    About this ebook

    Del's a small-time crook with a moral conscience—robbing convenience stores only for tuition and academic expenses.

    Brash and sassy Louise goes from being a holdup victim to Del's lover and accomplice.

    All they want is a fresh start, an honest life, and a chance to build a family together, but fate conspires to put ever-steeper challenges in their path—and escalating temptations, too.

    A real estate scam in recession-blighted Southern California. A wine heist in Napa Valley. A Vegas wedding chapel holdup. A kidnapping in an oil-rich North Dakota boomtown.

    Can Del and Louise stay on the right side of the law? On one another’s good side?

    And when they head back to Louise’s hometown in North Carolina, what new trouble will prove the biggest: Louise’s nagging mama or a hidden adversary seemingly intent on tearing the couple apart? Or could those be one and the same?

    From screwball comedy to domestic drama, and from caper tale to traditional whodunit, these six stories offer suspense with a side of romance—and a little something for all tastes.
