Poppy Donovan and her best friend ran several confidence tricks, targeting people they perceived had little to lose. However, one con went awry and Poppy took the fall and served two years in prison.
After being released from prison, Poppy vows to her best friend that she'd lead a life in the straight and narrow; however, fate has another opinion. Upon her release, she finds out that before her death, her grandmother had lost $80,000 of her inheritance to a greedy, low-life financial advisor who has stripped countless other people of their life-savings. To get back at him, she plans one last con before getting clean and moving on.
Everything seems to be going according to plan; when the necklace she plans on selling to end her con is stolen by two highwaymen, who turn out to be white-collar thieves...
Asprey Charles has everything. He has money, a place reserved just for him in his family art appraisal and insurance firm. However, Asprey plans to continue his lavish playboy lifestyle, and along with his siblings, he slips on a mask and cape and takes on the role of a handsome, mocking, white-collar thief—or as he likes to call himself, a highwayman rogue. After all, life is all about fun—and he excels at playing.

Confidence Tricks is one of those books you know for sure you're going to love and enjoy from the first few lines. It's intriguing, funny, and has smart, witty dialogue and great characters, because what's better than a kick-butt heroine and a hilarious hero. It had me smiling and laughing right from the beginning.
