Lucky Penny

From USA Today bestselling author Ellie Ashe....


An abandoned casino. A Hollywood film crew. An underground gambling ring. This boring accounting job just took a turn for the weird.


A year after her acquittal on fraud charges, former financial analyst Miranda Vaughn is finally getting her life back. Not only does she have a chance for romance with her sexy neighbor, FBI Agent Jake Barnes, but she's also got a new job...one that's taking her to a vacation paradise.


Perched above the crystal blue waters of Lake Tahoe, Whispering Pines is a local landmark and a popular destination for the rich and famous who are stressed out from being rich and famous. And down on the water's edge is the Lucky Penny Casino-an abandoned shell of a once-stylish casino. The owner of the Whispering Pines used to own the Lucky Penny and he wants it back. Miranda's job is to get his finances in order so he can borrow the money to buy the casino. Easy, right?


But the nice boring accounting job spirals out of control with the addition of a Hollywood film crew, an underground gambling ring, and Jake going undercover at the resort as a newlywed-with another woman. As Miranda and Jake dive into their investigations it's more important than ever that they keep their attraction hidden as someone at the resort is watching them very closely and is willing to do just about anything to keep them from uncovering the truth.


"Smart, sexy, and so suspenseful! The Miranda Vaughn Mysteries take you on a wild ride through the world of big-money crime, and you won't believe whodunit!" -Traci Andrighetti, USA Today bestselling author of the Franki Amato Mysteries
