"Is it any wonder I became a bank robber?" But she never dreamed
she'd fall in love . . . Wealthy high school student Robin McArthur
thinks she has it all figured out when it comes to bilking her
work-a-holic dad for guilt money as a substitute for his genuine
affection. Until one day he suffers a stroke at his law office, and
she learns the brutal truth- They're broke. Her stepmom has skipped
the country. And everyone from bankers to bookies has lined up in
her dad's hospital room to collect on the millions he's racked up
in debt. Panicked and desperate, Robin figures she has two choices:
either surrender to the pestering caseworker and live in a skanky
foster home, or take a chance and sneak her dad out of the hospital
to make a run for it. Little does she know that stealing a car and
hitting the road means that before the day is through, she will rob
her first bank. Now an outlaw, Robin finds a backwoods trailer park
to hide her dad from authorities where she encounters Creek, a
bad-boy in crime who first steals her money and then steals her
heart. The two of them embark on a round of increasingly dangerous
heists to provide for their motley trailer park neighbors. But what
Robin hadn't counted on is the way these hardscrabble people begin
to embrace her and become the first real family she's ever known.
And along the way, worldly-wise Creek teaches her how to develop a
genuine relationship with her dad based on the hard truths of their
lives instead of his past lies. As Robin and Creek's criminal
journey forces them to make gut-wrenching choices, they soon begin
to discover that people are more precious than pocketbooks, and
true love means opening your heart to the kinds of treasures money
can't buy.
