Synopsis
After years of working in the family business, Arcadia “Ace” Jones has become a renowned car thief.
Trained from a tender age, it’s the only life she’s ever known. Longing for a future that doesn’t hold
the promise of prison, she makes the decision to go straight and earn an honest living.
But the Marchetti Organisation won’t accept her retirement, forcing her to complete a job so big it’s
almost impossible. She’s on a tight deadline but an irritating biker dude keeps thwarting her
attempts to deliver.
Kelly Daniels likes to ti ionker with bikes and cars. He’s content with operating the car restoration
business he owns alongside his partners, until an annoying little thief manages to steal a Dodge
Charger right out from under his nose.
He gets pulled into her treacherous scheme and they form an unlikely bond. When it becomes a
race against the clock to pull off the heist of the century or end up behind bars, Ace and Kelly realise
they have more to lose than their freedom—each other.

Excerpt:
My breath catches. This was only supposed to be about wild sex with a hot, irresistible man. I
should have known. The moment he walked inside Fix I knew he was a paradox. A puzzle, one I
played with, slowly fitting all the broken pieces together until the whole picture now sits before me,
a picture so beautiful it steals my breath.
“Kelly.” He watches me, his face close to mine. “You were never meant to get involved. It’s not your
fight.”
He draws back like I’ve slapped him the face.
I fumble for his hand, grabbing it before he can withdraw any further. “It’s always been my fight. I
don’t have friends. I don’t have boyfriends. I don’t sleep around. I’ve always kept people at arms-
length because I don’t live a life where I can answer the kinds of questions they ask of me. Then you
came along and I thought maybe this once it would be nice, real fucking nice to pretend I could have
something beautiful for myself. Only you weren’t what I expected. You pissed me off. You made me
laugh and you made me ache, and you made me want you so damn much. You did all that and now I
can’t imagine how I lived a life without you in it. You give so much of yourself without even realising
it. Even now you’re taking my fight and making it your own, and I hate myself for being so selfish
and letting you.”
My Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wow! I never read a book like this before. The thief is pure adrenaline. What makes a romance a perfect read? A great storyline? You got it. Realistic characters? You got it. Suspense? You got it. A little drama. You got that too. Explosive chemistry. That it. Everything you want, The thief by Kate McCarthy get it all.
This story begins with a bombshell. And you will see the consequences little by little.But keep reading, cause you won't guess what happens next. This story has never a dull moment. It's never boring. It the perfect combination of speed, danger, angst and steam. It's a fast & fourious story. It involves great / breathtaking cars, a sexy thief, a real champion of stealing cars, luxury cars, and a bad boy. And all it takes to match them together is a... muffin;)
The story goes at full gas, is a continuous escalation of speed of dangerous, of lust, of feelings, of love. Love for the cars, love for a woman, love for a family.
Now, the characters. She's the star. The ace. Arcadia Jones is a GREAT heroine. What make her so irresistible? Her devotion, her intuition, her cleverness. Seriously she is more than a beautiful body. She's not the classic girl who keeps dreaming of her prince charming. She has her own mess, but her life is far from monotone. She plays with fire at full speed. Because she is forced to, but also because she is a damn Ace when it comes to " tam" a car. Seeing Ace in action, is the highlight of the story. She is my favorite female version of Paul Walker.( Which I love!)
But the Thief has a hero too;) Kelly's life started like a nightmare. He earn everything he gets all by himself. The family who should be his main support and source of love and respect is far from it. But he doesn't give up. And it proves his strength. But also his ambition. Because if you ask me to describe Kelly in a world, that word would be ambition. Life made him a steel and ice guy, loyal to his brothers and to his Harley.
Until that muffin;) shared with Ace.
Ace will fix him, will give him another chance to be loved, to have a family and to have someone who will always keep your back.
Together? Ace & Kelly? Just expect the unexpected. These two were born to be together. What they get from the first moment they met is above it all you can imagine. Is fire and passion, is a madly loving race.
And you have the privilege to live it too.
Just read and try to catch your breath.
