This book was not all that good, but I'll give it an extra star for a first time author. The best description of the book is it's a skeleton. It's a bare bones plot that has some merit, but outside of a few relationship conversations and a few sex scenes, it's bare bones.
The MC is a small time logistics guy for a small time criminal that was killed. Being the only employee that shows up as the former boss's funeral, he inherits the man's operation. Which is just a contracted employee that is almost a slave. The former boss horded information on other criminals, so the MC and his contracted employee decide to play a version of Robin Hood by stealing from other criminals.
There are 2 primary LIs in this book, the contracted woman and a second that joins around 40% of the way through the book. The MC puts no effort into getting either woman that is shown on screen. He's a nice guy, which is apparently better than catnip to a catgirl to these women. The sex scenes are fairly short, and the first one is a little disturbing because the contracted woman basically dares him to have sex with her to test his behavior. I felt nothing for either woman, because we don't see the MC really building the relationships much.
There are lots of time skips in this book. Time that the relationships develop during that we don't see. There are planning sessions we don't see. There are heists we don't see. It's a whole lot of "tell" and very little "show" outside of sex scenes and a few key dialogue points.
The book ends on a cliffhanger, and I don't see myself reading the next book unless I'm really bored.

Harem is forced, nothing about it seems authentic. The pacing is slow with lots of planning, but nothing is ever shown. Gives it a shallow feeling. The ending is pathetic, a surprise twist cliffhanger. The book was a the star till the last two pages.
