Lacey Olson needs to get out of Las Vegas right now, thanks to her no-good, crooked brother. When a handsome stranger who’s out partying with friends comes to her rescue in the cocktail lounge where she works, they strike up a conversation that leads to a crazy plan: her leaving with Théo for L.A. tomorrow. A few drinks later, the idea gets even crazier: a quickie marriage that works for both of them.
But back in California, Lacey immediately turns Théo’s precise, well-ordered life into one big beach party. And before long, she’s tempting him with her smart mouth, sexy body, and sunny charm. The last thing Théo needs is a real relationship to distract him. Because he only plays to win. . . .
PAT'S REVIEW
| In this new series from Kelly Jamison. The story opens with Theo Wynn who is the assistant general manager with the Las Vegas Hockey team listening to an offer from his grandfather to run his team in California. Days later he has decided to take the job and with some of the guys from the team, they are at a bar celebrating his promotion where he meets Lacey. She starts off as the table’s server and within an hour or two she has lost her job because her brother owes some guys money, loss of it. He is attracted to her and brings her to their table and they begin to hang out and hours later after a dip in the pool and more drinking. They are at the wedding chapel getting married. His plan is for her to go with him to California and this was his way of making it work. This would be the beginning of his not normal taking time to run the numbers and see all of the possibilities. After another mad dash from the bad guys and of course an unexpected stop that was not part of his plan they make it to California. This begins their getting to know each other as well as her getting to know his family which is beyond dysfunctional. What ends up happening for him is that everyone likes her including his family. So when he screws everything up and he realizes it was not for show he must now think outside of the box and find her to hopefully get her back. This is a very good book with many good characters and a lot going on but it all works for this book. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 5 stars.
