Description

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts comes a novel about a woman who needs nothing, a man who sees everything, and the web of deceit, greed and danger that brings them together—and could tear them apart...
 
When professional house-sitter Lila Emerson witnesses a murder/suicide from her current apartment-sitting job, life as she knows it takes a dramatic turn. Suddenly, the woman with no permanent ties finds herself almost wishing for one...
 
Artist Ashton Archer knows his brother isn’t capable of violence—against himself or others. He recruits Lila, the only eyewitness, to help him uncover what happened. Chalking up their intense attraction to the heat of the moment, Lila agrees to help Ash try to find out who murdered his brother and why. From the penthouses of Manhattan to grand Italian villas, their investigation draws them into a rarefied circle where priceless antiques are bought, sold, gambled away and stolen; where what you possess is who you are; and where what you desire becomes a deadly obsession...

    Couldn’t even bring myself to finish it. The characters are BORING or worse just plain unlikeable, especially Lila. The story itself is completely far fetched and there is a huge plot hole. I won’t spoil it but will just say the two main characters could have gotten themselves out of harm’s way in the first half of the book by just letting the police handle it. I am shocked this book has the ratings it does.

    This was a fun, suspenseful book to read. Although it was completely predictable, it was fun to see how everything would be tied together.
  • Best of Nora Robert’s work.
