Pretty Sly

Pretty Sly is Elisa Ludwig's heart-pounding sequel to Pretty Crooked and the second book in a trilogy perfect for fans of Sarah Mlynowski, Ally Carter, or Sara Shepard.

Willa Fox was ordered to stay out of trouble by a juvenile court judge. But that was before her house was ransacked . . . and her mother went missing. Now Willa and her sexy crush, Aidan, must violate her probation and hit the California highway in search of her mom.

When Willa and Aidan wind up being the focus of a national manhunt, their journey becomes dangerously criminal. Soon Willa realizes it's easier to escape the law than the truth. And everything she thought she knew about her mom—and her life—was wrong.

• On the Run: With the whole nation watching, Willa and Aidan must outsmart the law—and the real criminals hunting them—on a desperate cross-country chase.
• Partners in Crime: Willa is supposed to stay out of trouble, but with her mom missing, she has no choice but to team up with her crush Aidan and break every rule.
• Forced Proximity: Trapped in a stolen car on the California highway, the tension between Willa and Aidan is as dangerous as the manhunt closing in on them.
• A High-Stakes Teen Mystery: The closer Willa gets to the truth about her mother’s disappearance, the more she realizes that uncovering this secret might be the last thing she ever does.

Willa Fox was told to stay out of trouble. In fact, it was an order from a very serious juvenile court judge.

However, that was before Willa found her house ransacked . . . and her mother missing. Since Willa's practically an outcast at school for stealing from the Glitterati, she figures she has nothing keeping her in Paradise Valley. So with the help of her pal Tre, Willa violates her probation and hits the California highway in search of the only person who really cares about her.

Other than fellow outlaw Aidan Murphy, that is. He offered to be Willa's wingman—a sure sign that their one kiss is anything but a fluke. But will Aidan stand by her when their journey turns dangerously criminal and they wind up being the focus of a national manhunt?

Pretty Sly, the sequel to Pretty Crooked, is a wild ride with a thrilling mystery that will make you smile and leave you breathless.
