"SEXY, SASSY, AND SOUTHERN SUSPENSE AT ITS BEST."
From The Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Larissa Reinhart, the first in the Southern con artist, romantic mystery thriller, the Finley Goodhart Crime Caper series. A 2021 Page Turner Awards winner.
She wants to use her criminal past to catch crooks. He wants her back. In the grift. And in his life. Can Finley Goodhart convince Lex that doing good is the greatest hustle of all?
"This is as fun a novel as it is moving and at times heartbreaking, never the more so when the final page comes and readers are only left wanting more." - Cynthia Chow, King's River Life Magazine
Ex-grifter Finley Goodhart may try to stay on the straight and narrow, but walking that thin line becomes wobbly when she believes her friend Penny was murdered. The last thing she wants is to work with her ex-partner (and ex-boyfriend), the brilliant (brilliantly frustrating) British con artist, Lex Leopold. However, when it appears Penny's demise might be related to an exclusive matchmaking service for millionaires, Fin needs Lex's help to pull a long con to get the goods on Penny.
Romance is in the air for hustlers, gangsters, and their marks. Unfortunately for Fin and Lex, infiltrating the racket doesn't make for a match made in heaven. This Valentine swindle could stop their hearts for good.
