IT TAKES MOXIE by Delia DeLeest

In the midst of the roaring twenties, Moxie Hamilton is a ditzy red head whose thug of a fiancé instructs her to steal a ceramic cat full of diamonds from her mob-connected step-father. She’s supposed to kidnap a little old lady to drive her to the train station, but instead she pulls her gun on Ben Kincaid. Together they travel cross country from Florida to Chicago leaving a path of chaos in their wake.

Cute, light, and amusing, I found Delia DeLeest’s It Takes Moxie to be a quick, fun read.
