About this ebook

Bad boy PR guru Lance Fulton is all about helping the gorgeous, quirky risk analyst Bailey Reuben. She’s in desperate need of some fun, and pretending to be her new boyfriend is the perfect way to make her see how sexy she is, help her out of a bind, and show her jerk of an ex what he’s missing.

Bailey might be in Las Vegas, but the last thing on her mind is sin. She’s there to find her thieving ex and get her grandfather’s watch back. Instead, she finds a smoking hot stranger. A stranger with a crazy plan to help her retrieve her family heirloom and get revenge. It’s a bad idea—she calculates risks for a living, after all—but she can’t say no. But the more they get to know each other—and the hotter their attraction burns—the higher the probability one of them will end up with a broken heart...

Ratings and reviews

Bailey Reuben just went through a bad breakup, but her cheating ex, Julian, kept the watch she had given him, thinking they might have a future together. The watch was her grandfather’s and Bailey wants it back badly. Her previous efforts went nowhere, and when she learns Julian will be in Las Vegas attending, of all things, a Romance Lovers convention, Bailey heads for Sin City. Bailey is not much of a risk taker, understandably so since she works for a bank as a credit risk analyst: but even in real life, Bailey analyses everything and calculates all the odds. Lance Fulton is also in Vegas for the convention, he’s an image consultant, and the company he works for is trying to attract potential clients. Lance is a risk taker, except in one area: relationships; he cannot commit. Lance is aiming for a promotion, but for this, he needs to appear more settled down for his boss Janet. LOVING THE ODDS is such a fun book! I loved both Bailey and Lance; they felt like nice, normal people. Ms. London’s descriptions of the characters are subtle but crystal clear, and I “saw” them, and Lance is just scrumptious, a near-perfect book boyfriend for me! There was real chemistry between Lance and Bailey, and not only sexual; both are very engaging. I also thought that the contrast, between Lance, who exudes confidence and Bailey is rather insecure, was very interesting, without being over the top as it often happens. Both characters are very well rounded, and Bailey is so easy to relate to. I loved how things progressed between them in every way, and how they both learned and grew. LOVING THE ODDS is a very quick read, with a solid story; the narrative is very smooth, the dialogues sound natural, and the sex scenes are hot, playful and tasteful. Although there are a few serious sequences and food for thought as well, LOVING THE ODDS had me smiling a lot! I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

"Loving the Odds" by Stefanie London is book fourteen in the "What Happens in Vegas" series but can be read as a standalone. This is Bailey Reuben and Lance Fulton's story. This is a great fun and steamy quick read. This is a perfect book to take your mind off your troubles, so kick back and escape for a while. I loved the chemistry and the banter between Bailey and Lance. I received a copy of this book from NetGalley/Entangled Publishing for an honest review. FYI, contains mature content.

There is really not much more for me to say. I have been very vocal about my love for the What Happens in Vegas series from the start. It's fun that the main backdrop is a romance convention held in Vegas. The men are hot. The women are single and they are all in for the time of their lives. Loving the Odds by Stefanie London breaks all the rules but supplies a rolling good time along the way. ARC of Loving the Odds by Stefanie London supplied by NetGalley and Entangled.
