When Bodie King, a con man known for (alleged) art thefts, steps into my antique store, I know Iâm in trouble.
Not only is he charming, devastatingly handsome, and used to getting what he wants, but heâs looking for a priceless chess set.
The same one Iâm searching for.
The race is on and I have to use everything I know about the chess set to get it before him.
Too bad he doesnât play fair. (Or doesnât scare easily at broadswords and fuzzy slippers.)
But when things take a dark turn and someone sets the antique store on fire, Bodie becomes an unlikely ally.
Now I just have to remember all the reasons I shouldnât fall for the competition:
Heâll steal the chess set out from under me if he can.
2) Heâs a great kisser.
Oops, no. I mean, 2) He has deadly enemies. He's too distracting. What happens when the lines are blurred, and he steals my heart?
