A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Rocco LoTempio
Having never been to Las Vegas (yes, can you believe it?) I was interested to read the third offering in Deborah Coonts Lucky O’Toole series, SO DAMN LUCKY. I was in the mood for a sizzling Las Vegas adventure, and I wasn’t disappointed. When a magician pulls a disappearing act right under Lucky’s nose, it leads (naturally) to murder and Lucky’s right in the middle of the action. Throw in the fact her relationship with The Big Boss is on shaky ground, and not one, not two, but three romantic interests, and you have an unbeatable combination. If you enjoy a funny, fast paced mystery with plenty of sex and sizzle, SO DAMN LUCKY is the book for you.
