From the author of KIDNAP.org and Pharma Con comes Book #3 of the Kidnap Capers series. Readers of the series know the lovable misfits who make up the Kidnap Gang: Robin, a former legal secretary; Cam a guy with developmental delays; Hua, a former victim of human trafficking, Tom, a disabled veteran, and Luca, a woman with an “interesting” past. In an earnest desire to right wrongs for the little guys, the Kidnap Gang abducts cheaters, shows them the error of their ways, and releases them with the understanding they’ll become honest citizens. In this third and final story, Robin’s attempt at a simple caper goes wildly wrong when her father appears on the scene and turns her world upside down. Mark Parsons is Robin’s bugaboo, the voice in her head she can’t silence. Though she admits he taught her things that are useful to the gang, that’s no credit to his parenting. He’s the kind of person who would—and did--use his own children to further his money-grubbing schemes. Now Mark has a new con in mind, and he forces Robin to help by threatening Cam’s life. Soon the rest of the gang is sucked into Mark’s web too. Robin is fully aware that her father would sacrifice any of them, even her, to get what he wants, which at the moment is a large chunk of kindly old Harry Robeson’s money. Running the con is the only way Robin can save Cam and maybe…maybe get her whole gang through this. Still, it’s hard when the person you have to outsmart to save the day is your own father.

SUMMER OF LOVE Three best friends from the city are coming home this summer--and temperatures are going to soar. For each, the small lakeside town of Ely holds warm memories of erotic trysts and first crushes, passionate nights and bittersweet heartbreak. Now they are returning to their hometown for the hottest summer of their lives--and three new chances at love. . .

Neither Lily, Ceci, nor Serena knows how the summer will end, but one thing is certain--each will experience a seduction to remember. . .
