Sure, she’ll make a deal with him. She'll even help him. But she won’t enjoy it. And if sparks start to fly? Well, she has other things to worry about.

Being the eldest daughter of criminals is all fun and games until you’re dragged kicking and screaming into their mess. Especially when the person doing the dragging is the brother of a missing FBI agent, and it all points to her family. That’s truly just her luck.
