One
fateful July morning forever changed the lives of Sémya Slotin and her best
friend Polliannah Guryev.
Vincent Edgerton, the only
man Sémya has ever loved, was taken from her by an explosion and a fire that
she couldn’t understand, trust, nor explain. It left her alone, hurt, angry and
desperately seeking answers. On top of everything, she is also incredibly
hormonal; Sémya Slotin is going to be a mother.
Polliannah just healed from
losing her husband but seeing her best friend grieving is not only breaking her
heart, it has been a strain on their once close-knit relationship. She is
afraid that Sémya will completely disappear into her grief. Thankfully,
Polliannah can always seek refuge with the handsome Chief Superintendent James
Connelly. In the past three months, he has become her safe haven. But when they
finally give in to each other and Jim reveals his true feeling for her,
Polliannah pulls away. Is she ready to
put herself out there again?
Then all of the sudden,
Sémya, the pregnant Detective
Extraordinaire is chasing art thieves across the globe, making dangerous deals
and finally meeting her father… It’s all about ex-lovers and new ones, a
priceless painting, con artists, baby bumps, an impromptu trip to Moscow,
designer dresses, teacakes, a birthday ball and reconnecting with your roots.
With everything that has
happened this year, Sémya and Polliannah are more vulnerable and exposed than
they have ever been. Will Jim’s love and trust be enough to ease Polliannah’s
doubts? Will Sémya find out what happened to Vincent?
Welcome
to the Stages & Thieves saga, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Excerpts
“Isn’t your father named
Ulrich? I’m not giving birth to an Ulrich. It sounds like the name of a war
criminal,” she told him. Vincent released her and frowned. Me and my big, insensitive mouth… “But I’m sure your father wears
it with my pride,” she said rapidly. I’m not pregnant anyway. “I love you,”
she said sheepishly when he unwound her from his body and sat upright on the
bed. What, no more sexy time?
“You are so frustrating
sometimes Babe,” he told her and helped her up to sit next to him. “You’re lucky
I love you too.” He kissed her tenderly and caressed her hair. “My mother had
the exact same reaction,” he said with a cheeky grin. “Why do you want a name
starting with an S?” he asked more seriously.
Sémya simply shrugged back. On
her father’s side, everyone’s name started with an S, including hers. She
didn’t know her paternal family, only that the Dovos were powerful, rich and
dangerous. But her mother named her Sémya for a reason and she would really
like to know why. She put her arms around his neck. “Don’t be daft Heinz. Sasha is a name I’ve always
liked. Sasha Slotin… it has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?” she asked,
calling him by his alias Josh Heinz.
Vincent laughed and pulled her
onto his lap. “Edgerton… my child, my name,” he told her. Sémya blushed back.
She might break that curse the women in her family seemed to be under. My possible baby will have a father!
“But not Sasha,” he added.
Sémya pouted back but
involuntary purred when Vincent ran his hand over her back. Vincent kissed her,
slowly at first but then he deepened the kiss, pressing her against him. His
hard-defined body was fitting perfectly against her new lush curves. “What
names do you have in mind then?” she moaned.
“We’re going to miss our
flight,” he whispered in her ear instead and licked it. She shuddered in his
arms. That was an understatement. Polliannah wasn’t going to like that. “A
special name to the both of us, one that means something and symbolizes us, our
love, our unique situation… how beautiful, smart, funny, stubborn, and sexy his
or her mother is and how nuts about her I am,” he told her.
Sémya felt a tear on her cheek.
Silly hormones! “This isn’t going to
be easy or even possible. Who could have such a name?”
“I cannot wait to find out… if
only–” Vincent said while he was lying back on their bed.
“– I’m not taking that damn
pregnancy test!” she giggled.
“First thing in London?” he
asked her and kissed her nose.
“First thing in London,” Sémya
agreed and raised her hips to meet his. “I love you, Vincent. You’re mine and I
yours…” Silly hormones!
Vincent groaned back and
plunged into her. Finally… “Until my
last breath Sémya Louise Slotin and maybe a little after, I love you.”
Sémya urgently kissed him and
arched her back. Heaven, I’m in absolute heaven…those silly hormones make me so girly…
