THE OUTRAGEOUSLY FUNNY THRILLER FROM THE TWO-TIME SHAMUS & TWO-TIME ANTHONY AWARD WINNING AUTHOR

Eight months ago, knockout PR exec Reece Germaine spent a wild weekend in Las Vegas with football superstar Raygene Price. It was fun, but now Reece is pregnant with Raygene's baby and his mother is playing hardball with Reece over a fair and equitable childcare settlement.

Fortunately, Reece has a Plan B: the $25,000 Raygene gave her in Vegas to bet on the 50-1 underdog Arizona Cardinals to win the Super Bowl. The very same Super Bowl the Cardinals are about to play in for all the marbles.

Holding a casino betting slip worth a potential $1.25 million, Reece heads back to Vegas to watch the big game, unaware she won't be going alone. Right behind her are Raygene, who's finally remembered that betting slip; Raygene's psychotic homeboy Trip Stiles, who's blackmailing him to the tune of 200 grand; and smooth operator Aeneas Charles, the no-nonsense troubleshooter Raygene's agent has hired to keep his star client out of trouble.

Once her grandfather's little "firecracker," Reece Germaine is a pregnant lady in high demand - and Sin City is about to find out what the word "action" really means.
