Olivia Vignes (aka "The Comeback Kid") has been on the run from the Davenport, Iowa, city library for "borrowing" a copy of the latest Danielle Steele novel that she's been trying to finish since 1997. She has a goldfish named "goldfish" that's really a beta fish, but she's too nice for anyone to tell her otherwise. We let all this slide because of her fantastic smile, calm demeanor, love for children, and her proclivity for puns.
