Ellie Watt is used to starting over. The daughter of a grifting team, Ellie spent her childhood being used as a pawn in her parents' latest scam. Now she’s much older, wiser and ready to give her con artist life a rest. But returning to the dry desert town of Palm Valley, California means one more temptation than she bargained for – Camden McQueen. Once known as the high school weirdo, Camden is bigger and badder than the boy he used to be and a talented tattoo artist with his own thriving business. Ellie’s counting on Camden still being in love with her but what she’s not counting on is how easily unrequited love can turn into obsession over time. When Camden discovers Ellie’s plan to con him, he makes her a deal she doesn’t dare refuse, but her freedom comes with a price and it’s one that takes both Ellie and Camden down a dangerous road.
***********
This book goes from Present tense to past tense - Past tense telling the story of her and Camden then of her and Javier. I can say I kind of hated Ellie she seemed to be upset with people when they did her wrong even know that she wronged them in the first place. Some Hot Steamy Sex. Lots of running & even murder. Some scary stuff that I can't see how Camden & Ellie can get out of. The ending well it wasn't a happy one by any means. I look forward to the Prequel "On Every Street" coming in April as well as book #2 "Shooting Scars" coming summer 2013.
Quotes:
"Palm Valley may look prettier, but it's still a stubborn old lady who won't think twice about running you out of town. And me too."
"I needed to keep my vagina out of the question and focus on what was really important: money."
