Stone Cold Fox
Description
A perfectly wicked debut thriller 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. Filthy rich. After years of forced instruction by her mother in the art of swindling men, a now-solo Bea wants nothing more than to close and lock the door on their sordid partnership so she can disappear safely into old-money domesticity, sealing the final phase of her escape. When Bea chooses her ultimate target in the fully loaded, thoroughly dull and blue-blooded Collin Case, she's ready to deploy all of 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 1 percent tax bracket, particularly his childhood best friend, Gale Wallace-Leicester. 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 pursuit of the grisly truth. Finding herself at a literal life-and-death crossroads with everything on the line, Bea must finally decide who she really wants to be. Like mother, like daughter?

More of a vacation read, this book follows the main character in her desire for the ultimate long con - to settle down in marriage. As the chapters bounce between her life growing up with her con artist mother and her current life to bag the rich eligible bachelor, this book unfolds like a beach read. Only the chapters are too long and the story line is a tad predictable.
Started off slow and then picked up at the end, but I was hoping for a little more excitement at the end tbh
IS THERE A SECOND ONE??? THERE HAS TO BE.
this was rachel killer croft’s debut & she KILLED it (haha). this was such a fast paced book, but i still felt like there was character development & ended up feeling for the MC. if you’re looking for a page-turner that gives old money vibes & all the secrets that come with it - pick this one up.

I liked the twists and turns with this book and an interesting ending. It felt like there could be a sequel. I listened to it on audible and the narrator was fantastic. Also gave off some gossip girl vibes
