The Prize

The ICON Trilogy #3

by Vanessa Fewings

A life she never imagined...and a love she can’t deny

Zara Leighton has risked everything to track down the elusive art thief known as Icon, only to discover him already in her arms: the billionaire tech genius—and her lover—Tobias Wilder. Zara wants to resist Tobias, to deny his fiercely sexy smile and their sizzling chemistry. But instead, she agrees to help him one more time.

Tobias will do anything to protect Zara, but he needs her for one last ultimate job: a job that will clear both their names and grant them a future together... if they can pull it off.

The danger is real. The stakes are unbelievably high. But when it comes to love, there’s only one prize that matters...

[SueBee★bring me an alpha!★ · Rating 4 out of 5]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! The Prize, book 3 of 3. A whirlwind secret affair & high-stakes game of stolen treasures, seduction, greed, illusions, secrets & corruption!

“He smiled as he leaned in, tugging aside my panties to suckle my clit. “I’ll be thirsty for you for the rest of my life…”

Books in The ICON trilogy should be read in order:
Book 1: The Chase
Book 2: The Game
Book 3: The Prize

In The Chase, book 1-2 recent college graduate and art forensic investigator Zara Elizabeth Leighton was pulled into a secret affair with a client, renowned art collector, inventor and heir to a fortune, the aloof and mercurial Tobias William Wilder, Toby aka Wilder. All while a sophisticated art thief, Icon wreaked havoc on the art world casting suspicions on everyone.

The Prize, book 3 is the explosive conclusion to Wilder and Zara’s secret undefined on-again-off-again whirlwind affair. With the world trying to discover the identity and bring Icon to justice, they find themselves the target of both investigators and villains in a menacing and ambiguous game of excess, betrayal, greed, vengeance and redemption.



Seven words to describe Tobias William Wilder, Toby: Enigmatic, possessive, aloof, mysterious, commanding, charismatic and unpredictable.



Seven words to describe Zara Elizabeth Leighton: Smart, reflective, curious, stubborn, impulsive, perceptive and strong.

The Prize, told from Zara’s POV, centers around stolen treasures, treacherous illusions, leveraged secrets and buried truths. There is mystery, suspense, seduction, danger, greed, betrayal, intrigue, corruption and pretty much a race across the globe. It ends with truth, forgiveness, revenge, but with a lingering lack of trust from Zara making me wish for an extended epilogue further into their future.

“If the meaning of life had a taste you would be it.”

I received an eARC from the author in exchange for an honest review.

5 High-Stakes Stars!
Intriguing, provocative and powerfully addictive...

The Review:
Vanessa Fewings has done it again! I never get tired of reading one of her novels. Since the harrowing cliffhanger from the second book, I’ve been faithfully waiting to get my hands on the thrilling conclusion to this fabulous trilogy. An all around amazing read, The Prize was definitely a win!

Intriguing, provocative and powerfully addictive, this climatic end is chock-full of suspense, adventure and sexy good times! Once I started this one, I couldn’t walk away!

Story/Characters...
This book picks up right where the the end of the second book, The Game, left off. Zara Leighton’s world has just turned inside out. For her, she has done the unimaginable, running down a path totally foreign to her.

Tobias and Zara have fled LA on Tobias’s private jet, suspicion surrounding them as being the famed ICON thief who’s been stealing art around the globe. Zara’s career and life are threatened and she doesn’t know if she can trust Tobias, a man she suspects is the real ICON and a man she’s fallen in love with.

“Never had a love affair been so forbidden.” - Zara

Tobias Wilder is dangerously alluring. He’s a sexy gadget man, inventor extraordinaire, possible art thief and a complete mystery. His wealth and charm make him the complete package and you can’t help but be smitten with all that is him! And he has a plan. He claims to want to help Zara get her life back. He claims he cares deeply for her and he claims she has opened his eyes to possibilities.

But Zara has trouble trusting and after everything she thinks she knows, she’s not sure if she can trust Tobias’s daring plan to save them both. She has to decide if when the dust settles, will she be able to live with the risks she has to take to get her life back and justice served, or does betrayal sit firmly in her future.

