A novel by

 
 
The Elite Crimes Unit works behind the scenes of Interpol - and employs some of the world's most talented criminal minds. Because as everyone knows, it takes a thief to catch a thief - or to seduce one . . .

The old farmhouse in the French countryside is a refuge for former jewel thief Josephine Deveraux. Admittedly, there aren't many men in the vicinity, but she has her cat to cuddle up with. It's a far cry from her former life, constantly running from the law, and she's enjoying her peace . . . until the intruder in the three-piece suit tackles her. He wants her back in the game, helping with a heist - and he's not above making threats to get his way.

Little does Josephine know that notorious - and notoriously charming - thief, Xavier Lambert, is after the very same 180-carat prize she's being blackmailed to steal. To his chagrin, he's doing it not as a free agent, but as a member of the Elite Crimes Unit - the team he was forced to join when his brilliant career came to a sudden end. And little does Xavier know that his comeback is about to include a stranger's kiss, a stinging slap, and a hunt for missing treasure - along with the infuriatingly sexy woman who's outfoxing him . . .
