About this ebook

New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey presents a powerful novel about grifters and con artists, brothers and sisters, looking for love and making ends meet—on the wrong side of the law....

Dante black did his stretch of hard time in juvenile jail. Now he's out...and down. Facing a mountain of unpaid bills, a car on its last legs, and imminent eviction, he doesn't stand a chance with Pam, a sexy waitress/actress on the hunt for a man with means. Enter Scamz, a slick brother from Dante's past cruising L.A. in custom-tailored suits and a Benz CL600. He's got a job that'll put Dante back on top—especially with Pam. Seduced by easy money, she's finding Dante suddenly irresistible. But then the perfect sting goes horribly wrong, and a dangerous game is just beginning.

Thieves Paradise, my first EDJ experience. Loved it! I've read almost every single book he's published. Love the depth of his characters and how he incorporates them from main to background. Wonderful book from a amazing author.

The grittiness, Dante and Scamz's characters--these are why I've read my original paperback copy until it has literally fallen apart. This is they type of book in which EJD really shines.

At first I wasn't feeling the characters, but once the story progressed, I grew to like them. Overall, good read.
