Cutting Loose by Samantha Westlake

“Have you ever thought about just walking away from your entire life? Leave it all behind and drive to a new place where no one knows you? I did it.”

When Alice Melton escapes – fleeing her old and unfulfilled life, her dominating mother and controlling family – she doesn’t know what she wants to find. Only that she wants to get away.
Her plans soon derail, leaving her broke in a strange town. Alice falls in with Sawyer, a charismatic con man claiming to be on the up-and-up – but he’s got his eye on a new score, and he’s determined to pull Alice into his schemes.
With an FBI agent named Eastman drawing uncomfortably close, finding herself pulled deeper into Sawyer’s criminality, Alice needs to make a choice. She can keep running – or she can make a choice to run towards her dream, not away.
