When Francesca Witting comes to Las Vegas in search of her runaway sister Autumn, she meets an ex-marine named Luke who is consumed with his work investigating a scam in the hotel's casino. Luke also makes it clear that he wants a family without the claustrophobia of marriage and a wife, and is in the process of adopting a child on his own. When Francesca eventually tracks down her sister, she teams that there's an unexpected connection between Autumn and Luke. Francesca finds Las Vegas is about dreaming big -- and despite everything, finding love with Luke is the biggest dream she has.

An interesting read...,
By Frosty the Snowman (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Street Smart (Mira) (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was actually quite interesting. The characters were smart and strong. They had all gone through so much and really seem to complete each other. It was a fun read but also an educational one.
Francesca saw her life crumbling and went to find her runaway sister in Las Vegas. She can hide her pain from everyone but in the process of looking for her sister finds a man she learns to trust with her heart. Luke has problems of his own with an overly-emotional mother whose mental condition has no cure. He is trying to adopt a child but it always seems to fall through. Meanwhile, a gambling scam is threatening the casino he's head of security at and his boss (and godfather) is on his case about it. Autumn, the runaway sister, escaped the abuse she and Francesca faced from home, but has found that life in Las Vegas is not the picnic she'd hoped it would be. So, she finds herself involved with a group of powerful people who won't just let her leave. When the 3 meet in Vegas it is a fateful encounter with romance and adventure and enough twists to keep you guessing. I would definitely recommend this book!