You want to believe it will all work out in the end, but like Zara, you’re constantly wondering about the lies, the secrets and the truths. Zara’s trust is held captive and the enemy is hot on their trail. But you just never know what’s going to happen. Is Tobias a good guy righting the wrongs of their enemy? Will they find their way past the secrets? Will the enemy win? Can they both trust? Is there more going on that you don’t know? And that’s the best part! You just don’t know ... and I LOVED that! I loved that throughout the whole story, you couldn’t help but wonder at everyones intent and ultimate goal. Zara’s uncertainty adds so much intensity to each chapter. Will Tobias betray her or will he be the promise she wants him to be. You’ll just have to read to find out! Too many times I can tell where a story is headed. I know too soon how it’s going to end. But not this one. The suspense was well played and the pacing was perfect!

And we HAVE to talk about their scorching chemistry! The heat between these two is swoon-worthy. Tobias knows how to woo his woman and the author expertly amps up the sexiness! *fans self* Tobias is a man of principles, heroic and ingenious with an inventive flare. He's also sexy, passionate and multi dimensional. The man is fascinating. This author always writes such intelligent, brave, layered characters. And steamy!! Oh my, can she write a sex scene like no other! Tobias and Zara's chemistry sizzle and the intense sexual burn gave me all the feels!

The Wrap Up:
The Prize is a fast paced, adventure packed, seductive story, wrapped around secrets, mistrust, mystery and intrigue as Zara tries to figure out Tobias’s end game. Vanessa Fewings always crafts the best tales filled to the brim with tension, sexual desire, shocking outcomes and they always, always leave me wanting more and filled with delight. This is just that kind of read. One daring event after another with two characters I absolutely loved. I was mesmerized.

[Bookgasms Book Blog · Rating 4 out of 5]

After that ending in book two (The Game) I was insanely hooked on this series and could not wait to jump back into Tobias and Zara's love story. The passion, suspense, mystery, pure adrenaline rush and the magic of the art itself made The Prize an amazing conclusion to Tobias and Zara's story. I never wanted it to end! 

After that shocking ending in the second book, Zara and Tobias are now on the run as Zara is now implicated in the ICON scandle and under investigation. But now with authorities hot on their trail they must do what they must to clear their names, avoid the enemy and pull off one last job to ensure they have a future. But can Zara reconcile her feelings for the man she loves with his enigmatic and elusive alterego Icon?

Like the prior two books in the series, I was completely lost in Zara and Tobias' love story. It was exhilarating and heart pounding and I was addicted to the cat and mouse game of eluding their pursuers and their quest for justice against their enemies. But I found myself not fully engaged with the story due to Zara's ambivalent and fluctuating feelings. Her self righteous attitude (at times) and constant suspicions of Tobias' intentions were diconcerting and distracting preventing me from fully believing her depth of feelings for him. While I understood her need to "take her power back" given her current situation, I did not feel it should have been at the expense of her relationship and her feelings for Tobias. So that back and forth and push and pull prevented me from really feeling engaged with the story as I have in the prior two books. 

Overall, I loved this series and every globetrotting adventure Zara and Tobias took us on. It was incredible to have a front row to their story while being surrounded  by history's most famous works of art. Furthermore, we were able to see the power of love transform her two main characters: Zara, who was once always careful and reserved is now open to a world of adventure and Tobias, a man who never opened himself up to emotions, would now sacrifice anything and everything for the world's ultimate prize: his Zara. This was fantastic! Bravo! 4 stars! ~Ratula

[The Book Junkie Reads . . . · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm just saying. . . If you have not read books 1 and 2, then I highly recommend/suggest/encourage you to read them first and then flow seamlessly in to The Prize. The series was breathtaking as whole and with each new addition you find the romance, suspense, mystery, and intrigue all building you up for something more. We start first with The Chase where Zara finds that Tobias was more of a challenge than she thought. She learns fast that he was the one man she should stay away from but there was just something about him that kept her coming back. Then we move on to The Game where things have heated up between Zara and Tobias. The stakes here are clearly high and the hunt for a treasure adds an additional layer because hearts get laid bare and the savage world of money, influence, greed, illusions, corruption, lies/deceit, secrets make all events more.

