With a priceless collection at stake...Is everything for the taking?It had taken centuries for Max Bannister’s family to acquire their treasures, and now he’s been asked to risk his collection as bait for a master criminal. For his own reasons, Max allows a public exhibition, and to protect the family fortune he must rely on the skills of his half brother—a world-class security expert—and his smart and savvy exhibit director, Morgan West.
But almost immediately, Morgan comes face-to-face with the mysterious Quinn, Interpol’s most wanted thief for the past decade—and a man who makes it very clear he has an eye on the Bannister collection. And if that’s not enough, Morgan begins to realize that she’s surrounded by secrets and lies, and that someone very close to Max is moving behind the scenes, intent on murder as well as robbery...someone whose ultimate plan threatens to ruin them all.

I first discovered Kay Hooper when I was 18 years old, now it's almost 20 years later and I still love her books, she is still one of my favorite authors. I think I actually read this book before, years ago, because I was having a strangely large amount of deja vu. There are really four main characters in this book, you have Wolfe and Storm and their relationship and Morgan and Quinn and their "relationship" although the book is mostly focused on Wolfe and Storm and definitely the thieves.

To me the book was more about Wolfe and Storm, who I absolutely loved together. Hopefully, the next book is more Quinn and Morgan, though I would love to see Wolfe and Storm make an appearance.
Don't miss this one!Suave thief, plus Interpol agents, murderous thief gang, twisty romantic touches, and engaging characters make this an engrossing read. If you enjoy the idea of an elusive cat burglar enmeshed in a mystery as a hero, definitely puck this up and follow it with Always a Thief.
I am so grateful that this book was recommended! I love the details involved and the mystery that is intertwined amidst the story line. It was well written and you get to know both the main characters Quinn and Morgan. Two sides of the law that are brought together through the Bannister collection. Quinn is the daring, romantic thief very reminiscent of Danny Ocean or Pierre Despereaux. The last of a dying breed of gentlemen thieves. This was a nice transition from the other genres of Romance
Once A Thief can't seem to make up it's mind, whether it's a suspense or romance novel. The Bannister's collection of jewels and artwork is to be put on public display, as bait for an international criminal.From a suspense viewpoint, we have an international cat burglar, a gang of criminals robbing museums and security measures being put into place to safeguard the collection.. Unfortunately the suspense doesn't build up, as the author appears to be saving most of the action for the next book in
A cute little romance with some suspense...
