Book excerpt: The second bestselling series from Kristina Knight marries two consistently popular romance trends: billionaires and cowboys. Hot Las Vegas nights get even steamier for these three powerful, wealthy businessmen with cowboy roots and the strong, independent women who fall for them. What happens in Vegas certainly won’t stay there as these successful tycoons win at love. What the Bachelor Gets: Local property developer and sexy Vegas bachelor Gage Reeves is bombarded with a stream of showgirls, local socialites, and entertainers who all expect something from him. All Gage wants is to help an old high school friend, Callie Holliday, make a go of her new spa in his high-end retail complex. But their wheeling and dealing soon turns from strictly professional to decidedly personal. What the Heiress Wants: Denver publishing heiress Miranda Clayton is tired of society parties and shopping, but her tycoon father refuses to take her seriously. Her solution? Beat him at his own game by going to work for his top competitor, Connor Reeves. Connor isn’t fooled by Miranda’s act for a second. He knows exactly who she is; the question is what does the lady want? What the Gambler Risks: Twenty-something ice queen Sabrina York enjoys fame and fortune writing self-help books for a largely female audience—but she could do without her reputation as the Oldest Living (Supposed) Virgin in Vegas. Jase Reeves knows Sabrina’s not nearly as cold as she would like people to think. He didn’t intend to have a one-night stand with the Vegas Virgin, but he can’t get her out of his head. Now Sabrina has one goal: stay away from the handsome gambler before he melts her career—and her heart. Sensuality Level: Sensual