Now, we finally come to the ultimate wrap-up. Zara much make some tough decisions. She must decide first how do she love Tobias. She must decide what she will do with the information that she has. She must decide if any of the previous is worth throwing love away. She must decide if she will do what it takes to have and hold love. Tobias already knows that he will do whatever it takes to keep his Zara safe. Now, she must decide if it is all worth the risk. There will be danger, intensity, drama, suspense, and must certainly the off the chart passion and chemistry that both Zara and Tobias shares.

I will give nothing away. I will tell you that this was worth the anticipation that went in to waiting for the last installment of the trilogy. I find that I want to tell everyone and anyone that you will need to read them all to get the full impact and catch all the nuisance of this sexy, wicked, intriguing romance filled with suspense, and more. The Prize was the name of the book, well it was a prize to find all that I did inside the pages of this final step in this trilogy.

The ICON Trilogy:
The Chase
The Game
The Prize

[Laura · Rating 4 out of 5]

***ARC Provided by the Author and Publisher via NetGalley***

With this book, the Icon trilogy is complete. By the end, you know all of the secrets Tobias has been keeping (well, most of them, I think it's safe to say he still has a few) and you know how Zara is gong to handle the things she discovers and the ways in which those discoveries change her world.

How do I review this without spoilers?

At this point, Zara and Tobias are in deep in the missing art, art theft and heist world...and telling you the things you discover in this book, even though you really suspect a lot of it at this point, is a spoiler.

I hate spoilers.

So, what can I say? This book has drama, drones, man-cave dungeons, danger and an ending that delivers exactly what you want from the books.

It's not a standalone, so if you are starting at this book, go back to the beginning, you need to see where it all starts to really appreciate where it all ends up.

[Shades of Rebecca · Rating 5 out of 5]

It's been a while since Tobias Wilder absolutely stole my heart with The Chase. In The Chase, we got to see Zara and Tobias developing what would turn out to be a world-shaking romance. In The Game we saw Zara chasing Tobias as well as chasing her family's heritage. In The Prize, we get to see them in totally new environment.

Vanessa uncovers quite a lot of Tobias privacy and I can assure anyone and everyone - you'll just love it. In the previous books we got to see him as a billionaire and entrepreneur, but I truly enjoyed the direction Vanessa took him in this one. For me, Tobias is like the perfect combination of characteristics that make up the ideal man. He is adventurous, thoughtful and caring and in The Prize all of these are brought to the surface and intensified.

I often felt bad for Zara. Torn in a two very different directions that will never cross, she is standing before a decision. Being loyal to her work, to people she loves and to her family has put her in an difficult position. Throughout the book it was very fascinating to see Vanessa developing this character and kind of broadening Zara's horizon.

This book is action packed! There's a lot of suspense - some lines will have you double (or triple) reading them to make sure you are reading correctly. It's very intense. In regards of Zara and Tobias, I feel like we got to see them and know their relationship in more of an intimate way. As I said, the setting is new and will set the grounds for a very captivating scenes.

What can I say, I absolutely love this book and this whole series in general. I sure will miss these characters! Go pre-order it asap if you haven't yet!

[Take Me Away To A Great Read · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good ending to the series. I wanted more stability in the relationship by the end and felt some things were repetitive but loved this series, the couple and adventure it took us on!

[Brigitte · Rating 5 out of 5]

This finale has definitely been worth the wait. A prize in itself! It nicely picks up from where it left off in the previous book. The Icon Trilogy comes to a sublime finish in The Prize.

Tobias and Zara are now on a new quest. To do so, they have to put some of the past occurrences behind them. Even though Zara is eager to achieve this goal, she remains full of doubts whereas Tobias is his cool and collected self, confident of his plans.

With their new discovery which is part of Zara's past and her future aspirations, she teams up with Tobias and in the process, gains confidence in herself. She is no longer the wallflower, but a courageous and protective woman instead. Her only problem is her constant internal debates. Trust doesn't come easy to her.

Tobias will do anything for her. Even putting his own life and reputation on the line. He is one of the most enigmatic and magnetic characters that I have ever come across. One can't help, but love him. His achievements, both in science and in art are beyond belief.

