I Stole His Car (Love at First Crime 1) by Jessica Frances

Review: 
This book is about Ava she's seen something she shouldn't and now she's on the run from her ex and the police but when she steals a car she'll get more than she bargained for. She now must stay undetected to stay alive but luckily for her stealing a strangers car will be the best thing to happen to her. The owner of the car named Zander is a private detective and he's willing to help her. But when Zander and his little brother end up in the line of fire will Ava be able to stay strong, turn the bad guys in and keep her new friends safe?

This book was so awesome! I loved Ava she tries to steal a car to get away from her ex who's into some pretty dark stuff and accidentally kidnaps a kid at the same time. When he takes a liking to Ava she's lucky to get the help of his brother Zander. He gives her shelter and takes care of her while he tries to help her get evidence of what her ex is into to hand it over to the police. When Ken turns on Zander I was so surprised then he takes Ava and she's back in his evil hands I was scared about what was going to happen but she's a tough cookie and does what she has to, to try and save the other women. Although I didn't know if Zander was really still alive I was hoping and glad that he was. This book is just great it had action, some drama, a romance between Ava and Zander but it's not the focus of the story I loved that the book was well balanced with the action and romance. I definitely want to read the next book in this series.

She stole his car, so he stole her heart…


I saw something I never should have seen.
I took something they wanted back.
I was desperate.
Alone.
Hunted.
So, I did something I never would have normally done.
I stole a car.
Not just any car.
His car.
Now I have no choice but to trust him.
Only he can help me get out of this mess.
Then, when we both become hunted,
And when feelings begin to complicate things,
Can I still count on his protection?
Can I trust what is happening between us to be real?
Because, as some people say: there is nothing quite like love at first … crime.


Then Zander’s gaze turns back to me, and I don’t feel so warm and fuzzy toward him anymore. Instead, I feel as though I’m facing a judge and ready to hear the verdict on just how many years I’m about to be thrown in jail.

“You stole my car,” he growls.


“Yes.” No point denying it.


“You kidnapped my twelve-year-old brother.”


“Technically, yes. However, I wasn’t aware he was in the car at the time,” I pathetically try to defend my actions.


“You came back, though, even after I told you I was calling the police.” His stance is stern, but I see the same expression of curiosity that I saw earlier in Van. 


“Yes.” I glance around again, waiting to see the flashing lights of a police car approaching in the distance. Instead, I see a lone officer in uniform approaching us. 


I don’t recognize him as one of Brian’s friends, but that doesn’t mean he won’t hand me over to him.


I barely even got to enjoy my freedom away from Brian. Well, it technically wasn’t freedom since I was chased the entire time.


Why can’t I just catch a break?


I can’t stop myself from stepping away from the young officer, my body back to being tense and shaky. I hate that this feels normal to me now. It never used to be. Now it feels strange to feel relaxed.


“What’s wrong?” Van asks me, his concern sweet.


“Excuse me, but did I just hear you accuse this woman of stealing your car?” the officer asks, swinging his hand to rest on his side arm in what looks like a reflex.


Silence falls over us. Van looks as panicked as I feel. I can’t read Zander’s face, but he hasn’t confirmed the man’s words. That gives me a small amount of hope. Maybe he is the most forgiving man in the world.
