WHAT HAPPENED IN VEGAS... refuses to stay there when
Gideon Nash, a wealthy antiques hunter and adventurer,
heads to NY to recover his grandmother's stolen emerald.
Jacinda Barrett, assistant curator at a tony New York City
auction house, is in possession of the very stone that
Gideon seeks and preparing to auction it in a few days.
She's finally gained the respectability and security she's
craved all her life, and she's not about to let anyone
mess that, or her first auction, up. Not even Gideon, the
man with whom she had a steamy one-night stand in Vegas
six years before when she was Jacy Powers, a struggling
dancer/cocktail waitress.
Wendy Etherington has written a sexy, romantic romp,
complete with a full blown whodunnit embedded within.
When the very emerald that Gideon seeks is stolen again,
just days before the scheduled auction, Jacinda and Gideon
join forces to solve the mystery of its disappearance
while unsuccessfully trying to ignore the sexual tension
that is ratcheting up between them.
That weekend in Vegas with Gideon Nash is one of Jacinda
Barrett's steamiest memories. Too bad it's also the one she
most wants kept secret. After all, working as an exotic
dancer to fund college doesn't exactly fit with her current
upscale lifestyle.
So when Gideon reappears like a sexy ghost from her past,
can she refuse his promise of an even better time? The
temptation is simply too much for Jacinda to resist.
But as their fling revisited evolves into something that
looks like commitment, she discovers Gideon has a dirty
little secret of his own. And it's one that could make
their weekend in Vegas seem like family entertainment.
