The video on her website reels you in and it's a fantasy ride from there....As self-professed non reader, I must say that I finished this book in less than a week. This speaks volume for me as I love everything for at least 5 minutes. It would've taken me less, but work prevailed. Karyn's conversational style writing keeps you turning the pages as you feel you're right there with these women. This is much better than being a "fly on the wall". The fantasy allows you to enter into a world that is not openly talked about...til now. Hurray for a fun-filled fantasy ride that is an easy read, expertly written and funny. I can see book clubs 'latching' on to this book and having the best conversations....I'd like to be a fly on their walls. Additionally, Karyn has managed to attract a new client...the non reader such as myself. You go girl!

This book is very sexy, exciting and has lots of drama. It also shows men that women have the same fantasies and conversations we have when men get together. I read it in two days and think it would be a dramtic movie. The trailer was smart marketing and it gives you a good lead in for what's to come in the book. I recommend it highly.

I had the opportunity to meet the author and I have to say she is a very pleasant woman. Her fun-spirited personality is what convinced me to purchase this book. I was not disappointed. From the first page I was hooked and drawn in to the world of these four adventurous ladies. I will definitely be picking up her next book.

What Happens In Vegas sure didn't stay in Vegas and in turn many lives were damaged. Living out fantasies without thinking will surely bring heartbreaking consequences. I wouldn't want my husband 2 feel the deceit of the betrayals given in this story, but everyone played a roll somehow....these women were thoughtless and very much so careless in their actions. Nothing stays hidden without resurfacing sooner or later. I enjoyed this read....put urself in the shoes of both the men and women in this story...how would ur outcome end?? 4 Stars...lesson learned, dont be foolish.

Each year Gina, Kellie, Stacey and Michele, four friends who met in college, take time out of their busy lives to vacation together. This year they are vacationing with a twist; they plan to live out their erotic fantasy. The destination is Las Vegas and the plan is to leave all inhibitions behind. Gina is a housewife, who is married to a very wealthy stockbroker. She and her husband have a solid marriage, but she can't pass up her desire to engage in a threesome. Kellie, the wife of a police officer, is tired of the control he has over her. She plans to express her independence as a call girl. Stacey is engaged to be married and her last hoorah before tying the knot is to dance naked in front of strangers at a private party. Michele, the single one in the bunch, has a similar fantasy to strip but she wants to do it on stage at an exclusive club. The friends live out their fantasies that weekend with no thought their secrets will follow them back home.

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS STAYS IN VEGAS was written purely for entertainment purposes and boy, was I entertained. The dramatic antics of these ladies kept me flipping the pages. The book was very well-written and the fully developed plot drove the story line. While each lady lived out her fantasy in Vegas, they soon learned there are consequences of your actions and some have life changing effects. Kudos to Ms. Grice and I look forward to reading more from her.

This is the adventurous story of four friends and an unforgettable journey. Every year the ladies vacation together to catch up on old times and new events. This time, they have decided to forego their normal plans and spend the week fulfilling their personal fantasies. Disregarding all aspects of their real lives, each woman remains true to the pact. In this book, the author explores not only the depth of friendship, but the consequences of both honesty and betrayal.

I was immediately anxious to share the experience of these four friends in Las Vegas because each of these characters was believable and their stories were realistic. These could have very well been four of my girlfriends. As the details of each woman's relationship were revealed, it became evident why she felt the need to turn a fantasy into reality. The author wasted no time with the enactment of each fantasy, and the book became more intriguing as the consequences of those actions began to unfold. Because I could identify with these women, and the story was so well written, it was easy to follow along as each woman experienced their personal drama resulting from their fantasy weekend. Through the details provided in the book I was able to imagine a relationship with each of these women. For that reason, as their stories played out, I felt as though I too, was on an emotional rollercoaster. I could even foresee the fairytale ending that each woman would have, despite her recent drama. With each character's life, drama, and consequences being so realistic, this book was a very smooth read. And although smooth, the story came with unexpected twists, turns, and secrets that kept you turning the pages and anxious for the next event to unfold. To my dismay, I am not the psychic that I thought I was as some of the endings were unexpected. But the read was definitely worth it.

Sin City is called Sin City for a reason. Girlfriends Kellie, Michele, Gina and Stacey have chosen Las Vegas as the destination to live out their fantasies. Away from their husbands and significant others anything goes as what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Or does it? The four friends quickly find there are consequences to their actions.

In her publishing debut, "What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas," Karyn Grice exhibits a creative spark of her own with the old adage. Delving into secrets, love, lust, betrayal and forgiveness, it maintains a healthy dose of drama, executed with good pacing. I didn't want to close the book for fear of missing something.

Fresh, creative and entertaining, "What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas" was a rewarding read. Easily recommendable. Karyn Grice is on my radar as an author to watch for.

The saying goes don't judge a book by it's cover, well, I can honestly say that I'm glad I went ahead and was led by the title of such sinful promise!

This book hooks you from the beginning with the Girls on a mission to sin city, what else WOULD you do in Vegas? Play bingo? peshaw to the stuffies! The author does an exquisite job at bringing these vivid fantasies to the readers mind with an excellent prose that puts you right there with them, LIVING them along with the characters. I love when I am able to read a book that can trance me quickly with the story line and this author hooks you from beginning to end with her style! I am anxiously awaiting her next book, cannot wait!...Boys can play but girls can play harder, read on girls! you won't be disappointed..

I have seen it all in this book and am loving every word of it. This author had the courage to dare to think and write what so many of us have only thought, let alone dreamed of. I enjoyed this book to the max and could not put it down. I stayed on the edge of my seat and could not not stop fliiping the pages. I found this book to be extremely engaging and the author knew exactly what to say to deliver a story that kept me wanting more and more and more!!! I was anxious to see jow it ended but really didn't want it too. I am looking forward to more from this new, aspiring and out of sight author!!

I don't read books much, in fact I couldn't tell you the last time I actually finished a book, 20 years ago?, but I couldn't put "Vegas" down. It kept my attention the entire time and I absolutely loved the fantasies being fulfilled in this book. Most people would never go through with fantasies like these and this book allows us to live through these ladies. But then, of course, the drama starts....lots of drama, which is awesome! I finished this book wishing I could go get the sequel!

This book is well written and I look forward to many more books from this author. I recommend it to anyone who loves a good sexy fantasy and loads of drama!
