How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days meets White Collar in this sassy and sweet romantic comedy, new from bestselling author Kaitlyn Davis, writing as Kay Marie.
All Jolene Carter has ever wanted is a bakery of her own. There’s only one problem. Her father, Robert Carter, is a world-renowned art thief and she’s, well, sort of his protégé. But he’s promised her this next job in New York will be their last, and she won’t let anyone get in the way of her dreams…especially not the distractingly delicious FBI agent hot on her tail.
Agent Nate Parker has been on the Robert Carter case for years, and if rumors of the aging criminal’s retirement are true, this might be his last chance to nail him. With the legacy of his late father in the back of his mind, the stakes are more personal than anyone realizes. He won’t let anything stand in the way of justice…especially not the red-headed vixen who keeps giving him the slip.
He’s a cop who’d never bend. She’s a con who’ll never break. But all’s fair in love and larceny…

My Review

Opposites attract novels can be a lot of fun and what greater opposites can there be than an FBI agent and the daughter of an art forger, who also happens to be a hacker herself? To be honest, I was interested to read how this story panned out, as I couldn't see how two such mismatched people could really find their way to one another. 

I liked both Jolene and Nate. I think that I would have prefered Jolene to be a bit less, I'm not sure, fluffy? I know that she was interested in baking and having her own bakery, but she could have still done that and been a bit tougher I think, but maybe that's just me being picky. Even so, I did like both characters and liked to see the way that they developed their interest in one another. 

Despite my concerns about how these two would be able to come together, it did work and their relationship was believable. I'm not sure that if this were real life things would be so simple as they were at the end, but it worked in this book. This was an enjoyable read and I'd be happy to read the next in the series.
