Wasted potential. There could have been so many twists and turns, mistaken identity to make an interesting thriller with a romantic twist. Instead, it was bland and so clicheed. (

Precious Rafferty, known as Preshy, is an American antiques dealer living in Paris. She meets and falls head over hills for Bennett James, but there turns out to be more than meets the eye. He leaves her at the altar and Preshy is left wondering why. Her aunt does some investigating on her own and finds out he has weaved a web of lies and is furious with what he has done to Preshy. In the meantime, her cousin Lily who lives in Shanghai and knows Bennett, contacts Preshy even though they have never meet before. She agrees to meet Lily in Venice, but before she can meet her, Lily is killed and Preshy is left wondering what it was that Lily wanted to tell her. In the meantime Preshy meets Sam who also has a mysterious past, but wants to help Preshy with her present situation. (

Usually I enjoy Elizabeth Adler, this one I didn't. The plot was so implausible that it was annoying. Chinese woman who deals in stealing antiques inherits necklace belonging to last Empress. Her thief best friend connives to steal it, while that woman's boyfriend plans to steal it from her. He then goes to Europe to try to marry another woman but dumps her when he finds she won't inherit a lot of money. That woman is the cousin of first Chinese woman and so on. (