The relationship between Tobias and Zara is passionate and sizzling hot. The depth of their love is unrivalled. There are times when their relationship is threatened by the unscrupulous Burrell family. They play a dangerous game where their lives are in danger, but the way they support each other sets the heart thumping. In these situations, they put each other's welfare and safety above their own. Despite Zara's doubts and mistrust, she sticks by her man, but there is a bit of a scare towards the end. Surely not. Not now. Will she overcome these shortcomings and give Tobias a chance to have their happily ever after?

This book starts off slowly and gradually builds up to a climatic zenith. The suspense throughout kept me at the edge of my seat. Their selfless love and sexual chemistry are enthralling. It's both compulsive and addictive. Loved it.

[Ariadna Basulto · Rating 5 out of 5]

Add this book to the list of amazing winners by Vanessa Fewings. She never disappoints with her special brand of provocative, intriguing, and captivating stories.

The Prize begins right where The Game left off. With everything she holds dear on the line, Zara is on the run with Tobias. Despite Tobias’ claims that he wants to help Zara because he cares for her and wants to help her get her life back, she’s unsure if she can trust the person she suspects is real ICON thief. So does she trust his plan to save them both or will she have to find a way to save herself and possibly betray Tobias?

First of all let me just say how much I loved Tobias. The man is sexy, charming as fudge, and smart. And smart equals super freaking sexy. Speaking of sexy, can we talk about the chemistry between these two? Wow. I believe the word I’m looking for is scorching. Between the fast paced action and the searing connection between the two MCs, I found myself devouring each page as fast as I could.

The Prize is a fast paced, action packed, and utterly seductive read wrapped up in a deliciously captivating mystery. It’s Vanessa Fewings at her best. 5 Stars.

[April · Rating 5 out of 5]

The third and final book in this series was incredible. Vanessa Fewings delivered in the ICON trilogy just as she did in her other series! The story of Zara and Tobias and their adventures through the art world come to the end in this book. Zara must decide between her morals and the love of her life. Tobias will do anything to protect Zara but with her knowledge and skills he needs her. Tobias is like a modern day Robin Hood and Zara doesn’t know which way to go. Should follow his morals or her own. Could they get away with it all and still be together? This was an amazing book with vivid descriptions of the art work and travels they went on. You felt as though you were there with them the entire time. Extremely well written as with all Fewings books, she knows just how to bring you into her books and hold your attention and keep you flipping pages. I couldn’t stop reading. Perfect ending to a great suspenseful romance trilogy.

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is Book #3 in the ICON triology. I have read Book #1 (The Chase) and Book #2 (The Game). Loved it a lot. There was a lot of passion, suspense, intrigue, and romance. I loved that Zara was a complete opposite of Tobias. Their chemistry was still combustible.

Finally the conclusion from the first 2 books. I do not want to say too much. If you are looking for a series that will keep you on the edge of your seat, you need to read the ICON trilogy.

The perfect conclusion to this series. I loved following Zara and Tobias into the art world. Their romance is a hot one and develops through the storyline. It's going to be interesting to see what this author comes up with next, and I can't wait.

[Sissy's Romance Book Review · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Prize by Vanessa Fewings is book Three in The ICON Trilogy.
I haven't yet read the previous books and I do feel that was a mistake. I felt I was missing some story but the author's writing was very good so I was able to figure out some of the past story line. But overall I don't feel this was a standalone book. I do hope to go back and read the previous stories since I enjoyed this one and would like to get the full pictures of what actually happened.

Awesome conclusion to this awesome series! I was hooked on the story from The Chase, the first book. There’s adventure, suspense and steamy scenes. I’m in love with Tobia and Zara, the chemistry between them is explosive. Vanessa Fewings is my favorite new author.

[bouquet_de lectures · Rating 5 out of 5]

http://www.voluptueusementvotre.fr/20...

Et voilà, c’est fini. Les derniers mots de la saga Sublimes vertiges ont été posés et quelle joie pour moi d’avoir pu parcourir ce grand final sous la plume toujours aussi envoûtante de Vanessa Fewings. J’attendais énormément de ce tome et rien n’aurait pu gâcher ma lecture. C’est donc en toute confiance que j’ai commencé ce livre et c’est avec un immense sourire que je le termine.

