My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ring Tru is the first book in the Thick As Thieves Series by Janice M Whiteaker. I had never read any of her work before this and was unsure what to expect. Lets just say that she gets a huge ‘thumbs up’ from me. I really enjoyed Ring Tru.
Tru has decided that it’s time to get away from her life as a high class thief but has one last big job to give her the money needed to go back to a ‘normal’ life. She’s pretending to be in love with filthy rich geriatric Ezra in order to steal a very valuable piece of jewellery from him and replace it with a quality fake made by her close friend Gretchen.
What she didn’t expect was to find her ex-husband Will also working for Ezra with a similar plan in mind. Will had left Tru a few years before in order to get her away from this lifestyle and was shocked to see her. Both realise that they are still in love with each other and plan together to swindle Ezra.
I really enjoyed the dynamic between Will and Tru, him trying to protect her from harm and her fighting with her feelings for Will. She really wants to hate him for leaving her but can’t deny that she still loves him.
This book had me gripped wondering how (and if) they would finally manage to carry out their elaborate plan. In this book we get hints of a possible romance between Will’s friend Cooper and Tru’s friend Gretchen. I’m hoping we get more from these two in the next book in this series.

Ring Tru- Janice M. Whiteaker

5-stars

Ring Tru by Janice M. Whiteaker is a must read! It’s a second chance romance/crime/thriller type read, and I enjoyed every second of it. This story is action-packed, dramatic, entertaining and so captivating. From the first chapter I was hooked. I ended up reading this book in one sitting as I couldn’t bring myself to put it down, I just had to know how everything was going to play out.

I loved both these main characters from the start and I couldn’t wait to unravel their past, I found Tru and Will very intriguing. I really enjoyed how this story flowed and I loved all of the detail that Janice used, it made it easy to picture everything playing out in my mind as I was taken on a wild journey alongside Tru and Will in their newest acquisition.

I can’t wait to continue this series and I would definitely recommend it to others!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and now she has a new fan. I love a good suspense romance but this author exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book of the Thick as Thieves series and it was a perfect book to start a new series with. I was hooked on this book at the first chapter. I could not help but to fall in love with these characters. It only took me a few hours to devour this amazing story.

Tru has been a thief for a while now. She is on her last heist. Tru is so excited to start her new life. She just needs money to make sure she can get what she wants. Tru is getting close to what she wants and then the man she hates walks into her life again. She has not seen her ex husband in years and he still looks good. Her ex husband is now security to the man she is trying to steal from. Tru knows his games and she is not going to fall for it this time. When she finds out the true reason why her ex Will is there she knows that their can be danger. Tru and Will get to know eachother again and sparks start to fly. Will Tru and Will get what they need or will they put themselves into danger they can’t get out of?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, suspense, and mystery. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Tru is a very independent woman that is afraid of getting hurt again. She just wants a family and someone to love her. Will is a beautiful man that is really smart. The way he cares for Tru will make you swoon. These characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This talented author will have you at the edge of your seat until the end. I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.

Ring Tru (Thick as Theives Book 1)Ring Tru by Janice M. Whiteaker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Janice M. Whiteaker’s Ring Tru is the first book of the Thick as Thieves series. This romantic suspense is fascinatingly written. Tru and Will are the primary/lead characters in this tale and they distinctly stand out, as they should. I liked Tru’s whit and fire that was well established and shown through. Adding in Will’s protectiveness and drive, this made a story rife with twists/turns as these two battle out their feelings/connection and try to complete their end game(s). The tug and pull between them was intriguing to read. The hints of their best friends as supporting characters in the story added perfectly to the allure of this story as it unfolded. This was a great beginning to the series and has definitely whetted my appetite and created a desire to see what’s next!

