'Woman who is already in relationship hears a man's voice on radio and travels across country to follow him and his small child around.'
Would make a much better thriller. She should have thrown him off the empire state building.

This is the second book in this series by this author. This is a romantic thriller read, which will keep you hooked till the last page. This story is full of angst, mystery and love. Amazing characters, which you just like from the first page. I can't wait to read more from this amazing author in the future.
Highly recommended

Awix (3310 KP) rated The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) in Movies
May 10, 2020
Romantic thriller remake. A daring robbery from a New York museum leads the police and an insurance investigator to suspect insanely wealthy and clever tycoon Thomas Crown, but can the investigator keep her mind on the job when the sparks start a-fizzing between her and the suspect?
The world is made up of people who prefer the Steve McQueen version and those who like this one (and I suppose there are conceivably a few folk who've seen neither): I am in the Brosnan camp, although this film does kind of miss the point that Crown only steals for the fun of it in the original (Brosnan's character clearly appreciates art). Much more of a romantic drama than an actual thriller, but well played and engaging, and the set pieces, when they eventually come, are clever and well-staged. As a chance for Brosnan (then at the apogee of his Bond success) to show his range, it's a qualified success (Crown is another suave, high-living thrill seeker with possible commitment issues), but as a piece of entertainment it does the job.
