LOVE CAN BE A STEAL . . .

When Phil joins Felborough Botanic Gardens as a volunteer in order to steal the rare Splendid Paradise Orchid, she doesn't bank on falling in love with the hot head gardener's assistant Lily . . .

Phil, never Philippa, is getting to breaking point with her dad and their mounting debts from his gambling addiction. So when best friend and bad-influence Chaz offers a solution to all of her worries, she knows she will do what it takes.

When that solution turns out to be a heist of a rare Orchid due to bloom for the first time in captivity, she obviously thinks he's joking. But Phil's mission is clear: infiltrate the renowned Felborough Botanic Gardens as a volunteer, befriend the employees for intel, and on the big day make it out with the Orchid.

But falling head over heels for Lily, the grumpy head gardener's assistant was not part of the plan, and as the heist approaches, Phil is faced with a dilemma: steal the orchid and break Lily's heart or lose her house to her dad's gambling problem . . .
