Icarus by K. Ancrum
3.5

3.5/5…..Icarus Gallagher is a thief. He steals priceless art and replaces it with his father's impeccable forgeries. For YEARS , one man the wealthy Mr.
Black has been their target in revenge for his role in the death of Icarus's mother. To keep their secret, Icarus adheres to his own strict rules to keep people, and feelings, at bay: Don't let anyone close. Don't let anyone touch you. And, above all, don't get caught. Until one night, he does. Not by Mr. Black but by his mysterious son, Helios, now living under house arrest in the Black mansion. I fear I see why I don’t like romance books. This was sooo insta-lovey for me. And for as smart as Icarus came off, he was being an over all dumb ass. For some odd reason him and his father been stealing from Mr.Black for years as said in the synopsis but Icarus thought he was the crème de la crème of art forgeries. Ok fine. But gets caught a sudden all his rule go out the window. And so did he. All for a boy Helios who apparently were born for each other.
