What Happens In Vegas. . .
High-stakes action and even hotter men are all Jade Christian wants now that her scheming boyfriend has aced her out of his bed and their successful company. But her Vegas weekend spree has turned into several nights of steamy commitment-free hookups with easygoing businessman James Goings--and he's becoming the one bet she can't resist . . .
Is Just The Beginning. . .
Growing up in the shadow of his famous athlete brother taught James that focusing on his career was far safer than trusting beautiful women. His sizzling encounters with Jade could almost change his mind . . . if he wasn't afraid she'd use him for revenge on her ex. But the more he sees of the real, down-to-earth woman behind the seductress, the more James will risk to win her love for a lifetime. . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Hodges (More than He Can Handle) gambles that hot sex scenes will make up for a predictable story, but her bet doesn't pay off. After being unceremoniously dumped and bilked out of thousands by her slimy restaurateur fianc , Jade Christian takes an uncharacteristically reckless trip to Las Vegas. James George thinks women just want to use him to get to his NFL star brother, so when he bumps into Jade in a hotel, neither is prepared for their instant and genuine attraction. Though the sex sizzles, he's put off by her lust for revenge against her ex, and their friends and families are skeptical. Too obvious coincidences make the main conflict predictable and uninteresting, and side characters border on stereotypical. Hodges does score, however, on illustrating that taking a chance on love is not always a bad thing.
