The 2nd book in the series wasn't up to snuff for me, but this one redeemed the series. I was really happy to get a little mystery back in the plot along with Rick & Sam's romance. Quick, enjoyable read.

This was my least favorite of the series so far. I don't think it gives away much to say that Sam's father comes back from the dead and causes much strain between Rick and Sam. The tension between the two of them made sense and was in character, yet after two other books and the progress they have made, it felt like Sam was falling backward. Further she seemed to make stupid choices for the first 100 pages or so and it was frustrating.
The romance and romantic tension just didn't do it for me and the love scenes were scanty and not very steamy or significant. This book didn't really further the progression of their relationship or their love story at all. It felt like a place holder to me.
3.5 stars

Yep, the fun just keeps going! This is a seriously addictive series, begin at your own risk!
This time around Samantha and Rick find themselves in New York City. While at a Sotheby's auction, Sam stumbles upon a dead man - her own dad - in the shadows and undoubtably breathing! What follows is an unwanted, yet seriously thrilling, descent back into the criminal life as Sam is blackmailed into pulling off one more huge heist.
While their relationship is stretched to the limit in this installment, Rick is once again a large reason the we love these books. He does whatever it takes to keep his woman safe, happy and in one piece. Their relationship is the stuff dreams are made of (sigh!) It's absolute yummy, scrumptiousness set against the back-drop of a high-octane caper!

I love this series. Billionaires Prefer Blondes moves from Florida to NYC. Samantha is chin deep in a quandry - get back in the cat burglar game and save those close to her and go against her "ethics" or risk it all by not going along. Lots of excitement as usual.

From Publishers Weekly
Fans of contemporary romantic capers will eat up the third tale of retired cat burglar Samantha Jellicoe and her British billionaire boyfriend, Rick Addison (following Don't Look Down), who continue to steam up the windows of Rick's posh, Upper East Side New York City townhouse, where Sam has recently begun living. Between sexcapades, the odd couple find themselves in a sticky situation. While Rick wins a prized Hogarth painting at a Sotheby's auction, Samantha spies her father, Martin, "the grand master Jedi of cat burglars"who's meant to have been dead for three yearslurking in the shadows. Not quite coincidentally, the Hogarth disappears from Rick's townhouse shortly thereafter. When Sam finally catches up with Martin, he has a proposition for her: a piece of the biggest heist he's ever pulled. The only problem is that Martin's working for Interpol, the heist is a setup, and the crew's muscle, Veittsreig, won't take no for an answer. Protective, straight-arrow Rick, unable to keep her out of trouble, decides to tag along for the crime, getting an intimate look at Sam's impressive extralegal skills. Much heavy-breathing sex and suspense follows, making this a winning continuation of a funny, frisky series. (Nov.)

It's not easy dating a billionaire...Samantha Jellicoe has never met a security camera she couldn't disarm. And even though she's promised her billionaire lover, the irresistible Richard Addison, to walk the straight and narrow, she certainly can't help it when trouble finds her.
What should have been a quiet night at an auction house turns into something more unexpected when Sam spies her father--her dead father--very much alive and very interested in a painting Rick is after. Then the painting vanishes, Sam's arrested, and all hell breaks loose.
Now Sam has to track down the man who taught her everything she knows about breaking and entering. And when she finds him, will his proposal for a lucrative heist tempt her to the dark side, or does Rick have a few tricks to keep her on the right side of a jail cell?
