Synopsis:


Davis Way Cole smells T-R-O-U-B-L-E when she's fired from half of her part-time job at the Bellissimo Resort and Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi. The quarter-time job she's left with is lulling her to sleep, exactly what she's doing when Birdy James, centenarian director of the casino's Lost and Found department, disappears. With five million dollars.


Davis just can't help believing Birdy didn't do it, if for no other reason, she's too old to spend it. If Davis doesn't find the little old lady and the money fast, she'll lose what's left of her job, at which point, there goes her Bellissimo everything.

What she needs is a good luck charm. What she gets is her home invaded by hard-headed women, a soft-hearted little man, and major carpet troubles, the combination of which sends Davis's already suspicious mind into overdrive, and landing her between a jailhouse rock and a very hard place.

A little less conversation and a lot more action are called for if Davis has any chance of saving herself, her family, her marriage, her job, and the heartbreak hotel she calls home. Thank you. Thank you very much.



Review:

What do you get when you have the wrong people on hand, for the right reasons, while chaos and an Elvis convention line up with David in charge of the casino? More hilarious trouble than humanly conceivable! From the opening pages, you know the book is going to a grand slide of errors and chaos for Davis, like a trainwrecker you can't look away from. Mainly because Gretchen's way with Davis' character is so sarcastically funny, that you can't help to laugh while reading and shaking your head! You'll say you're gonna read a few chapters and fin that you've read half the book and don't want to stop! This is a great entry for the series While newbies to it will enjoy the book, you really need to have read at lease the previous book (book 8) to truly understand the changes that are in this one! But for those who LOVE the series, this will be the one you'll remember the most!
