Stealing Hearts - Tangled Hearts, #2

In the glittering South of France, Evie finds herself at a dangerous impasse where love, betrayal, and a stolen ruby pendant intertwine in a web of intrigue. Life took a sharp turn for Evie Madison the night her grandmother's necklace was brutally stolen. When it reappears ten years later at a private auction, Evie can't resist the temptation to steal it back. But is it fate, coincidence, or something more sinister that the first person she encounters after the theft is none other than Raphael Dauphin? The enigmatic French property magnate who shattered her heart when he vanished from her life that fateful night a decade ago. With security guards hot on her trail, Raph offers Evie an escape route-become his fake fiancée, in exchange for his protection, and help secure a crucial property deal on the French Riviera.
But as their sizzling chemistry reignites, so does the threat from Evie's past. As the danger lurking in the shadows escalates, Raph realises the only way to keep Evie safe is to unravel the truth behind the stolen jewel, starting with confronting their own tempestuous history. "Stealing Hearts will transport you to the sun-soaked shores of the Mediterranean, where the stakes are high, and true love hangs in the balance."
