Dante Vianelli and Cully Cromwell have been in love since college, when Dante saved Cully from the world’s worst roommate and introduced him to his friends. Seven years later, they’re still roommates and they’re still in love… but they’ve never become lovers. Now a catastrophic spell gone wrong has cut them off from their coven. Wandering their suburban prison alone, separated by the walls of their own minds and gaps in the space-time continuum, Cully and Dante are as stuck as they have been for the past seven years. And they’ll remain lost in their memories—unless they confront the truths that kept them from taking the step from friends to lovers and trust their friends and coven to get them out. But it’s easier said than done. Those walls didn’t build themselves. Dante’s great at denial, and Cully’s short on trust. Can they do the work it will take to get into each other’s arms and back to the sunlight where they belong?

Vor langer, langer Zeit wurde Felix Salinger bei seinem ersten Taschendiebstahl erwischt, und Danny Mitchell half ihm zu entkommen. Die beiden waren unzertrennlich ... bis sie sich trennten. Zwanzig Jahre nach dieser ersten Begegnung kehrt Danny nach Chicago zurück, in die Stadt, in der er mit Felix und ihrer perfekten Familie gelebt hat, um ihn erneut zu retten. Felix' Nachrichtensender - der schuld an ihrer Trennung war - steht durch eine skrupellose Mitarbeiterin, die schwere Anschuldigungen gegen Felix erhebt, unter Beschuss. Eine offizielle Untersuchung könnte ihr Kartenhaus zum Einsturz bringen. Der einzige Weg, Felix' Unschuld zu beweisen, besteht darin, ihren bisher größten Betrug durchzuführen. Doch obwohl Felix sein Talent für Gaunereien nicht verloren hat, ist das Wiedersehen mit Danny bittersüß. Ihre zehnjährige Trennung hat in beiden Herzen Löcher hinterlassen, die keine noch so große Diebesbeute füllen kann. Eine Gruppe junger, unerfahrener Diebe steht ihnen zur Seite, während sie mit alten Juwelen handeln und gegen neue Bedrohungen kämpfen, um den perfekten Raub durchzuziehen. Die schwierigste Aufgabe wird allerdings sein, zu beweisen, dass die Liebe das einzig Wertvolle ist, das sie je besessen haben.
