Thief (Love Me With Lies #3)

Thief
This is the conclusion of Olivia and Caleb's story.
If you haven't read the first two books, you are missing out. I love the first two books.

Thief is mostly from Caleb's POV, although we get some of Olivia and Noah's too. It's nice to be in Caleb's mind for a change.
Just the name of the main characters make me want them together in the end. (I love the dark duet's Olivia and Caleb)
I was so excited to read Thief.  I have been looking forward to it since finishing Dirty Red. This book is narrated in the past and the present. Duchess and Caleb are not done suffering.  Olivia is still married. There may be someone else in Caleb's life.  Some people still want them apart (cough- Leah- cough). If you love drama this is the perfect novel.  In my case, I like less suffering specially since the couple has suffered for ten years already.  I wanted more happiness.  I know RL is not like this but I'm a hopeless romantic.
I'm going to miss these characters and I was left with some questions about some of the other characters lives.
I want to mention that the cover of this book is awesome. The model is a perfect Caleb.

Spoiler Fangalert: please stop reading if you don't want to be spoiled.

I was disappointed Leah didn't end with the nanny.
I was sad about the hysterectomy. I mean if Olivia had ovarian cancer stage 1- she will only need an oophorectomy with salpigectomy on the side affected and no hysterectomy is required. She could have still conceived. But, if she had more advanced cancer then she will need a debulking surgery which includes oophorectomy, hysterectomy and lymph node resection follow by chemotherapy and she would have lost her hair.
In the end I'm happy airport blue got his penny back.

Dirty Red (Love Me With Lies #2) by Tarryn Fisher

Dirty Red
This book is from Leah's POV. Why will the author devote a whole book to Red? I don't know.
I hate Leah and yet it was good to read this book.
I understand why she acts evil at times. And I want her so far away from Caleb that's not even funny. But, do I want her with Nanny Sam as HEA, probably.
This book has tons of angst too. I want to still slap everyone except Olivia.
The end of book two, in a way is great. I want Caleb to hurt for his poor choices.


Spoiler Fangalert: Is Caleb's brother the baby's daddy?
Is the Gift Olivia opened on her birthday wrap in Airport blue the penny?? Is Leah going to try to hurt Olivia physically?
I hope not, otherwise she won't end up with Sam.
Can't wait for Thief. What is Caleb stealing from Noah-hmmm Olivia maybe?
4/5 Fangs

The Opportunist (Love Me With Lies #1) by Tarryn Fisher

The Opportunist
Olivia Kaspen met Caleb in college. She tried to avoid him at all cost. She knew he was trouble from the start.
At the beginning she tries to stay away but later on she only wants him. She will do anything to get him back. And unfortunately, she makes the wrong choices. At the end they end up their relationship in the worse way ever. Years later they meet again, but Caleb has lost his memory after a car accident. She grabs the opportunity fate has handed her. The only problem is that Caleb has a girlfriend and she is evil.

What a book!! It remind so much of the Avoiding series.
It is painful to read. The angst is superb. Days later I'm still thinking about this book.
Caleb's choices are poor to say the least. Half the time I want to scream at both and slap a few people. The emotions this book brings are incredible.
Airport blue has never been the best color ever and a penny has never meant so much.
4/5 Fangs- because I want more in the epilogue.
