Publisher Description:

A widow robbed of her joy once again. A prolific cop whose world comes crashing down. And two young lovers left to choose between love and freedom. Will they ever get their happy endings?

"9-1-1, what's your emergency?"
“I’ve been robbed! My Christmas was stolen…AGAIN.”

It’s been three years since the love of Ellie’s 72-year-long life passed on the 5th of December. Now, she celebrates Christmas on the same day, determined to take her life and joy back. But her anticipation for a new beginning screeches to a halt, as the packages — the symbols of her new hope and excitement — get taken by porch bandits in the night.

Detective Skyler takes on Ellie’s complaint. His eagerness to join friends in a new detective agency is marred by the NYPD’s sudden rules on retirement. He badly needs a win.

Lucia, much like other millennials, seeks the lightness of independence. But, as she learns, life and love can get in the way. Her visit with Ellie, her grandmother, turns into a predicament as she starts to fall for the quirky Earl. Now, her future path becomes blurry thanks to her new rosy point of view.

Three people struggle to navigate the bubbling tussles of their respective lives. Each walking separate paths and, yet, so deeply intertwined. Love and life have a way of connecting people. But “Heist,” a modern mystery filled with suspense and romance, gives a captivating twist into just how fate and the heart force people to merge and diverge without them being the wiser.

Follow along with their adventures and be surprised as you laugh, cry, and mourn with these characters.
