Cracker Jack by Asher Ellis

Once upon a time, Jackson Phillips wasn’t just a cab driver. In another life, he went by another name—Cracker Jack, the best safecracker money could buy. That was before Jack met the love of his life, Eve, and her seven-year-old son, Tommy. Vowing to leave his life of crime in the rearview mirror, Jack swore he would never touch a safe ever again. Roads paved with good intentions, however, tend to lead only one place. For when Eve is denied health insurance to cover ailing Tommy's medical expenses, Jack knows his cab driver's salary won't be enough to pay the bills. Enter Damon Gray, Jack's old partner-in-crime, who offers him an opportunity too perfect to refuse: crack into the safe of Richard Kohler, the same insurance magnate who denied Tommy's coverage. But what Jack, Damon, and the rest don't realize, is that Kohler has something other than money locked in his safe… Something never meant to be released… Something with an insatiable hunger.
