IT HAPPENED IN VEGAS. 

 I can't be held responsible. Things that happen there are supposed to stay there, right? Right? Yeeeah. Not so much. Andie's just days away from tying the knot, but there's just ooooone little glitch. Apparently, she's already married. Or someone with her name is married to a guy out in Oregon of all places, and the courthouse won't issue her a marriage license until it's all cleared up. 

Tripping her way through cow pies and country songs to meet up with a man who gets around places on horseback is her very last idea of how to have a good time, but if she's going to get married, make partner at the firm, and have two point five kids before she's thirty-five, she needs to get to the bottom of this snafu and fix it quick ... before her fiance finds out and everything she's been working toward goes up in flames. 

My Thoughts...

One of the steamiest books I've read this year!!

Mack and Andie meet up in Vegas, at the blackjack table.  Mack is a cowboy hottie-boom-body!  And right away sparks fly which leads to one hot and heavy night!  (Wow-wee! The sex scenes in this novel are off the chart!)  And Andie is hilarious.  There are holes in the night for Andie though and she ends up the next morning separated from Mack.  Fast forward 2 years, Andie is engaged and in need of a divorce from her one-night-stand in Vegas.  And so she heads out into the country to get those divorce papers signed.  

Picture the movie What Happens in Vegas mixed with Sweet Home Alabama!  It also had a Rachel Gibson (my favorite romance author) feel to it.  

It was very good, very steamy (not just that one night in Vegas but a few more times!), and the ending worked out.  What more can I say?  A quick, hot, cute read.  

Bottom line:  Pick this one up right away.  The current $4.99 price was worth it.
