Grift

By Lynette DeVries

Jade thought her act had everyone fooled.
She was dead wrong.

Word of mouth—and a talent for acting—has made Jade Fortuna the most sought-after medium in Venice Beach. Business is booming until she meets the one person who can see through her act—a boardwalk busker named Charlie, whose unique gift has earned him a following of his own.

Jade and Charlie have nothing in common—she peddles lies and he can't help but see the truth—but neither of them can deny the attraction simmering between them. Then tragedy strikes, and Jade finds herself entangled in a web of lies she created.

Is Jade and everyone she wronged doomed to spend an eternity in limbo? Or will Charlie help her uncover the truth and find the courage to set everyone free?
