Interpretation In Favor Of Books Thief (The Scarab Beetle #1)
Kayli Winchester is a dirt-poor girl living out of a hotel, forced to be the parent for a drunken father and teenage brother who she’s desperate to keep in school. The only way she scrapes by is to utilize her one skill: pickpocketing. But even though she’s a thief she has a moral code: no kids or old ladies, only targets who can defend themselves. Not that they see her coming…Thinking she’s been working under the radar, Kayli has no idea The Academy has been watching and taking notice. Now a team that needs her skill has offered her a way out of her predicament and it’s her last chance: work with them, or face jail time. Kayli resists at first, but slowly the boys reveal they can be trusted. With Marc, the straight man, Raven, the bad-boy Russian, Corey and Brandon the twins as different as night and day, and Axel their stoic leader, there’s a lot Kayli can learn from these Academy guys about living on the edge of the law. If only she can stay on the good side instead of the bad.
Especially when the job they offer her is more than any of them bargained for. After it’s done, the hunters have become the hunted and their target is now after Kayli. The Academy boys do their best to keep her hidden, but a thief like Kayli will never sit still for long.
Meet an all-new Academy team in Thief, the beginning of the Scarab Beetle series.
Warning: This is a new adult series. Readers of the other Academy series may need some caution as this series will contain mature sexual and violent situations and themes.

Not that they see her comingThinking shes been working under the radar, Kayli has no idea The Academy hasMy harem of Academy guys keeps growing and I don't feel any guilt about it :D. Thief is as amazing as any of the books from The Academy but with a different group of guys, a different bird and a whole lot more action compared to the first book from the Ghost Bird series.The new crew of Academy guys is older and rougher, but they're as HOT and smart as the other guys: First we have Axel, the sexy leader of the team that is introduced to us in a very particular completely naked way. Then there's
Marc and his Academy team are tasked with capturing a pickpocket; they get more than they bargained for when they find Kayli. She steals to pay the rent and is trying to hold things together just long enough for her brother to make it to college - she really doesn't like stealing. The team makes her a deal - pick one rich guy's pocket and they will pay her rent and help her find a real job so she doesn't have to steal anymore. Of course, taking the wallet just leads to more questions about the
So this review is gonna be long because it contains quite a lot of quotes.It started out so good. Interesting story, intriguing plot and diverse characters. But then I got beyond the first 15%.Kayli is so infuriatingly annoying and extremely childish. Shes had a tough life, I get it. Shes starved for attention and affection. But does she have to flirt and cling to all the guys in this story? I liked the story in the beginning, and I didnt start to dislike Kayli until she was starting to get to
A new adult story and a spin off from The Ghost Bird series by from the wonderful writer and author C. L. Stone. Thief actually runs parrell to Drop of Doubt interweaving the storylines.

3.75 I think I can get behind this stars...First let me say that this book, series, and subject matter is not for everyone. This series is about a Reverse Harem (RH) meaning that there is one woman and multiple men all in a singular committed relationship. I was unaware until recently that there was even such a thing.
