An uncatchable thief. A relentless sheriff. The chase was inevitable… but falling for each other was not. . . Zula, the notorious Blue-Feathered Bard, lives for the thrill of her heists, heedless of the consequences. Her latest job—pilfering priceless treasures from a peaceful troll village—could spark a kingdom-wide conflict, making it her riskiest venture yet. Brimming with confidence, she anticipates nothing but success. What she doesn't expect is Neo. Neo, the kingdom's sheriff, is determined to bring Zula—an uncatchable thief armed with a magical ukulele—to justice.

When a chance encounter brings them together, stirring unexpected emotions, a thrilling chase begins.
