitement and danger I’ve come to expect when picking up a book by Ms. Gracyk. And as always, it’s such a wonderful adventure!
We met Hunter “Pyro” in the Force Protection Delta series. She’s a former fighter pilot and a beautiful bad@ss who is flying into Columbia to save a thief from a sticky situation.
Knox “The Charmer” needs a way out of Columbia after a job goes wrong. He sets his sights on Hunter from the start, but he’s finally met his match-the one woman who is immune to his charm. He’s gorgeous, funny and debonair, and he’s absolutely floored that Hunter doesn’t immediately succumb to his charms.
What starts out as a quick in-and-out rescue turns into a thrilling mission to recover and return a stolen emerald, and a race against time to save one of their own.
This new team of “thieves” is fantastic! I can’t wait to get to know each member better and experience the adventures to come! Well done, Ms. Gracyk!

Charissa Gracyk clearly has a winner with this first book in her new series. Knox and his band of thieves are a lot of fun, and they are better than I expected. They are a unique found family that embraces living on the edge.
Knox has gotten by on his good looks, charm, and powers of persuasion. That is until he meets Hunter. She is immune to every line and look he throws her way. Things get good between them as he reveals the real Knox. He falls hard and fast!
Knox is not the typical MMC that I’m drawn to, but he has some surprising traits that make him absolutely appealing. He prefers women with quiet confidence over flashy women. Hearing his backstory makes you see him as more than who he is on the surface.
It was nice to finally learn about Hunter. We’ve only known her through the Force Protection Delta team. The confident, self-assured pilot woman is iffy about love. She’s happy with her life, but seeing others get their HEA has her wondering if there’s someone that she can trust. Can Knox be that person?
The action scenes are fast-paced and ramp up the emotions. The best part is the shift that occurs between Knox and Hunter as they grow individually and as a couple. What starts out as a mind-blowing, one-night thing becomes so much more as they admit their feelings.
Gracyk is known for the military background and alpha males she typically writes. She’s giving us something a little different with this book, and I’m eager to see where she’s going to take this new group of characters. I know it’s going to be great, and I think she has some surprises in store along the way.

Fantastic book to start off thr newest series by Charissa!
Hunter thought this was just a regular job. Fly in, grab her passenger and fly out. What she wasn't expecting was a rescue mission when her passenger gets himself in hot water. She also wasn't expecting the crazy attraction to hit her as hard at it did.
Knox is a charmer, he's used to women falling at his feet with just a smile in their direction. Hunter, however seems immune to it and it throws him for a loop. So does the insane attraction he feels towards her.
This book is a page turner, can't put it down, edge of your seat read that had my heart pounding hard in my chest. Especially during the helicopter scene.
If you're looking for a book with action, thrills and a swoon worthy MMC, grab this book.

To love a thief by Charissa Gracyk is the first installment in a brand new series and I loved it!
I read it in one sitting because I just couldn’t put it down!
It has everything you want in a romantic suspense!
Suspenseful and hot romance!
I loved the banter between Hunter and Knox! I had to get used to the first pov writing but that’s just me, I prefer third pov.
But after reading the first chapter I got used to it. Still not a fan of first pov but absolutely a big fan of Charissa Gracyk !
Looking forward to read the next book in the series!
I received this arc from the author and this review is my honest opinion

Very self-assured Knox " The Charmer"got himself into a bind in a foreign country. Flying to the rescue is Hunter "Pyro". Literally. No women has ever aaid the word No to him. And he falls so hard for Hunter, he's lost. She is scared of her heart being vroken again. They livecone adventure after the other. After a near death experience they both decided to give love a chance.
BONUS
In this bonus scene the Charmer, decided to make it permanent. He's a very cocky self assured man. You cant help to love him. Enjoy. It gets my 5 stars and recommendation

Honestly, I couldn't figure out how you could outdo the Ex Nihlio series. Well, I didn't need to wait very long. Hunter and Knox were fantastic together. The storyline flows so smoothly, and the added intrigue is perfectly done. The banter between the two was great, and to watch them both fall in love was perfectly done. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. I was even more surprised to see that you loved Sidney Sheldon since he was where I got my start, too. Great job, as always. I'm really looking forward to the next adventure!! Definitely five stars!!

