It was supposed to be a routine job: steal an artifact from a Mexican museum to prove to the board members that Desi’s security company could protect it better. And it starts out well enough—she gets the goods and makes her escape. But questions crop up soon that make her wonder what’s really going on in Mexico and whether she wants to accept the President’s request to help them figure out the archaeological espionage. After all, she has a wedding to plan, and her FBI fiancé will be none too thrilled if she finds herself in trouble! Reluctant Smuggler takes the reader back into the rush and tumble lives of Desiree Jacobs and Tony Lucano as the two work on opposite ends of a serious drug/art trafficking problem between the U.S. and Mexico. The third book in the To Catch a Thief trilogy, returning readers will find the same fire and punch in the main characters and a brand new mystery that needs solving. But when the simple turns complicated for both of them, they have to wonder if they’ll make it to their wedding day. The action in this book stands on its own, but readers will be better able to understand the dynamic between the hero and heroine if they read Reluctant Burglar and Reluctant Runaway first, both fantastic reads that it’s no hardship to pick up! I had been eagerly awaiting this final installment in the series, and I wasn’t disappointed. Desi and Tony had to work at overcoming their personal obstacles as well as the world that was ganging up on them, and I absolutely loved how it all played out. I’m often frustrated with characters’ emotional hang-ups, even when I know they’re necessary, but I was thrilled at how Nelson handled the inner conflict in this book. Both Tony and Desi remained reasonable and open to the Spirit of their Lord through it all, which allowed the action to remain quick and steady. Reluctant Smuggler is a must to add to your reading list if you’re a fan of romantic suspense! The pages will fly by under your fingers, and the depth and intrigue will make each one satisfying.
