"Diamond necklaces, billionaires, Mafia bosses, and student loans-it's all in a day's work for Simi Chopra and her ragtag heist crew in the next romantic-comedy caper from Sara Desai.

After living it up on the reward money, they're back where they started, struggling to pay their bills. So when a Chicago Mafia boss demands they return the jewels-plus interest, or else-they need to get the team back together ... and fast. Unfortunately, Simi soon discovers that the necklace is in the hands of Jack's nemesis, a highly-skilled and supremely vengeful master thief who is not above a little blackmail to get even.
