Trusting the Cat Burglar

Abigail met Tony Russo one winter night when he broke into her library to steal a map—and she caught him. Now, just six weeks into a whirlwind romance, it might be a map that tears them apart.

Abigail, up for tenure soon, has lured the prestigious and charming Frenchman Jean-Pierre Mauvais to display his rare collection at the university library. But when Mauvais reveals a secret about one of his maps that links to Tony’s dark past, it might be more than Abigail bargained for when she fell in love with her handsome thief.

Tony, serving time in community service and struggling to start up a legitimate business, is content because he has found the love of his life. But soon, he realizes fresh starts aren’t easy, and that building—and keeping—someone’s trust is more difficult than he thought.

As danger lurks closer, and Abigail’s career is put in jeopardy, how far will she go to keep Tony in her life?
