Book details:

Author: Sylvain Reynard

Title: The Man In The Black Suit

Format: digital

Language: English

Pages: 404

Acacia Santos excels at her job as concierge at the prestigious Hotel Victoire in Paris. When her superior, Marcel, is attacked in a supposed random mugging, she is tasked with serving one of the hotel’s most mysterious and attractive guests.

Nicholas Cassirer checks into the hotel under an assumed name every three months. Usually, he stays in the penthouse suite with a beautiful female companion but on this occasion, he arrives alone and is displeased in having to deal with someone new. A match of wits ensues as he tests Acacia’s expertise with a series of almost impossible demands. Her intelligence and creativity rise to the challenge, earning his respect.

They strike a tenuous accord until Acacia discovers a famous stolen painting in his suite, she contacts a former boyfriend who works for the elite BRB, a unit of French law enforcement that deals with art thefts.

Nicholas is questioned by police and released when it is revealed the painting is a reproduction. Irked with her behavior, Acacia’s supervisor demotes her threatening dismissal and the cancellation of her work permit.

But Acacia has already attracted Nicholas’s attention. Remorseful that she may lose her job on his account, he offers her a choice – she can wait until her supervisor dismisses her, or she can leave the city of lights behind and become his personal assistant.

Acacia initially refuses his offer, but Nicholas is persistent. He reveals himself as a man who quietly acquires stolen art in order to restore it to its rightful owners. Faced with mounting familial debts and the possibility of dismissal and deportation, she agrees to work for him.

Nicholas opens up a whole new world of beauty and intrigue to Acacia as they travel the globe. Soon the line between employer and assistant is blurred, and the two lonely people embark on a passionate relationship.

I’m really excited about this story, it’s full of mistery, like the author himself.

So, we have, Acacia, a Brazilian girl who lives in France, she loves a quiet life, she works at an Hotel as concierge and she is proud of her job, and everuthing is good but Acacia’s quiet life doesn’t is like what it seems.

But anyways, then we have, the enigmatic, an actual Robin Hood of art, Nicholas Cassirer, a man full of mistery and with a closed full of black suits too.

Their chemistry is not there in the first second, it burns slowly. Sylvain Reynard knows how to keep you want more when we talk about his love stories, I don’t know how he do it!

Please SR give me your secrets.

Acacia is like his others heroines, strong, with a lot of civic moral and independent, the kind of "i want to be like her" or "i'm like her"

Nicholas is… like damn… Sorry Professor, sorry Prince, but you have competiton here. Elegant, protector, an equal partner.

This story, like his others books, is not just romance and goodbye; it’s full of culture, art, knowledge and everything you need to keep reading, like action. You know, the things that are important in life.

Told in 3rd person, like all his books, the way is told is amazing as usual, really good to read.

I really enjoyed this story, it’s amazing to me, hope you decide to read it, or any other book of Sylvain Reynard.

Of course, I gave 5 stars to this book in my Goodreads page, and a space in my favourites’ shelf.

Hope you guys enjoy it!