Charissa Gracyk has done it again!
I absolutely loved the slow burn between Hunter and Knox. The tension between them is deliciously frustrating in the best way—so much chemistry, so many questions. Will Hunter give in to her desire? Can she let herself love and feel again? And will Knox and the crew recover the emerald before it’s too late?
This book is packed with adrenaline, heat, and emotional push-and-pull. A can’t-put-down, spicy romantic suspense that will keep you flipping pages late into the night. If you’re into high-stakes romance with heart and edge—you won’t be disappointed.

Eek! A new series with Hunter from she finally meets her match when she’s on asked to pickup Knox Bennet who kept the heat on himself while his team got to safety after stealing an enormous emerald with the intent to return it to it’s rightful owner. Knox has never met a woman he couldn’t have after turning on his charm. Until Hunter that is. Now he’s determined to have her as he falls hard and fast. There is lots of action, suspense and hot hot scenes. I’m really looking forward to reading this series.

Knox Beckett is a thief.
Hunter is a pilot.
Addison is known as the boss of the group.
Hunter is asked to go in an help Knox in and out job which turns out her rescuing Knox.
There is chemistry and attraction between them (but Knox is used to women falling at his feet but Hunter is different but doesn’t ). This group has done several jobs without a hitch until the last two, where things go FUBAR over
A precious gem.
Can the crew resolve the issue so Knox and Hunter have a Happily Ever After?
This book has suspense, danger, excitement, and action packed.
Great Job. Charissa Gracyk !!!!

This thief will steal your heart!
I loved seeing the cool, calm, and collected Hunter loose her cool with this charming thief. As usual, our favorite pilot (from the Force Protection Delta series) needs to save the day or a thief as it may be. He ruffles her feathers, but the chemistry is instant, and she has a hard time resisting his charms.
Get ready for an adventure! I had a hard time putting this book down.
This is the start of a new series with some familiar faces popping in to save the day. I look forward to getting to know this new team!

I stayed up way too late to finish this book. It was that good. I love how the characters in this series show up in other series of books written by Charissa. This was a quick paced book but sucks you into the storyline. I loved seeing and learning more about Hunter and how Knox is able to break down her walls. I think a lot of readers will recognize themselves in Hunter. Great read and I cannot wait for book #2.
June 8, 2025
Another action-packed love story from Charissa! I’m excited about this new series but I also love how the author weaves in characters and events from her previous books. I love these little check-ins! I’m already loving this new cast of characters and look forward to seeing how each one meets their match! The banter, the passion, and the adventure will keep you coming back for more!

Get your beach bag out because you’re in for an action packed ride!
Hunter, a pilot, flies to Columbia to pick up Knox up from a job gone wrong. From the moment Knox sees Hunter he’s locked in…but Hunter isn’t falling for his charm and Knox doesn’t know what to do with that. lol. The mission changes into a thrilling adventure and you won’t be able to put this down!

The charmer and his sparrow
Mr Charm himself found the one person who hates it, and it just so happens to be the person he wants the most. Great intro to the new crew, getting to know these new characters whilst closing out Hunters story. Filled with adventure, thieving, action, heat and whirlwind romance. Another Charissa Gracyk goldmine or should I say emerald?

Hunter and Knox cannot deny their attraction to the other. Hunter is a straight-laced pilot who's been burned before, and Knox is the charming “Playboy” hiding a not so luxurious past. Knox needs Hunter's help to get out of a bind and can't help falling for the beguiling woman, but she has no interest in falling for his swagger. Luckily, they have to spend more time together, and Hunter finds the heart of gold under the charm, and Knox is able to steal into her heart. The story is fast paced, the writing is on point, and the spice is fire. Enjoy!

