Summary

Undercover cop Dan Hudson is framed for blackmail and kicked off the NOPD force. Enraged about that, and the fact that his lover refuses to stand by him, Dan moves to Denver, where he becomes Dirk Steele. He finds a job working for the Powells, who are pawnbrokers ... and fences.


When he proposes to them that he put together a team to steal on demand for the Powells' less than legitimate clients, a deal is struck and the team is formed. The team consists of Maverick, a thief; Tripp, a street kid who shoplifts to survive; and Fey, another street kid who is an excellent pickpocket and petty thief.


Now the question becomes, will the team succeed? And, equally important, will the attraction between Dirk, who has sworn off love, and Maverick -- whose credo is only down and dirty sex -- grow into something more? Or will they remain just 'friends with benefits'?


Time will tell as the team takes on increasingly difficult jobs and a man from Dirk's past shows up who could possibly throw a monkey wrench into the works.

    Author Avery Brooks returns to the steamy city of New Orleans with a smart and sexy sapphic romance that asks, "Can workplace rivals fall in love and find a happily ever after?" 
    Drea Cordeira likes to have fun. She has quite the reputation for it, having slept with most of the queer women of New Orleans. But behind the humor, charm, and sexy drawl, there's a lot more to Drea, and she's not too keen on sharing it. 
    Organized, reliable Cassie Sullivan has learned to be resilient through a lifetime of loss. She longs for a stable, loving relationship and someone she can count on, not a one-night stand, and definitely not with her new coworker, Drea. 
    In the office and under the hot lights of the dance floor, Drea and Cassie's competitive spirits collide, unearthing a sexy tension and healthy dose of witty banter. 
    As their connection deepens, threatening the safety of the worlds they've carefully crafted, Drea and Cassie must both decide if the risk of revealing their true selves and taking a shot at a love greater than either of them could have imagined outweighs the pain of their pasts and the potential for rejection.
