By Kelly Bridgewater
After a
childhood as a street thief, Gabriella Goodhue thought she'd put her past
behind her until a fellow resident at her boardinghouse is unjustly accused of
theft. In the middle of breaking into a safe that holds the proof to prove her
friend's innocence, Gabriella is interrupted by Nicholas Quinn, the man she
once considered her best friend—until he abandoned her.
After being taken under the wing of a professor who introduced him into society
and named him as heir, Nicholas is living far removed from his childhood life
of crime. As a favor to a friend, Nicholas agreed to help clear the name of an
innocent woman, never imagining he'd be reunited with the girl he thought lost
to him forever.
As Gabriella and Nicholas are thrown together into one intrigue after another,
their childhood affection grows into more, but their newfound feelings are
tested when truths about their past are revealed and danger follows their every
step.
My Thoughts:
Jen Turano. What can I say. She makes me laugh at her heroines or heroes in every story. I don't know how she does it, but I love reading her stories. I love how she centers majority of the them in New York city during the height of the rise of the Astors and the Vanderbilts populating the pages along her characters. With her latest story, To Steal a Heart, Turano jumps into women crime fighters. With being such a mystery lover, I couldn't wait to see how Turano was going to pull this off. Right from the beginning of the story, Turano puts her heroine and hero in an awkward situation that has be laughing and anxiously flipping the pages to see what hysterics Turano is going to throw her characters into. There is no other writer like Turano. She is a wonderful storyteller and a delightful writer. With each of her new cover reveals, I always can't wait to get my hand on that book. With To Steal a Heart, Turano stays true to her genre and personality. Can't wait to read more!
I received a complimentary copy of To Steal a Heart by Jen Turano from Bethany House Publishers, but the opinions stated are all my own.
My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
