This is different approach to a "romance" than I would have expected. Asher is a bad boy thief who takes pleasure in making engaged women fall for him, in effect stealing their hearts when he knows they belong with someone else. Once he wins his little twisted game, he tosses them away because they meant nothing at all to him. But meeting Sloane excites him because he sees this one as a challenge. The game certainly backfires on him because she ends up stealing his heart instead! Sloane helps children for a non-profit organization and seems to be well-liked by everyone. She is engaged to marry Wes. Although this doesn’t deter Asher who cares nothing about such commitment, Sloane herself will make him work for what he wants. She makes sure it doesn’t come easily. Is this all a game for her too? Will Ash make her fall in love with him? Is this finally the one he won’t let get away? There are many emotions pulled out in this book. But when I can’t like the characters, it makes it difficult to enjoy the book. Asher is just plain mean-spirited and takes his joy in demeaning others. Sloane is stubborn which helps her resist him, but I didn’t feel like she was as good as she may have seemed. I guess it comes down to this book not being a good fit for me personally. I’m glad I didn’t have the paperback or I might have ripped out a few pages now and then.

Asher is a thief and it doesn't matter what he steals he loves the thrill of it. Form the moment he sees Sloan at her bachelorette party he's determined to steal her heart. Asher and Sloane are complete opposites but the roller coaster ride they go one is a twisty one of will they or won't they. This is a well written entertaining story and I can't wait to read the next book in The Unforgivable series.
