Stone Cold Fox

Summary: A compelling debut novel about an ambitious woman who, after a lifetime of conning alongside her mother, wants to leave her dark past behind and marry the heir to one of the country’s wealthiest families.

Like any enterprising woman, Bea knows what she’s worth and is determined to get all she deserves—it just so happens that what she deserves is to marry rich. After a lifetime of forced instruction in the art of swindling men by her mother, Bea wants nothing more than to escape her shadow, close the door on their sordid past, and disappear safely into old-money domesticity.

When Bea finds her final mark in the perfectly dull blue-blooded Collin, she’s ready to deploy all her tricks one last time. The challenge isn’t getting the ring, but rather the approval of Collin’s family and everyone else in their tax bracket, particularly his childhood best friend Gale. Going toe-to-toe with Gale isn’t a threat to an expert like Bea, but what begins as an amusing cat-and-mouse game quickly develops into a dangerous chase. As the truth of Bea’s past threatens to come roaring out, she finds herself racing against the clock to pass the finish line before everything is exposed.

 

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

I love listening to books while I walk, but I sometimes have a hard time finding narrators I adore.

The last few months, my Audible credits were piling dangerously high so I started trying to find books to listen to. I had been seeing Stone Cold Fox on Instagram and decided to take a chance.

 

What I Liked:

This cover is GREAT!

Bea. Gosh, she was a hoot. I would find myself laughing at many of her observations.

The ending. I loved it.

 

Bottom line: Carlotta Brentan did a fantastic job narrating this book and I will def look up more books narrated by her in the future.
