She's a thief. She's a tavern keeper. In a city of shadows, can they risk trusting each other—or falling in love?
Kit Harper has spent her life slipping through the cracks, a skilled pickpocket who survives by her wits and quick fingers. But when she steals from the wrong woman—Maggie O'Connell, a formidable Irish tavern owner with a sharp gaze and a sharper temper—Kit finds herself facing an unexpected proposition: work at The Rusty Crown to repay her debt or risk the consequences.
Maggie runs her tavern with iron will and little patience for trouble. She has no time for thieves, let alone one as infuriatingly charming as Kit. Yet as tensions rise in the backstreets of London, and Kit's past comes knocking, their uneasy truce turns into something deeper, something neither of them can afford.
But danger lurks in every alley. Kit's former crew wants her skills for one last, risky heist, and the city watch is tightening its grip on the underworld. When betrayal threatens the fragile trust between them, Kit and Maggie must decide: stand together or lose everything.
A steamy, slow-burn lesbian romance perfect for fans of KJ Charles, Sarah Waters, and historical intrigue with a dash of crime and passion.
