This book is A-MAZ-ING!!!! It's non-stop thieving, romancing, lying, deceiving, and lots more. It is also hilarious! So much goes on it takes your breath away or makes you burst out laughing, lots of twists and turns. I loved it, couldn't put it down.

This was kind of a disappointing read. With the promise of art thief Mackenzie setting his sights on a young lord's inheritance I was expecting sexy adventure and espionage sprinkled with some humor. What I got was a simple, somewhat unconventional courtship between a wanna-be art thief and a young pompus lord. The premise was promising, but it just didn't pan out for me. Besides some flirting I wouldn't even call this sexy. But what I disliked the most was how naive and clumsy the supposed art theif was. I feel like I would make a better theif.

I love the start, as a blurb is included in the beginning and noted their ages (I loved that).
A bit of a slow start until the two characters meet, an oh boy when they do... it's on. The blurb is spot on with Aiden being a brat but Mac also bits back.
Sarcasm is big in this which makes it hilarious to read.
included are twists, lol moments, heated discussions and more. A few time jumps in this to speed the story forward. Hmm I don't know what to think about the ending it was good but I was confused about Aidens actions compared to how it started out. I really loved their humour and sarcasm in this..

Mackenzie 33 is a thief.
Aiden 22 yrs and a brat..but he was being pressured to get married and have an heir or he'd disinherited by his rich father.

Dont know what to think!!!!!

Hmmm dont know what to say. It was not bad it was not great
Felt sorry for Mac he was played by Aiden but they ended up happy.
It worked. Interesting writing.
Maybe try it.

It's such a good read and I enjoyed their adventure together but some questions left unanswered. I think I need their story continued, bonus chapter will be good ^^

DNF 53% plodding narrative and nothing comedic that I’ve seen.

I was not expecting any of what happened in this book........except for the MCs falling fall each other.
It was a welcome surprise.

M/m caper book

This is a very different art caper book. The back an forth between the two main characters is incredibly fun to read. I really enjoyed this book.

Great story

This is a great story with alternating POVs of Aiden and MacKenzie. I love how the romance blooms. It’s a wonderful read.
