âA fun and flirty story . . . I canât resist a good romance between a staid lawman and a cheeky, sly thief and Josh Lanyon delivers that and more.â âJoyfully Reviewed (Recommended Read) On the eve of the new millennium, diamond thief Noel Snow seduced FBI special agent Robert Cuffe, then fled into the dawn. Now a successful novelist, Noel uses his capers as fodder for his books, and has modeled his heroâs nemesis (and potential love interest) on Cuffe. Though he leaves Robert a drunken phone message every New Yearâs Eve, Noel hasnât seen or heard from him in a decade. So heâs thrilled when his former lover shows up at his upstate farm one Christmas Eve. Elation quickly turns to alarm when Robert accuses Noel of being responsible for a recent rash of diamond heists. Robert is all business and as cold as ice: it seems his only interest in Noel is to put him behind bars. Innocent of the crimes, and still as attracted as ever to the oh-so-serious lawman, Noel plans a second seductionâproviding he can stay out of jail long enough! âThe story was sweet in the menâs awkwardness but it was a step toward what could be and it was very heart-warming.â âBook Binge
