I love Ron the Bomb and her safety is the only thing I care about.

But conning criminals for the better part of ten years brings its own set of problems. Veronica the Bombshell Vaughn has put up with my crap for years and where has it gotten her? A big fat nowhere.

Veronica is done sitting at home, pining over a man she can't have. She's tired of being ignored and she's coming out swinging. Now there's another man in town with his eye on her. He's got secrets too, and he's more than willing to share.

She's ready to jump ship unless I make a grand gesture and declare my love for her.

And I can't do it.

If anyone finds out how much I love this woman, her life will be in danger.

But I can't not do it, either. I'll lose her for good if I don't make my move.

And if lose her, I lose everything.

The entire Rook and Ronin series comes full circle. Every con, every lie, and every skeleton in the closet is back for one final shot at vengeance.
