Book Description:

Someone I love did a truly terrible thing, and I’m working three jobs on top of my one as a showgirl at the Benton Las Vegas Grand to make up for it before anyone finds out—too late.

Cole Benton III, the ruthless CEO of the Benton Worldwide hotel empire, calls me into his glass office overlooking the Vegas skyline, demanding to know why I stole all the money from one of his grandmother’s charity funds.

I can’t tell him that

“You are aware that I could have you fired, arrested, or worse,” he asks, his voice like black ice. Clearly dangerous.

Gulp. There’s a reason everyone calls him Triple Ice behind his back, and it goes way beyond the three Roman numerals behind his name. Rumor has it that he’s BFFs with the leader of a local cartel and that’s he’s not afraid to call in favors.

But I can’t answer—not if it means throwing the real thief under his “or worse.”

I keep my mouth clamped closed.

And Triple Ice stares at me, his malevolent ice-chip eyes glittering with contempt.

Then he opens his desk drawer and pulls out…. a wedding ring???

 BWBH Review: 

Sunny is balancing three jobs to pay the rent on her Las Vegas apartment. Cole is the CEO of a highly successful casino and resort conglomerate. These two couldn’t be more different.

When Cole offers to help Sunny with her financial struggles in exchange for her playing his fake fiancee, Sunny sees this as an offer she can’t refuse. 

Sunny in Vegas is perfect for readers who enjoy Pretty Woman, a strong, independent FMC, and a billionaire who experiences love for the first time.

Thank you to Theodora Taylor and Valentine PR for the ARC.
