Thanks to Netgalley for my ARC. At first, I thought it was going to be heist story (kinda like Ocean's 11) & I was really into it. BUT then I hit the murder and it all just seemed to easy to figure out.

I love a good YA novel, good plot, nothing heavy or too romantic. Unless you have suspended beliefs, this one is a little too far fetched and unbelievable for me.

I don't know what's more unbelievable, a teenager helping her (incapacitated) mom with a jewelry heist, her former step dad showing up bc he's already conning the mark, her incarcerated father showing up, or the lengths someone would go to go cover their own butt.

I know, I know, it's fiction, it's not supposed to be completely believable.. but hear me out.. having all the toppings on your I've cream doesn't make it better, it makes it confusing and hard to digest.

Now, thank goodness that the author has a great writing style, that's easy to get into and easy to enjoy. I have read a few of her books, but this one was just too much for me

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This author never disappoints, and this book is no exception. As fast paced, and as engaging as all of her other books, this book takes us on a jewelry heist, gone so very wrong with so many twists and turns it is impossible to know what is coming next! Kat has a pass that she would rather forget and she and her mother have spent a lot of time trying to outrun the bad things that have happened to them, they both think that they’re finally going to be free after just one more job, but it’s never that easy. All of the characters in this book are likable for different reasons, except, of course, for the ones that you shouldn’t like lol. I loved all of their relationships and spent the majority of the time just wanting them all to win and to have happiness that I thought they deserved. I read this book in a day it was fantastic and I can’t wait to bring it into my classroom..
