"Sexy, Sassy, and Southern Suspense at its Best."
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?
From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Larissa Reinhart, the first in the Southern con artist, romantic mystery thriller, the Finley Goodhart Crime Caper series.
"This is as fun a novel as it is moving and at times heart-breaking, 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.

"Immediately engaging. Kept me guessing. Lots of surprises." --The Layaway Dragon
"Once again, Reinhart has managed to spin an intriguing tale." --Christa Reads and Writes
"This is not the first book I've read of Larissa Reinhart, and as always it kept me glued and addicted to the story, trying not to worry too much for our characters." --Varietats
"Action, adventure, intrigue, intellect, and just the right amount of romance. A great debut to a new series - I'm on the hook for more!" - Jenna C, Girl With Book Lungs
"Hang on to your hat and purse and seat as this is a wild ride. As exciting and fast-paced as this long con is for the first half of the book, at almost exactly 50% the game plan changes! " -- Laura's Interests
"It's sexy, sassy, and southern suspense at its best." --Devilishly Delicious Book Reviews
