Rook to King

When Bodie King, a con man known for (alleged) art thefts, steps into my antique store, I know I’m in trouble.

Not only is he charming, devastatingly handsome, and used to getting what he wants, but he’s looking for a priceless chess set.

The same one I’m searching for.

The race is on and I have to use everything I know about the chess set to get it before him.

Too bad he doesn’t play fair. (Or doesn’t scare easily at broadswords and fuzzy slippers.)

But when things take a dark turn and someone sets the antique store on fire, Bodie becomes an unlikely ally.

Now I just have to remember all the reasons I shouldn’t fall for the competition:

He’ll steal the chess set out from under me if he can.

2) He’s a great kisser.

Oops, no. I mean, 2) He has deadly enemies. He's too distracting. What happens when the lines are blurred, and he steals my heart?