Je n’ai pas vu les heures défiler tant j’ai été prise par les rebondissements incessants de cet ouvrage. Outre la situation complexe dans laquelle nous avions laissé nos héros, je trouve qu’une fois encore l’auteure a accordé une attention toute particulière à ce couple réuni envers et contre tout. Pourtant, rien n’est simple, car les incertitudes sont plus présentes que jamais, mais le lien entre Zara et Tobias est indestructible et leurs sentiments si profonds qu’il est impossible de les imaginer l’un sans l’autre.

L’habileté est un roman qui m’a fait penser à un mélange de James Bond et d’Indiana Jones. Mêlant habilement art et science, Vanessa Fewings happe le lecteur par des rebondissements phénoménaux et des révélations-chocs. Vous pensiez qu’Icon n’avait plus de secret pour vous ? Alors, accrochez-vous, car il n’a pas fini de vous éblouir !

J’ai vraiment adoré les prouesses de la technologie au service de l’art. J’ai apprécié plus que jamais l’intelligence et la débrouillardise de Tobias et si je sais objectivement que la plupart des inventions citées ne sont pas réalistes, il n’en reste pas moins, que je me suis totalement prise au jeu, frissonnant d’anticipation, redoutant les affrontements à venir.

Car oui, il est question d’un adversaire de taille pour notre couple, d’un combat dangereux et de plan risqué. Ce livre marche à l’adrénaline et m’a emporté avec ce duo au cœur d’un périple que je n’aurais pas pu envisager. J’ai eu, à plusieurs reprises, l’impression de foncer dans la gueule du loup et de ne pas pouvoir en réchapper tant la tension est à son comble et l’issue finale bien incertaine. C’est là qu’entre en jeu tout le talent de l’auteure qui brille par sa réflexion pertinente et tout le travail qu’elle a fait en amont.

À nouveau séduite par l’épilogue qui clôt les aventures de Zara et Tobias, je suis triste de les quitter, mais tellement heureuse d’avoir pu découvrir cette histoire qui restera une de mes préférées tant la passion imprègne ses pages et tant l’amour est mis à l’honneur. Je ne peux que vous recommander chaudement cette série et espérer qu’elle vous accroche autant que ce fut le cas pour moi.

[books are love · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a fantasmic ending. Vanessa Fewings really put it all out there in this last of the series. She gave us art history entangled in the intrigue, suspense, danger and romance.

Fell more in love with Tobias as no matter what he never faltered in his belief and love in Zara. He stood by her even when she suspected and doubted him. He stuck his neck out and fell on his sword for her. Showed his love over and over again as the played cat and mouse with Eli and Elliott Burell.

We got both Tobias and Zara’s view. Tobias for me was the best. He was more honest and real. He never faltered in his feelings or support. He was confident and kind. I loved his playful side and his way he was in the Science museum. It was there that you saw who Tobias really was. How playful and real he was. He had a underlying belief and never wavered. He stuck by his morals and decisions and always tried to protect Zara.

Zara did drive me nuts at times with her doubt. She never truly trusted Tobias. Even with all he risked and did she still was wary of him and doubted him. Her heart was closed up tight and it wasn’t until she saw how much danger Tobias was in and all he risked but also that she may lose him did she finally come to terms with it all. She was a great character just very mistrusting and it took awhile for her to come to terms with all Tobias was and did. She had to see that sometimes Grey areas was needed to do good.

The story was alluring and dangerous. Sexy and intriguing. The writing lured you into the spider’s web and didn’t let you go. The romance was secondary to the chase and keeping the eye on the prize-the paintings and getting justice for all the horrible things the Burells have done.

The romance was steamy and vivacious as where the characters. I wasn’t disappointed with the chase, the suspense, romance and thrill of the unknown and danger that was before Zara and Tobias. Nor was I disappointed with how they faced it. A great ending to a awesome series.

[Sue Ouellet-Cofsky · Rating 5 out of 5]

The finale to this trilogy brings everything we have read in the last few books together beautifully and seamlessly (well as seamless is all the intrigue and suspense can be). To be torn between your love of art, your true life's calling and the man that you are falling for can be the most difficult thing to face, I would imagine. How does Zara reconcile her moral and ethical beliefs regarding art with what Tobias has in mind to finally put an end to the bad guys and get her family's heritage back in her arms. At times, you feel almost frustrated with Zara because she seems so conflicted and then does something small to show no conflict then back to heavily conflicted again. But that is what Vanessa Fewings is so darned good at. She puts YOU, the reader into the story, so much so that you can truly envision the beauty of your surroundings because her writing is so vivid and encompassing. She does her research and while there may be SOME liberties taken, she leaves you completely enthralled with the world she created. She perfectly weaves suspense, intrigue, technology and old world art to bring us a truly perfect ending to Zara and Tobias' story.

