Evelyn Moor is a master at mischief. With an IQ of 130, she is good at what she does. Having spent the last 5 years of her life gaining the notorious nickname Midnight Mist, she has been on the US's Most Wanted list for a fourth of her life. When her latest heist is sabotaged by the one person she trusted, she must now face the music for what she's done. But instead of the police tossing her in jail and throwing away the key, she is offered an ultimatum she can't refuse: use her criminal mastermind to protect Aden Williams, the son of the United States's President, or face the death penalty. Tensions run high when she starts to get to know the US Marshall who was unlucky enough to get assigned as her overseer and the too-hot-for-his-own-good boy she was meant to protect.
Will Evelyn stick around just long enough to earn her freedom? Or will outside powers force her to change plans before her (and her heart) are injured beyond recompense?
What will Evelyn do when all else fails...?

"Listen, I do and it isn't him", he yelled this time and I stopped walking, angrily turning to him. Can he stop just pissing me off even more? "Oh yeah? And how are you so sure?"