What a way to start a series! This is only book one, and I’m already hooked!
We first were introduced to Hunter in Gracyk’s Force Protection Delta series. (Which I loved, BTW.) She was the bad@$$ pilot who’d swoop in to help out the team. Well, now she finds herself helping out a different team… one that’s made up of thieves. But she discovers they aren’t quite what she expected.
Enter Knox: the handsome, smooth charmer who’s never had his looks fail him, until he meets Hunter. Turns out, it takes more than just a pretty face to win her over, but he’s definitely up for the challenge.
I fell in love with him from the start. Yes, he’s confident and way too cocky for his own good, but he’s also caring, driven, and incredibly entertaining. His inner thoughts made me giggle on more than one occasion. Their chemistry is off the charts, and I love that he falls first!
The story is strong and well written, the characters endearing, and the action is nonstop. What more could you ask for?

I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of To Love a Thief, and I'm so glad I did—what a fun, fast-paced ride! This is book one in a brand-new series by Charissa Gracyk, and if this installment is any indication, readers are in for a treat.
If you enjoy insta-lust that quickly builds into something more profound, this one’s definitely for you. The chemistry between the characters is immediate and electric, pulling you in from the first few pages. Gracyk does a great job balancing heat with heart, and I found myself rooting for the romance to evolve beyond initial sparks.
Fans of her other books will especially love the subtle crossover moments—seeing familiar characters pop up in new ways adds an extra layer of excitement. It's a fun nod to longtime readers without detracting from the fresh story.
Overall, To Love a Thief is a quick, entertaining read that delivers on swoon-worthy romance and keeps the pages turning. I'm already looking forward to seeing where this new series goes next!

Another great start to a new series! I love meeting new characters and diving into new mysteries that I know this author will give us.
Hunter “Pyro” is the pilot from the Force Protection series who rescued them more than once throughout the series. She’s a bada$$ pilot and a strong, independent woman. When she receives a call to help a band of thieves, she flies to Colombia to rescue Knox, who is stranded after a job goes wrong.
Knox is a handsome charmer who has never been told no by a woman. Hunter wants no part of him, which he considers a challenge. When things continue to go wrong, Hunter is drawn further into the Knox’s world.
There is all the mystery, danger, and intrigue that we’ve grown to expect from Charissa Gracyk. Character development is excellent, and the story is well written, as usual. We are introduced to the rest of the Ring of Thieves, including Addie, who is Ryland’s “Rip” sister from book one of the Delta Force Protection series. This promises to be another great series, and I’m here for it!

This, the first in Ms. Gracyk’s new series, brings back Hunter (from Force Protection Delta series) as a familiar character in a new team – of thieves!
Told in the same easy to read style as previous books, this has all the action we’ve come to know and love from this author. The story centers around stealing back a priceless emerald to return it to its rightful owner, getting it back is not as straight forward as the new team initially thought.
On top of the action, we get a red hot romance between Hunter and Knox. Reluctant to trust “The Charmer” and his flirty lines, Hunter cannot deny the attraction. For Knox, Hunter bowls him over, ready to put his single days behind him if only he can get her to give him a shot.
A relatively short read, it moves along at a cracking pace. Never a dull moment, and some familiar faces, in this very enjoyable read.

Having loved Hunter in the Force Protection Delta series, I couldn’t wait for her to get her HEA. She definitely wasn’t expecting it to be with a charming thief, though! Knox is the kind of cocky hero I love. A charmer when he needs to be but kind, loyal, and so much deeper than the surface level lines he can throw out. Hunter doesn’t want to trust him because she’s had her heart crushed before, but he wears her down and they both get their hard-fought happy ending. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Charissa Gracyk book if there wasn’t plenty of action and steam in between that first meeting and the eventual fall ;) This one is a page turner you won’t want to put down, so strap in and enjoy the wild ride!
June 13, 2025
To Love a Thief will steal your breath, your soul and your heart! Knox and Hunter are opposites except for their attraction to each other. The story is full of humor, steam and action that Gracyk brings to life with images in the readers mind of an action hero movie with steamy romance. Perfectly balanced with human emotions and summer blockbuster adventure, To Love a Thief is a great start to a new series. Cameo appearances from the Slater Security series tie her worlds into a neat bow, while giving a glimpse into the other characters lives now.

