Three sisters, three lovers, and one stolen diamond. The final chapter in the Sun Catcher Trilogy. Paris police detective Angelique Floret has a theory after a diamond dealer is shot in broad daylight. Fashion model Charlotte Duke is in Paris, and the connections are too many to ignore. With only one way to prove if she's right, Angelique must go undercover. But Charlie gives her so much more than she bargained for. Heartbroken Cate lands in Paris with Elizabeth, but Interpol Agent Marquez is closing in. Cate is convinced she wants rid of the Duke family forever, until Lexi sends her on a hunt for missing pieces. At the family home in Iowa, Cate discovers a part of Lexi that she never knew. For Lexi, Jericho, and Charlie, it all comes down to one night. Will their grand finale in London set things right, or will it all come crashing down?
Sure, I do other stuff but mostly I’m a writer. I get up early in the morning and work at my kitchen table with a steaming hot cup of tea. Sometimes I listen to brain.fm to help me focus. Sometimes I use a timer and write in sprints. Sometimes I don’t do any of that and listen to the chatter of the birds in my back yard while I dive into a scene. Whatever I do, I sit my ass in the chair every day and write. I have a wife. She’s the inspiration for all of my sexy heroines. She’s the crème de la crème. She’s my favorite love story. She’s my queen. I’m also a mother. I have a son that I adore more than anything in the world. He’s the best thing I ever did, by far, and his amazing sense of fun and adventure keeps me wanting to explore. I’m a musician. I used to play in a band. I’m a computer geek, I love cooking, tasting delicious craft beers and being outside. I love where I live, on the beautiful West Coast of Canada where it’s temperate in all sorts of ways. Giselle Fox is my pen name. Having a pen name puts a little separation between real life and fiction. And since my stories are always spicy, that separation is a good thing. Giselle is the creative part of me. She gets me out of bed every morning, she cracks the whip when I want to flake out on the couch and watch Netflix. She makes me pay attention to people and circumstances and ask questions so I can write. Having an alter ego is great. You should try it, if you haven’t already.
This trilogy feels like the Ocean’s 11 movies, with lesbian triplets as the all-talented thieves. It’s fun, entertaining, clever and sexy. What else could you ask for?
The 3rd book in this series and the weakest in my opinion. The 1st book centered on sister Lexi and the woman(Cate) she meets in Panama. The 2nd book tells the story of sister Jericho and her slow burn romance with Taylor. The 3rd, and final book in the series, gives much lesser time to sister number three, Charlie and her very rushed relationship with Angelique. The reason why Charlie's story is really just glossed over is because the author(Fox) is trying to mesh all three sisters and their significant others into the story in a grand finale. By doing this, I feel like Fox shortchanged Charlie and Angelique's story...especially Charlie. Out of all the MC's(and this includes the significant others!) in the three books, I actually know the least about Charlie.
The first half of this 3rd book was almost solely about Cate, who is actually the most annoying(to me anyway) of all the MC's. She's whiny and a bit ditzy. Frankly, whenever the story moved back over to Cate, I magically morphed into Evelyn Wood and sped read. I felt like Cate's part in this book added ZERO to the story line.
The second half of the book was much better, although Fox still insisted on adding too much of Cate's blathering. When the book focused on Angelique individually and then with Charlie, it was much better. Angelique was an intriguing and sexy character(the french accent...mmmm) and I wanted to know more about her life. The author hinted at her family who were obviously not accepting of her sexuality. But Fox did not delve further into Angelique's life, probably because she just did not have the book space as she was squeezing too many characters into the plot.
I have to mention that Fox really writes lovely intimate scenes between the romantic MC's in all three of her books. The description of their connection is just so raw and emotional...just GUH! Fox writes LOVE scenes, not SEX scenes. Don't get me wrong, both are fine with me! But there is just something so wonderfully awesome when an author can write a love scene that leaves me teary eyed and thick throated.
