Lucky Stiff & Wanna get Lucky Book Reviews & Giveaway


Wanna Get Lucky -
A young woman plunges from a Las Vegas sightseeing helicopter, landing in the Pirate’s lagoon in front of the Treasure Island Hotel in the middle of the 8:30 Pirate Show.  Almost everyone writes her off as another Vegas victim. 
But Lucky O’Toole smells a rat.  She’s head of Customer Relations at The Babylon, the newest, most opulent mega-casino and resort on the Strip, so she’s got a lot on her plate: the Adult Film industry’s annual awards banquet, a spouse-swapping convention, sex toy purveyors preying on the pocket-protector crowd attending ElectroniCon…. 

Still, Lucky can’t resist turning over a few stones. 
When a former flame is one of the snakes she uncovers, Lucky’s certain she’s no longer dealing with an anonymous Sin City suicide.  To top it all off, Lucky’s best friend Teddie—Las Vegas’ finest female impersonator—presses to take their relationship to the next level.  Leave it to Lucky to attract a man who looks better in a dress than she does.

Lucky must manage the Babylon’s onslaught of outrageous festivities, solve a murder, and struggle to keep her life and libido from spinning out of control… not to mention keep her balance in six inch heels. 

                                                    
Read An Excerpt

Mandie's Thought - I absolutely LOVED, I mean loved this book. If you are a fan of Janet Evanovich you are really going to love this. It was fast paced and quirky. I wasn't too sure about Teddie at first, especially with Dane around but I eventually warmed up to him. This book is full of spunk and oh so funny!



Lucky Stiff


Lucky O'Toole -- head of Customer Relations at premier mega resort the Babylon -- thinks it's just another night in Las Vegas. A tractor-trailer has spilled its load of a million honeybees, blocking not only the Strip but the entrance to her hotel. . .The district attorney for Clark County -- apparently the odd man out of a threesome on the twelfth floor -- is hiding in the buff in one of the hotel's laundry rooms. . . And Numbers Neidermeyer -- one of Vegas's less-than-savory oddsmakers -- is throwing some major attitude at Las Vegas's ace private investigator, the beautiful Jeremy Whitlock.

The next day, Lucky discovers Ms. Neidermeyer has been tossed into the shark tank at the Mandalay Bay Resort as a snack for the tiger shark. When the police show up at the Babylon with a hastily prepared search warrant, applied for by the district attorney himself, and Jeremy lands in the hot seat, Lucky realizes her previous night was far from routine.

Amid the chaos of fight weekend, the Babylon's hiring of an eccentric new French chef, and her madam mother's scheme to auction off a young woman's virginity, Lucky is drawn into a deadly game where no one is what they seem, a game that will end only when she discovers who made fish food out of Numbers Neidermeyer.
Lucky O'Toole and fabulous Las Vegas -- life doesn't get any better.

Mandie's Thoughts - This book was another home run for Deborah Coonts. She has a fan for life from me. Her characters have so much life and she is a fantastic writer. Any fan of the Stephanie Plum series will love this! If you are looking for something fun and maybe not so realistic then this is for you. I enjoyed the banter between the characters and Lucky is a strong lead. I hope to read many more in this series!