Book one of Ring of Thieves by Charissa Gracyk.
Another great series starter by Charissa Gracyk! This has much action and adventure in it that it was impossible for me to put it down.
Hunter and Knox, wow watching these two will have you turning the pages faster than you would think possible.
The chemistry between these two is epic and to watch them navigate around their feelings and to see that it hopeless because love is there and Knox is ready for it but Hunter isn’t so sure she can open her heart again. Of course, Knox has a hold of her heart and doesn’t plan on giving it back!
I can’t wait to see what comes next in this series! Incredible job Charissa Gracyk!
Another great series starter by Charissa Gracyk! This has much action and adventure in it that it was impossible for me to put it down.
Hunter and Knox, wow watching these two will have you turning the pages faster than you would think possible.

I loved Knox and Hunter. At first Knox being so arrogant was annoying but once he settled down and discovered Hunter it was a true romance.
Pilot Hunter McGrath is called in to pick up thief Knox Remington Becket when a mission goes wrong.
These two were full of small from the very start. Definitely attraction there on both sides but Hunter wasnt making it easy for for Knox at all. But that chemistry was what got them through.
A fast paced, adventurous story that was beautiful written and pulled me in. I do like this author's writing and it was an easy read book. Very well done!!

The romancer and his lover
Knox has used his charm and good looks to distract and beguile targets as part of his group of Robin Hood like thief friends, but when Hunter is sent in to pick him up from their latest job, he falls hard for the reluctant object of his affections
Some straight talking sets out how Hunter feels about Knox and his profession but when they end up working together they each see an entirely different side to the story and despite hunters reluctance, Knox works hard to turn her opinion round and convince her she is his future
Romantic, hilarious at times and exciting, a most enjoyable book

Knox hides his emotional inadequacies behind a Casanova playboy mask. However, when he meets Hunter he meets his match. Hunter his opposite is closed off and reserved. Then she gets roped in to work with this morally grey group.
It was good to get Hunter’s story. I always wanted more of her when reading the Force Protection Delta series. This first book in the new Ring of Thieves series is off to a good start. There is loads of action, twists an turns. Along with a good look at the characters that will obviously be staring in the books to come.
I received a review reader’s copy of the book, and I am leaving this review voluntarily

This is the start of a new series for Charissa Gracyk and it is awesome. Every time I start one of Charissa's books I feel like an action adventure movie is playing in my mind. This book is no exception. The story is face paced and right from the first page I couldn't wait to see what happens next. If you are new to Charissa's books; this is a great place to start because it is the beginning of her new series Ring of Thieves. We are introduced to new characters as well as revisiting some that we have met before. I recommend this book. ENJOY!

This was a fun beginning to this spin-off series from the Force Protection Delta series. Yay, Hunter the tough pilot is getting HEA! And we are getting to know Ryder's (from Force Protection Delta) infamous sister, who is a professional thief. Needless to say, we caught up with Hunter as she met the handsome Hunter (who is more than a pretty face). Excitement, suspense, and oodles of romance come next for a fantastic kick-off from Charissa Gracyk. Quick pacing, fun dialogue, and surprises await you.

I knew I would love these thieves and I was absolutely right!!! I just couldn't stop, one more chapter became another, then another. I went from being on the edge of my seat, to sinking back into my comfy chair and unfurling my fingers from their grip on my blanket, only to end up right back on the edge again, and again. And that bit of cinema-like action adventure romance perfection is what this author always delivers on!!
I could go on and on, but the next thief is calling my name and it would be rude to keep him waiting ;)