[Rhi · Rating 5 out of 5]

The third in Ms Fewings ICON trilogy brings a satisfying and electrifying conclusion to the series. You must read the previous two books in this series in order to read this one – but it is well worth it.

The Prize picks up directly after the end of the second book, The Game. Zara has fled with Tobias on his private plane, accusations of being the very art thief she was attempting to track echoing in her ears. With her job on the line and the suspicion that Icon is none other than her companion – and the man with whom she is falling in love – Zara struggles to balance her fears with the love she feels, and the danger she’s in.

The chemistry between Tobias and Zara is as hot as ever. I liked that things were not simply swept under the rug and that Zara had some serious decisions to make.

There is a lot of action as well as suspense. It can be difficult at times to keep all the plot points straight, but it leads to a terrific climax that is certainly satisfying.

All in all, The Prize is a fitting conclusion to Ms Fewings trilogy that will certainly thrill the reader.

In book two we were left hanging on the edge unsure of what the future held for Zara and Tobias - We did not have to wait long for our answers.
The Prize picks up right where we left off and as I finished The Prize my first thought was "WOW! What an epically wonderful adventure!"
Fewings has again presented her readers with a story of romance, intrigue, and suspense that not only captivates but enthralls its readers from the opening scene to the closing kiss
Zara and Tobias are vivid and detailed characters that come alive under Fewings hand - I have watched them battle with their personal demons and desires, felt my heart break for their losses and then rebuild with jubilation for every trial they conquered - I have been a part of their journey and what a wonderful journey it has been.
Tobias, for me, was even more real in this final installment of the trilogy as his secrets were exposed and his heart was laid open - no longer just the billionaire playboy but someone that I could definitely put on my "perfect book boyfriend" list
If you are looking for a love story that will stand the test of time - look no further than the ICON trilogy

I was honored to receive this ARC of The Prize for an honest review. I held off leaving a review until I read it twice as I'm just not ready to let go of the thrilling, epic love story/adventure of Tobias and Zara!! This is the last book of the ICON trilogy and it starts right off from the last book, and it doesn't disappoint....The danger has reached an epic high, with their enemies closing in, Can Zara trust Tobias enough to pull of the biggest heist ever? The chemistry they have for each other is off the charts, Sizzling!! But can their love for each other be enough? I highly recommend you find out and read the final conclusion for yourself...

[Natalie Commerford · Rating 5 out of 5]

The Prize is definitely my favourite book of the Icon Trilogy. I loved all three but really enjoyed the suspense of The Prize.
Even though Zara and Tobias are together there is still a feeling of uncertainty which creates great suspense in the book. You are never quite sure if Zara is going to reveal Icons identity to the authorities and that together with trying to get her paintings back makes for a suspenseful romance.
Loved all the gadgets that Tobias created especially Jade.
A good ending for a great series.

First, this has been my favorite book of the series, by far. The suspense, the moments that make you swoon, the way everything ties together... Couldn't ask for a better conclusion to Tobias and Zara's story.

What a wonderful ending to this breathtaking trilogy! Zara and Tobias have provided a thrilling, romantic and exotic journey through the intriguing and beautiful world of art and artists. The settings have been as sumptuous as Vanessa Fewings skill in bringing this world to rich life. Her love of art cascades through the pages.
This final installment is no less thrilling than the first two and incorporated a Bond/Q-like set of adventures which added to the sense of romantic fun. Add in the Blofeld figures of the Burrells, and the image is complete. Zara's doubts about Toby can send your head spinning at times, but her underlying decency, honesty and anxious nature make these understandable.
In the final analysis, this was a fabulous wind up to a trilogy which I will go back to read again, not just for the sexy times, but for the superb descriptions of paintings which I had to look up in order to truly feel part of the whole experience. Brilliant!
