Nothing's free in this world. Innocent Verany is a recent runaway, impossibly stuck between freedom and the girl he loves. During his latest escape attempt, he meets Cinderella Martine, a disgraced noble girl with a penchant for beautiful things and a wicked stepmother who won't let her have them. Their chance encounter sparks a partnership—with her tongue of honey and his sticky fingers, they become as thick as thieves, working the streets of Paris, France as a perfect criminal duo. THREE ITEMS. TWO WEEKS. ONE CHANCE. When The Prince announces a public ball, Innocent knows that it's his chance to get everything he wants—the woman of his dreams and the financial freedom to take care of her. Following the advice of a close friend, Innocent and Cinderella embark on a cross-country road trip to find three special items that will help them get into the palace's treasury undetected.
