For most kids, stealing ice-cream from the freezer, or cookies from the cookie jar are the only areas in which they become 'professional' thieves. However Sara Robert's family have been professionals for generations - when she was a kid, rather than stealing ice cream from the freezer, she was taking diamonds from a safe. Her family is full of skilled thieves, tricksters, and hackers, being paid to steal things for other people whilst being careful not to be caught. However despite being a professional thief, Sara gets something of hers stolen, and realises the next day that she has risked exposing both herself, and her family. She knows it would be safer to fix her mess, cover her tracks, and leave it at that, but she will never be able to let the guy who stole her first kiss live in peace. And what he doesn't know is Sara is not a girl you want to get on the wrong side of.
