She talks to a soda can. He talks to crime bosses. Somehow, it works.
Vincent Moretti has it all-wealth, charm, and a blood-soaked family empire that practically runs the city. But when his sleek car breaks down in the worst part of town, he stumbles across something he never expected: a sarcastic, dumpster-dwelling girl arguing with a dented Sprite can.
Meet Penny. She's broke, barefoot, and bold as hell. With nothing but her wit, her trash kingdom, and her emotionally supportive soda can, she's managed to survive the city's cold shoulder-and she's not looking for a handout from some designer-suit-wearing, mafia prince with a God complex.
But Vincent keeps coming back. For the banter. For the burgers. For the way she sees straight through him like no one else ever has.
As their worlds collide in a whirlwind of gunfire, glitter, and greasy tacos, Vincent and Penny must figure out if love can grow between danger and dumpsters-and if a mafia heir and a girl from the gutter can write their own kind of fairy tale.