Ring Tru is the first book in Janice M Whiteaker’s new series called Thick as Thieves. I have read EVERYTHING that she has written so I have been sitting on hot coals while waiting for this one to be published! It is very different from her other books and I love how she can pick up a different ‘genre’ and just run with it!
Ring True is a story of second chances peppered with mystery, suspense, danger, intrigue, plots and a lot of love and heartache and … so basically everything under the sun! We meet Gertrude “True” and Will – they share a history, a very intense one and they did not depart on good terms … how would you call when your husband walks out on you when you are in hospital having been shot???!!! Even if he thinks that he did it because he thought it was the best thing he could do for you????!!! Men, do we need to say anything else!
Also, our Tru has been in a very interesting line of business for the last 15 years and she is so ready for a fresh start and this is the last job she will ever do in her old line of business … and then of course there is Will … is he on her side or is she the ‘enemy’ and what is the job he is working? Will he protect her? Will they find their way back to each other?
Pick up a copy and I know you will join me in impatiently waiting for the second book in the series!

4 stars

This was a first read for me by this author and I now cannot wait for the rest of this series.
Tru, is in a mission and the last thing she expects is Will, her ex husband, to be in her way.
I was intrigued to find out what exactly happened between these two as I read the story happening. There were many moving parts and as soon as you ask yourself “wait did I miss something?” You’re reading the answer in the next few pages. This had a bit of everything I love in a story and the chemistry between these two set my kindle on fire!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Ring Tru book one in the Thick As Thieves Series written by Janice M. Whiteaker. This was an interesting suspenseful second chance romance. Tru and Will are great characters and I loved this story. The push and pull from them was great and I loved the ending. Throughout the story you wonder which way the characters will go once you figure out what’s going on but you know there’s something your missing. You know the players and the outcome they want but there’s a missing player and you just keep reading because you have to know who the missing player is and their role. Wills best friend Cooper and Tru’s best friend Gretchen are the main characters in book two and I can’t wait to see how their story plays out.

Ring Tru by Janice M. Whittaker
Four Stars

Ring a True is the first book in the Thick as Thieves series by Janice M. Whittaker. This is the first book I have read by this author, but definitely won’t be the last. This fast paced book is full of action, drama, suspense and romance thrown in. I was hooked on the very first page, an$ couldn’t put it down till the last. What can I say, I’m a sucker for a good book featuring thieves. Tru is such a wonderful character, and at the beginning I was thinking Will was the bad guy in this story, however, as the story progresses and we learn more about Will the more I sympathize with him and understood why he did some of the things he did. This was a great story and I can’t wait to read more of this series and author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The book is a suspenseful romance about second chances, mistakes, cons, and maybe even forgiveness. I appreciated the author’s writing style and point of view as it allowed me as the reader to step directly into the pages and experience the storyline development alongside the characters. There was a natural push and pull in the plot which I appreciated. I felt like the storyline was well paced and thoughtful in its details. Overall it was a very enjoyable book presenting several characters I would like to learn more about. I look forward to reading more from this author and in this series.

Ring Tru (Thick As Thieves Series Book #1) by Janice M. Whiteaker – Review by Angela Hayes

Ring Tru (Thick as Theives Book 1)Ring Tru by Janice M. Whiteaker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Ring Tru is the first book in the Thick As Thieves Series by Janice M. Whiteaker. What a great way to start off a new series! I was hooked right from the first chapter. This is a brilliant second chances romance, with mystery, suspense, danger, intrigue, steam, tension, love, loss, heartache, hate, jewel thieves, friendships, plots, plans, and more.
Gertrude (Tru) has been in her line of business now for 15 years and is ready for a fresh start. But to make that happen, she needs to do one last job, so she can start over. She’s got just the right heist to set her up for the next stage of her life and she has put a lot of effort into setting things up and hopes she’ll soon see the fruits of her labour. Then he walks back into her life, and things get complicated.
Will and Tru have a history, and yes, he had hurt her, badly. But he thought he was doing what was best for her at the time. That was 5 years ago…. and now, she hates him. He really wonders if he did the right thing when he walked away. They are obviously working the same score, but for two different reasons. If he can’t find a way to get her to trust him and agree to work together, it may cost them a lot more than some jewels. But, there is definitely more to the situation than first meets the eye, and things soon take a dangerous turn. Will he risk everything to protect her? Was the pain he caused her too deep for her to get past? Will they realise that there is a fine line between love and hate, and they never really stopped loving each other – both suffering for the past 5 years? Will they leave with what they came for, or something far more valuable?
Highly recommended reading!!
Can’t wait for book #2!

Thank you, Ms. Whiteaker!
