Overview

Chloe the Courtesan isn’t sure she’ll ever find love. Roxane the Thief doesn’t know what love is. They could be great together — if Roxane wasn’t lying about everything.

When Roxane makes the deal of her dreams, Chloe becomes the key to her success: charming her is just another step toward stealing a priceless artifact. But Chloe has her own complications — balancing her life as the city’s most sought-after courtesan, a new relationship with Roxane, and the persistent marriage proposal of her best friend.

But the closer Roxane gets, the harder it becomes to separate the con from her growing feelings, and she comes crashing into her own past and a future she never knew she wanted.
