Would have given it 5 stars if his POV wasn’t in 3rd person!! Why is her POV 1st Person but his POV is 3rd person??

I'm morally opposed to billionaire heroes these days (no one needs to be a billionaire, and giving to charity is often more about tax evasion than aid, BUT I DIGRESS) buuuut I'm also morally opposed to not reading whatever Anna Hackett writes, so here we are. And as billionaires go, Zane was pretty nice, I liked him as a hero and I bought into his feelings for Monroe. Monroe was great, her career I particularly enjoyed reading about, and if anyone deserved a happy ending with someone super rich, it was her after all the rubbish she had to put up with in her life. Though this book hasn't reinvented the wheel, I had a lot of fun reading it and I look forward to the rest of the trilogy, even if it delays us getting Vander's book!

Stealing From Mr. Rich is a story that I honestly just came across as I was browsing through the Kindle Unlimited library and was looking for something to fit my mood and then I saw the title and I was like, I have to read this book. I have read this author before, but only a couple of her science fiction romance titles, and I have really liked her writing style and from the beginning, I knew that this book would work for me. This is a dual POV, which I highly enjoyed, and I loved seeing the various perspectives of both the hero and heroine in this one. I was so captivated by this story here and just sped through it in one afternoon. It was just a fun quick read that gave me exactly what I was looking for at the right time and seeing the way these two people interacted was so delightful. I especially adored the hero. I love how good and honest he is, and that he uses his wealth to help others and I feel for him when he is used and manipulated for his money alone. I felt so much transparency from his character and I just wanted him to find that special woman he could connect with. Seeing how Zane and Monroe just connected to each other, despite the circumstances, was really heartwarming. You see how true they are and even though they are opposite from each other, they connect on a deep level which is on their values and inner principles and I truly couldn't get enough of this couple. I can't wait to explore more of this author's contemporary works, I had no idea she had them until now.

A cat-and-mouse chase, where she's after a necklace and he's after her. The MCs are very likeable - she's feisty and independent, while he's sexy, caring and completely obsessed with her. A little insta-love, but I enjoyed their chemistry/romance, they really challenged each other. Hilarious banter and chase, with some solid steam (piano/dining table sex!). But the repeated mentions of "billionaire" definitely gets old. The plot could be also more rounded, but overall, it's a fun heist romance!

Series: Billionaire Heists #1
Rating: 5 stars - I loved it!

Monroe has done everything she can to break away from her father’s criminal past, unfortunately when her brother finds himself in trouble she finds herself tasked with stealing from a billionaire.

I love a good heist romance and this one really worked for me. Monroe was a kind, smart, and sassy heroine. She will do anything to protect her brother, even break her oath to not steal. I adored her work ethic, her determination to protect her brother, and her ability to stand up to Zane and his friends. She doesn’t let Zane’s wealth play a part in their relationship, which is just what he needs.

Zane was a smart and successful man who no longer trusts people. He expects everyone to be in search of money or to use him to climb the corporate ladder. With Monroe, he finds himself letting his guard down and finding that not everyone is out to get him. I just adored these two and their danger filled relationship.

Overall, this was a wonderful and action packed start to a new series. I really loved Zane and Monroe, and I can’t wait to see Liam and Mav fall in love.
