This is the story of Summer and Leo, two young women who are sisters by choice. Each one tells her past and present story in her own words. They also take care of each other. When the novel starts they have been living together for a few years. Their home is the back end of an SUV. Summer, when she was 17, was abandoned by her Mother, who had raised her completely off the grid with no birth information, no surname and no education. She learned to support her self by picking pockets. Leo, when she was a teenager, lost her older sister, a freshman in college, when she was murdered. Leo’s family quickly disintegrated and she took off. When Leo and Summer met, Leo was living on the street and Summer took her in to live in the back of the SUV. They supported themselves by picking pockets and, in Leo’s case, dating and stealing from older men who enjoy the company of 20 something young women. I will not go further into the story because of spoilers but will say it kept me up way later than I planned to read. What happens to them in the present is gripping. Thanks to Net Galley and Bantam Books for an ARC for an honest review.

Wow! I really enjoyed this thriller! Thrillers have bored me to tears lately but this one has such a unique plot. I couldn’t put it down. I loved Summer and Leo’s friendship. The back and forth POV was superbly well done. Summer was approximately a day ahead of Leo at all times and it really made for an interesting read.

Thanks to netgalley, Random House, and the author for the arc! I’ll be reading more by her for sure.

Absolutely fantastic plot! Could not put the book down once I began reading it. Cannot wait for it to be released. Will recommend it to everyone I know!

I loved this book for so many reasons. First, as other reviewers have noted, it's fast-paced from the beginning, and only gets better. I often struggle with multiple perspectives — especially when time jumps are involved — but this is an example of how it is done effectively and in a way that makes every single chapter entrancing. I love anything in the scam genre, but I was unexpectedly moved by how Summer and Leo's love for each other became the main theme. It really added an additional, and essential, layer to this story. While some of the plot lines could have used more explanation or context, overall I LOVED this book and cannot wait to read what the author does next.

This book was so fast paced - I started it in the afternoon and read straight through until midnight, skipping dinner without realizing it. Definitely a page turning thriller! I will say that some parts felt a little unrealistic and the twist was predictable, but it still sucked me in. Haven’t read a book this fast in awhile! Thanks to NetGalley, Wendy Heard, and the publisher for the widget of You Can Trust Me!

Very fast paced! I thoroughly enjoyed this. I really liked to dual POVs and time jumps. The ending felt a little drawn out and the twist was predictable, but it was still a very creative plot and it was a quick page turner, I read this in a day.

This is a one sitting thriller! I was immediately pulled in and next thing I knew I was reading the last page. You will get lost in this story of survival and found family. I loved reading Summer’s and Leo’s POVs equally - there was the perfect balance and the time jumps to their past were well timed with just the right amount of information. Highly recommend this story about the power of female friendships!