3.75 stars because the author tried to cram too much into this book which resulted in rushed character development. Rounding up to 4 stars because well I just like the way this author writes.:)
In this final installment we get several (minor) stories: 1 Charlie & Angelique 2 Cate & Lexi 3 Jericho & Taylor 4 The final job involving several secondary characters.
The problem for me was that the author tried to cram too much into this book. The only story line that felt remotely complete was that of Jericho & Taylor. Charlie & Angelique's story took the term insta-love to new heights. My head is still spinning how fast those two got together.
Cate & Lexi have a lot of betrayal and hurt feelings to deal with and I really didn't like their characters in the end because the author rushed their relationship development. Cate's waffling back and forth became downright annoying.
As if all of those relationships weren't enough the author also devoted a large part of the book to the ladies getting ready for their final job and all that comes into play when pulling off such a major con, including a bunch of bad guys and their villainous monologues.
The author tried to wrap all of the stories up with a nice little bow but the outcome of it all felt like I was reading a bunch of summaries to full length novels.
For better understanding, I recommend reading this series in order. Book one is following Lexi and Cate, book two follows Lexi’s sister Jericho, but also Lexi and Cate. In the third, we should get to know more about the third sister Charlie.
This book is more or less divided in one part about Charlie and her story, the other one follows Cate and Lexi with little of Jericho in between.
I’m a little indecisive what I should think about this book. There is the part which wanted more of the story about Charlie and Angelique. Because their tale is shorter than the ones about Lexi and Jericho. It feels too rushed. They were falling in love too fast and we didn’t get the whole story of Charlie and Angelique. I wanted to know more about them, about their history.
The other part was mostly about Cate, and this part has taken up too much space. It wasn’t really adding more to the story itself. I think the author wanted to pack part three (Charlie) and part four (end of the story) in one book instead of two books.
But apart from this, the story was exciting, there was some action, and these parts were really good and thrilling. I love the writing style of Giselle Fox. You always can feel the connections the main characters are feeling, the chemistry is there and the love scenes are hot and emotional.
Overall it is a very exciting series with great characters, some good action and thrilling parts and fantastic and romantic love.
My rating 4 stars. Only four stars because the author wanted to pack too much into one book.
Great series about triplet sisters, their double lives, and their loves. Definitely would suggest reading in order.
I really enjoyed the first two but Book Three fell slightly short for me. I imagine it’s impossibly difficult to pull multiple storylines as well three main characters into one cohesive ending and am in absolute awe of the author for bringing so many of the Duke stories together.
Still, the nucleus of this book seems like it was supposed to be Charlie who kept getting the buildup of being the most interesting sister. We met Jericho Duke in Book Two and Lexi was the star of Book One. Book Three should have been Charlie’s moment to shine and I kept waiting but it never came. When the big event happened at the end, I don’t think I cared as much as I should have because I hardly knew Charlie’s backstory and the book barely touched on her Paris love affair. I’m still up on the whole series and I see plenty of opportunity for more stories on the Dukes which I’m sure I’ll read. But let’s have more in-depth on Charlie please.
Dangerous, risky and sexy, in the last book of the Sun catcher series. I enjoyed til the first page and I dare you to read it. I love the characters, 3 beautiful triplets, smart, rich and daring. 3 different women who looked alike but so different and complex. The story is full of surprises, edgy and we'll written, a perfect balance coming from Giselle Fox pen. Bravo, bravissimo!!!
I am a huge fan of Giselle Fox’s writing and the Sun Catcher Books has become my all time favorite series. I loved how each sister got their happy ending. The plot to return the Sun Catcher was engaging and the storyline kept me on the edge of my seat. As per her other books, the writing is phenomenal. If you only read one series in your life this should be the one.
The conclusion of this whirlwind of a series finally gives us the heist of all heists that has created chaos, fear & jeopardizing the lives, freedom & futures of the Duke sisters and the women that have come to possess the triplets hearts & their love.
