Shimmy Bang Sparkle

Shimmy Bang Sparkle

To catch a thief...or fall for one? All Nick Norton wants is to stay on the straight and narrow...and never get caught stealing again. Then he lays eyes on her: Stella Peretti--100 percent sexy and absolutely irresistible. Especially when he sees her smooth moves lifting a two-karat diamond. Nick realizes he's found the sparkling woman of his dreams--one so perfect for him it's almost criminal. The Shimmy Shimmy Bangs are master jewel thieves who are planning the heist of the century. And Shimmy leader, Stella, isn't about to let anyone--even if he is a hunky, tatted-up studmuffin--get in her way. But when two of her girls are put out of commission, Stella realizes that Nick isn't just a red-hot distraction. He might be the answer to her pilfering prayers. Now, Nick and Stella are putting everything on the line for one last job. But when two thieves have this much chemistry, it's only a matter of time before somebody's heart gets stolen.

"But we were also known as the Shimmy Shimmy Bangs. We were the Lady Robin Hoods of the American Southwest. And we were going to do one last jewel heist. The biggest of them all. The North Star." Nick Norton celebrated his 40th birthday in jail, but now he's out and determined to keep on the straight and narrow. No more lock-picking, no more jewel heists, no more gambling. But, this motorcycle riding cinnamon roll is in for the greatest heist of his life when he is unwittingly roped into helping a beautiful and hilarious woman steal a diamond engagement ring. A theft she uses to help pay for and reclaim her elderly neighbor's pawned items. A gorgeous, modern day Robin Hood. Stella and her two besties are preparing for their final heist, their last hurrah, and is not in the market for another partner, romantic or otherwise. But, Nick is completely and irresistibly sweet, not to mention utterly delicious. When her two friends are hurt in a car accident, Stella figures out she may actually need Nick's help after all. What follows is a slightly insta-love but so good romance that you don't care heist story that just is the perfect combination of steam, heart, and fun. Similar to Tamara Morgan's Stealing Mr. Right but with SEX. Yes. I was not expecting this book and I loved it so much. Highly recommend. Also, a cute dachshund and great female friendships that I hope are explored in more books.
