Who decides to marry their fiancée on Halloween night? In Vegas? At a thriller convention? Carly Caldecott does. Why? Because she's a partygirl and an heiress. She thinks it will be atmospheric. It will be a great party story. It will look picture perfect on Facebook. But as the organ music rings through the chapel and the costumed attendees stare her down, Carly feels like a caged animal. She runs. Risk-averse Jane Torres has just learned her life savings have irretrievably vanished when Carly barrels into her cleaning closet hideout. Jane has been dreaming of a life away from her job as a maid at the Masquerade Hotel and away from Vegas, a future that has just become much less likely with no money in the bank.

But money is never free, and the arrangement causes Jane to question who she is and what she believes. When she starts falling for Carly, her life goes from stuck to impossible. Carly is way out of her league. And the potential life of freedom she shows Jane prompts terrifying questions. As her dreams come close to becoming reality, Jane must confront her fear of the unknown. Will it destroy her? Is it worth the risk? Will Jane take the leap? Find out in The Longshot.
