Mojo Sheepshanks is a survivor. Witnessing the murder of
her parents when she was only five, being kidnapped by the
woman she now calls Mom, having an ex-con half brother
who's a psychopath and two foster sisters, one of whom is
black, Mojo has yet to figure out who she really is.
Mojo has an uncanny knack for winning at slots, is making
her home above Bad-Ass Bert's Biker Saloon and is being
visited on a regular basis by her lying, cheating and dead
ex-husband. Dear old Nick cannot board the train to the
hereafter until Mojo forgives him for his behavior on
earth. A ghost trying to make amends is too weird, even for
Mojo.
Someone wants to see Mojo dead. As she starts uncovering
clues to her real identity, the dangerous game gets more
deadly. Even Tucker Darrock, the irresistible undercover
cop, who's trying to protect her, can't keep this smart,
sassy and savvy woman safe. Mojo is determined to find out
who her stalker is or die trying.
DEADLY GAMBLE is the first book in Ms. Miller's new
romantic suspense series and it is a winner. The storyline
is very unique and intriguing; complete with murder, mind
games, ghosts and a sexy cop making it a total gem. The
dialogue is creative and witty. Our heroine is strong,
brave and smart. The supporting cast of characters in this
wonderful story are delightful and an integral part of the
whole. I look forward to meeting them all again in the next
two books about the Sheepshanks gang. Take the gamble.
You'll be glad you did.
THIS GAME HAS SOME VERY UNUSUAL PLAYERS...
She's got an uncanny knack for winning slots, but her
home-sweet-home is Bad-Ass Bert's Biker Saloon. She'd love
to go deep undercover with an irresistibly hot cop, but he's
got baggage as big as his biceps. She's survived a
mysterious tragedy, but Mojo Sheepshanks hasn't quite
figured out who she really is or how to get on with her
life. And now the wisecracking Mojo is seeing ghosts--the
real, ectoplasmic kind--and turning up baffling clues to her
real identity. Suddenly a wealthy man is claiming to be her
long-lost uncle... and she's being shadowed by an ex-con
brother with a talent for killer mind games. As Mojo races
to finally uncover the facts, she'll need all her savvy and
strange new talent to keep someone from burying her--and the
truth--for keeps.
