This series has firmly found it's feet. The eclectic cast gels beautifully, and the two leads spark. I loved the takedown in this story and that the two leads sort of came to terms with their obvious feelings for one another. Did not expect the cliffhanger at the end! Gah! Now to impatiently await the resolution in about a year!!!

3.5. Least favorite one yet but still fun. Also, very glad I don’t have to wait on the next one given that ending.

Janet Evanovich's novels are: 'Pithy, witty and fast-paced' (The Sunday Times); 'Non-stop laughs with plenty of high jinks' (USA Today); 'Razor-sharp' (Sunday Express) He's on the run. She's an FBI agent. But putting Nick Fox in gaol is the last thing on Kate O'Hare's mind... Nicolas Fox is a charming con man and master thief. Kate O'Hare is the FBI agent on his trail. At least that's what everyone thinks. In reality, they're secretly working together to bring down super-criminals. Criminals like brutal casino magnate Evan Trace. Evan Trace is running a money-laundering operation through his casino. Some of his best customers are mobsters, dictators, and global terrorists. Nick and Kate are going deep undercover as high-stakes gamblers, wagering millions of dollars - and their lives - in an attempt to topple Trace's empire. The scam will take Fox and O'Hare from the Las Vegas strip, to the sun-soaked beaches of Hawaii, and into the dark back alleys of Macau. Their only backup - a self-absorbed actor, a Somali pirate, and an ex-soldier who believes a rocket launcher is the best way to solve every problem. What could possibly go wrong?

This book was another hot for me. Each book is just as good as the last and I love that. That, and I love the fact they are always such good, quick reads.

I did find the romance a little bit sudden in this book. I know it had been building up in the past books but I hadn't expected it really. I don't know, but having this book end on a cliffhanger was different as well and that definitely worked for me. It does mean I need to rush back to my local library to get the latest book, which won't happen until the rest of my books are due to be returned. Oh well.
