Last spring, my husband and I took a kids-free trip (thank you Grandma!) to Las
Vegas. Four days of lying by the pool, dining with grown-ups (and not having to
do the dishes afterward), and scooping out settings for the second Sin City
novel.
But when I sat down to write only one setting from my trip stuck in my head. The
other locations? Pure fiction. Can you guess which setting is real?
1. The party room at Chocolatini. This party spot features velvet couches,
floor-to-ceiling windows, and buff, shirtless men serving rum punch “tea” to the
bachelorette and her guests.
2. The hotel’s Greek God inspired pools. Columns, fountains—this location
is like the adult Disney version of antiquity. A long, narrow pool runs through
the center of the space. Smaller, circular pools stand at each end. There is even
swim-up blackjack!
3. Sizzling Secrets Sex Toy Shop. Located in a maze of stores, Sizzling
Secrets offers everything from chocolate body paint to black bondage ties.
After visiting Las Vegas’ pools, shops, and unique restaurants, I felt all of
these locations were plausible. But did you guest which one was real?
If you guessed #2, you’re right! I based the Greek God pool setting on the
stunning pools at Caesar’s Palace. I spent the day lounging with one of my oldest
friends at this stunning Oasis. My husband and my girlfriend’s spouse played
swim-up blackjack while we soaked up the sun.
The other settings? Chocolatini and Sizzling Secrets are fictional locations. But
I think they’d make a great addition to Sin City!

One dare will bring him to his knees . . .
Playing best man in his teammate's Las Vegas wedding is not U.S. Navy SEAL Jack
Barnes' idea of a vacation-especially when the maid-of-honor is the one woman who
knows how to push his buttons. Now his teammates are taking bets on whether he'll
end up in the fiery bartender's bed. Not one to turn away from a challenge, Jack
vows to seduce Natalie Lewis. And he'll do so on his terms-demanding complete
control.
The tantalizing SEAL may have a hand-over-your-panties smile and a body she'd
love to explore, but there's no way Natalie's falling into his bed. No, she's
going to get revenge. After bringing Jack to his knees with a series of Sin City
dares, she'll walk away. It's the perfect plan-until it backfires. Beneath his
devil-may-care attitude, Jack's unbridled desire proves irresistible. But he also
requires the one thing Natalie can't give. Control.
