For Art gallery assistant, Caesar Romano, the big art gallery show was his chance to impress a potential new employer. What he gets instead is a mystery of a missing art piece, a former flame showing up driving him bonkers and enough stress to fell a giant. Add in hottie Detective Dan Green making eyes at Caesar, and a blackmail scheme that has more suspects than Caesar can count. Can Caesar solve the mystery while trying to keep sane in the process?

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
is a wild, fun ride from start to finish. I love this author’s way of writing. It grabs your attention from the first page and doesn’t let go until the last page is read. You have got some wonderful characters that will have you giggling, a mystery to keep you flipping the pages and some sexual tension that will explode when you least expect it. I couldn’t put this book down; it had me giggling one minute and the next squirming in my seat. This is a great storyteller who can hit all of your emotions within the pages of her books.

Meet Caesar Romano, a lowly art gallery assistant who is determined to make this night’s event shine so he can move onto a new job at a higher end gallery. Openly gay, Caesar never expects to meet Detective Dan Green at the gallery even as he tries to advert enough potential problems; he is about to combust from the stress or the attraction Caesar feels toward Dan. Add in a missing sculpture, an ex-boyfriend who won’t go away and a weird blackmail scheme that threatens his boss, Caesar is about to throw everything away and hid in his nana’s closet. I have to admit, Caesar had me laughing from the beginning. He seems like a person you want to have as a friend even as you are trying not to yell at him to stop hyperventilating over things. L. B. Gregg delivers some wonderful multi-dimensional characters that fairly step off the pages and into your heart. With some wonderfully intriguing secondary characters, the story flows smoothly. Caesar and Dan work well together and I loved how the sparks flew each time they met, sometimes not in very ideal places either.

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
is a fun, wild ride from start to finish. With a fast paced storyline, likable characters and writing that will put a spell upon you. L. B. Gregg is a wonderful storyteller who delivers all that and more with her books. I am highly anticipating another adventure for the Romano and Albright series in the future. I just hope it won’t be too long till the author delivers it.
