Synopsis:
People say the youngest child has it easy, but nothing can be further from the truth. Unlike my two sisters, Violet and Lily, I’m never in the limelight. I just work my butt off for Fleur Cosmetics and get little to no thanks for it. I’ve been pushed too far one too many times, and I’m finally brave enough to do something about it.
Maybe my newfound courage has something to do with the amazing pink and white diamond necklace I wear to the party in Cannes. The instant those dazzling heirloom jewels touch my skin, they excite some deep, aching need inside. And when that guy—that totally gorgeous guy—locks eyes with me, I know this nice girl is going to be naughty.
For once it’s my turn. My turn to say no to my father, to outshine my sisters, to walk away from it all—straight into the arms of a mysterious stranger. But what if Caden is much more than I bargained for? Sure, he makes me feel sexy and free in a way I never have before, but there’s something else I can’t quite place—something dangerous. Maybe our “chance” meeting wasn’t so random. Maybe he was looking for me for a reason. Whatever his motive, there’s no going back now.
And maybe I don’t want to.
My Review:
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
3 Platypires for Stealing Rose by Monica Murphy.
I received a digital copy of this book from Netgalley for an honest review.
I have previously read "One Week Girlfriend" series by Monica Murphy and really enjoyed it. So I was really looking to reading Stealing Rose. I picked it up not realizing that this was book 2 in a series. Fortunately, "Stealing Rose" can be read as a stand alone. There were just a few references to the previous love story but it did not make a difference to this love story.
"Stealing Rose" is about Rose Fowler's a makeup heiress who is unhappy with her role in the family business. Rebelling against her role she embarks in a sex filled tryst with jewelry thief Caden.
The sex is pretty hot in this novel and really non-stop from the get go. Rose and Caden have great sexual chemistry. Even though I liked Caden I just couldn't relate to Rose. I guess I really didn't think her problems with her family were that serious. I did not feel bad for her at all. She a nice of enough character but just did not have a lot of depth.
Overall I did like the story and would recommend it for those looking for an erotic romance read.
