Plan ahead, work hard, play by the rules, and you'll be justly rewarded. The maxims that had been drummed into Darcy Morgan were the backbone of her orderly life. But as she stumbled down the streets of Brooklyn--bruised, battered, and beaten--she began to think she'd been led astray. It didn't do a damn bit of good to play by the rules if the other guys had the game rigged. Darcy wouldn't survive the night if she didn't find shelter. A chance meeting with a kind-hearted woman could pluck her from the fire just in time. But pulling an innocent into her suddenly tumultuous world was wrong. Thoroughly, unquestionably wrong. But right and wrong didn't seem as clear as they'd always been. The keystones of her life had been shattered, forcing her to care only about survival--her own.

That last sentence pretty much sums up the premise of every other lesfic romance. What makes this book stand out is the execution. And I don't mean the main plot point of the two ladies being on the run from the mob and the police. Granted, it's a smart page-turning plot device to liven up this book, and just realistic enough to be plausible, for the most part. But things are just a little too pat and convenient
In much of the book, the two girls are stuck in close quarters. Rather than bore the hell out of this angst/action-junkie, the author managed to keep my interest in their daily goings-on and their interactions with sparkling dialogue, well-thought out scenes, and the occasional heart-thumping mob encounter. There were some confusing POV changes and character thoughts, but nothing a careful re-read won't solve.
