Fun and quick read about a tough woman (with an amazing father), a con man and an amusing driver named Willie. I will read the next in the series.

If you want to read this to see how to pull off the almost perfect con, this you'll enjoy this book. If you are looking for chemistry and action like you see in the Plum books, well, you're going to be disappointed. However, I'm sticking with the series and am on the wait list for "The Chase."

I really enjoyed this book! I'm a huge fan of Janet Evanovich and her quirky leads but, I do think sometimes they get a little out of control. In this case, I thought the characters, while still with their quirks, really worked well in this book. They almost seemed toned down a bit.

I thought the story adventure was awesome. Of course, I'm a huge fan of media about con-men. Plus, a kick ass female lead... yeah, I enjoyed this.

I also liked the narrator's voice and they way he voiced this.

I am definitely looking forward to the sequel.
