A Good Excuse To Be Bad

Smart, gorgeous, and too tough for her own good, bail recovery agent and single mom Evangeline Crawford moved to the burbs for a quiet life. Fortunately, it's not turning out that way. . .

Angel spent years digging up the dirt on some of the South's most grimy players. But after a scandal gets too hot, she officially takes a break from investigating. Unofficially, she's up to much more: luring bad boys into handcuffs so she can collect a bounty. Business is good and the money is rolling in until a job gone wrong at an Atlanta nightclub kicks off a run of bad luck that puts Angel, and her family, on the wrong side of the law. . . .
