Pull off legendary heists to steal the world’s most magical treasures, and stay one step ahead of your rivals. What’s hotter: the goods or the guys?
These Thieving Hearts is an interactive high-heat gay romance adventure novel by Raven de Hart. It’s entirely text-based, 280,000 words and hundreds of choices, without graphics or sound effects, and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
You’re one of the world’s most elite thieves, and you’ve stolen more treasures—and hearts—than you can count. You’ll bring every skill there is to your jobs: safe cracking, smooth talking, high-tech hacking, and of course a little strategic flirting. But it’s your knowledge of magic that really puts you among the best of the best, and opens up a whole new array of artifacts to steal and ways to acquire them.
Still, this latest job is extraordinary even for you. A mysterious billionaire has gotten a copy of the Thief’s Demise: a secret list of the most dangerous, most secure targets in the world, all magically defended. Stealing even one of these mystical artifacts can make you a legend.
He wants you to steal all of them.
It’s a madcap dash around the globe, from Scotland to Venice to Lagos, unlocking arcane vaults designed to kill you, pulling off the most audacious series of heists the world has ever seen. Plus, you’re not the only team on the trail of the Thief’s Demise. Your boss’s brother has a crew of his own, and they’re hot on your heels.
Good thing you’re working with the crew of your dreams! Big broad-shouldered Ivan always has a light in his warm brown eyes and a smile just for you—and while he loves a soft hug, he’ll let you ride him hard. Lockpick Eiji has a bright optimism that lights up any room. He’s slim and lithe, and his deft hands can find just the right spot to touch to set you on fire. Rookie Jackson, with his sharp eyes and burnished brown complexion, has hard muscles and a secretly soft heart. He knows more about magic than most veterans—and he knows how to use it in the bedroom, too. Then there’s your billionaire benefactor himself: refined, unflappable Arthur, with his dry humor and sparkling green eyes. Will you be the one to get him to finally let loose—and how hot will things get when he does? Or will you play an even more dangerous game with Cesar, the head of your rival crew? He’s a master art thief with lush wavy black hair, strong muscles, and an appreciation for the finer things in life. With charm and confidence like his, is it any wonder that he likes to be on top?
Soon enough, you and your rivals will draw the attention of the Shattered One, the lost god of thieves, as well as the Cult of Vaults, an ancient mystic order dedicated to protecting the world from the Shattered One. Cult legends say that every theft brings the lost god one step closer to returning to the world. Will you listen to the mysterious voice whispering in your ear?
