  A team of con artists travel the country, marrying rich, unsought women, only to clean them out on their wedding night. The only problem is their last mark's father happens to be a secret underworld kingpin now bent on avenging his homely daughter's broken heart. 
  After Angie Robertson's new husband disappears with over $200,000 in wedding gifts and a brand new 911 Porsche convertible, her gangster father makes it his mission to seek retribution. Alongside him is Angie's brother and heir to the Robertson empire, Sebastian, who, like his father, is eager to enact a swift revenge. 
  Meanwhile, the missing groom and his team of con artists speed along the southwestern coast, searching for the next town and rich, lonely girl they could scam out of a couple hundred grand. 
  The Wedding Bandits have been doing this for years, and they've only gotten better with time. 
  Settling in the small town of Oak County, the team starts their usual routine of finding a mark. The new target is the daughter of the town Sheriff, a sage man who came into substantial wealth in years past for an act of heroism. Unbeknownst to the bandits, as they plot and scheme a way to separate the Sheriff from his millions, Angie's brother and father have been tracking their movements, inching closer each day to their coveted vengeance. 
  And yet, despite all the secrets and malicious behavior, love manages to bud between the bandits' dauntless leader and the Sheriff's homely daughter. It seems like Cupid may have finally caught up to the traveling hustler.  
  Unfortunately, so have the FBI… 
  The mission becomes a ticking time bomb that ends in abduction, heartbreak, and murder. And the person you least expect may be the one to squeeze the trigger.

  I Wouldn't Do That If I Were Me...

  The Wall Street Journal columnist and bestselling author of Little Victories takes a humorous and insightful look at life in the face of overwhelming societal change that we never anticipated—from the effects on parenthood, marriage, friendship, work, and play to all other aspects of the strange lives we find ourselves living. Like many of us, Jason Gay didn’t see this coming: a reshaped world, on edge, often stuck at home, questioning everything, trying to navigate a digital landscape that changes how we think, parent, coach, and live. With a series of topical and interconnected personal pieces, Gay comically takes on this new state of being, looking for the optimism and joy in the face of discouragement. He embarks on a rowdy ride with his son to the Daytona 500, weeks before lockdown. He confides his hilariously banal texts with his wife. He allows his mom to kidnap the family cat. From the modest thrills of Little League parenting to reckoning with the impending death of a close friend, Gay's essays run the gamut of modern life and he approaches it all with humility, grace, and more than a few laughs.
