"So Damn Lucky" by Deborah Coonts
Product Description(Amazon.com)

Lucky O’Toole—Head of Customer Relations at The Babylon, premier mega-resort on the Vegas Strip—thinks it’s just another night in Las Vegas. But then a magician pulls a disappearing act, right under Lucky’s nose. Is it a stunt? Or something worse?

While Lucky chases leads, someone is trying to put her off the scent. As if this wasn’t enough to ruin her day, Lucky’s relationship with The Big Boss is coming to a head—past hurts can no longer be denied. Of course, she is already on shaky emotional ground: Teddie, her live-in, has been touring with a young and lovely pop star. Paxton Dane, former coworker and would-be suitor, is still circling, hoping to find a chink in the armor of Lucky’s resolve. And then, there’s this French chef, who is proving to be too hot to handle…. 

Las Vegas expert Deborah Coonts thrills again with this third installment in her dazzling series focused on casino “fixer” Lucky O’Toole.

MY THOUGHTS: I've read several of the Luck O' Toole books by Ms. Coonts.  They are full of lots of info so you don't get confused about who is who and what is going on.  I really like that in a book.  Lucky is looking for love in all the wrong places, but maybe she's found it this time.  But who knows.  Lucky is not really good a picking out a good guy.  The last one left her.  On top of all the personal problems Lucky has, she's after a killer.  She has a missing magician, a crazy guy that lives under the city, and a mysterious box.  Throw these all together and Lucky is in a heap of trouble.  I really enjoyed reading this book.  Full of mystery, my favorite.  Does Lucky get her guy and the killer?  You'll have to read the book to find out.

MY RATING: 5