I really don't know what to think of this one. I do know that it wasn't as good as the first two before it. I do know that even though the author may have missed the mark a little, she is still a terrific writer and storyteller. For this one I think feelings may center upon which Duke sister you like the best. For those that preferred Cate and Lexi's story then you may love this book because it mainly centers around them. For those that liked Jericho and Taylor's story, you may like this too. For those that wanted to get to know Charlie better.....well.....you're screwed. She definitely got the short end of the stick in this series and that's unfortunate.
This third and final volume in the "Sun Catcher" trilogy takes us from Paris, to London, to Iowa, to Chicago, and to Panama as the Duke triplets try to correct a 25 year-old wrong while protecting themselves and the women they love. In Charlie's case, she's also trying to protect herself and her sisters from the brand new love of her life, Angelique, who is also a cop.
The pacing and plot twists are excellent, as are the many relationships in the story, romantic, platonic, and familial. Highly recommended!
This is a well written third book in the Sun Catcher series about a very talented set of triplets who are so much more than just beautiful women. They are hiding a dangerous secret, and the whole family seems to know something about what they are hiding from the women they love. The problem with secrets and relationships is a distrust with the potential to destroy, not only love but lives. The unusual twist in the series storylines was a welcome change. Add it to your must read list.
Three books for the price of one. Long, exciting if a bit choppy at times. There are three romances, a heist, cartoon villains and a cop chase to enjoy. The narrative diamond at the centre is Charlie’s racy, impulsive hook up with Angelique. It sparkles brighter than the wrap up of the Lexi/Cate (how did they become so maudlin?) and Jericho/Taylor storylines from books 1 and 2 as these are straightened out and neatened up into their respective versions of HEA.
What more to say, hmm....I've read all three of these, this is my favourite but they each are highly readable. The characters are well formed and likeable, the plot lines are fun, exciting and sometimes edge of the seat stuff. I'd like to see more from these characters as so much work went into each of their stories and there's scope to lead from this without compromising these books. Highly recommend the series
Wow! I really don't have the words to formulate what I really want to say about this trilogy. This was an absolutely amazing story of crime, passion, and true love. I read it like I was watching a movie. If only you could find 3 beautiful triplets that fit the description of Lexi, Jerico, and Charlie and put this to film.... OMG. I hate it came to an end but a wonderful end indeed. 😍
I just finished the whole series and loved all three books. I'm following you and don't know how I missed these stories, but even though I'm late to this series party I absolutely loved everything about it. There's lesbian romance times three, there's criminal intrigue but in a good way. There is so many accomplished lesbians in this story that it does my heart good to see such representation. I would love if the author would bring these characters back into the fold somehow years later.
I absolutely loved this last book in the series! I literally have been late coming back from meal breaks at work and even contemplated going into work late today just so I could finish the book. The Duke sisters were so interesting. I was sad when I read the final sentence.... even tearing up a bit. :-)
Wish there could be a book 4 , as they say the (show) story most go on. This book was as good as the first on in the series, well written and the Duke sisters get the job done.
This is a great series. I love Lexi, Jericho and Charlie. They are beautiful,nice and talented thieves. They all fell in love with beautiful women. The stories are well written with great love scenes and great endings.
Ms. Fox continues to be one of the best writers in the lesfic genre. I eagerly awaited the release of this book, and it did not disappoint. A new twist was added to the saga, and I hope that Ms. Fox continues with the Sun Catcher series.
The entire trilogy is a must-read! But this 3rd installment is by far my favorite. A story that has a little bit of everything in it. No spoilers here, you will just have to read it!! ;D
I stumbled upon the Sun Catcher series on Amazon. I've never read so many pages in such a short period of time. Fun story. Steamy romance scenes. I really enjoy reading books by Giselle Fox. Always worth it.
Loved how the sisters came together and happy for Charlie. I like how it included everyone from previous books to tell the whole story. Love always wins!
Another Giselle Fox outstanding book. Action, suspense and romance. This one concludes the story of the 3 sisters. It was a lot of fun. But is there going to be another one? What about Ana?
