Stolen

Reformed cat burglar Clea Rice has witnessed enough crimes to put her on the straight and narrow. But little does she suspect that her search for justice will land her in the arms of wealthy English gentleman Jordan Tavistock. As their attraction grows, so does the danger. Now their biggest concern isn't whether a proper gentleman and a cat burglar can find happiness...it's whether they'll survive long enough to find out.

In tuxedo and bow tie, Jordan Tavistock was the unlikeliest burglar. But when a chum asked him to steal back some X–rated love letters from her ex–lover's estate, he had no choice but to oblige. He never expected to get caught... by another thief.

She was a wanted woman...

Despite her protests, Diana Lamb was too sleek to be anything but a cat burglar. In fact, Jordan was sure nothing about her was real ...from her name, to her hair, to her identity. Was she an innocent fortune hunter or an American hellion with a price on her head?

Their distrust of each other was only as strong as their desire. And Jordan began to fear that Diana was more than just a thief of hearts....
