    <![CDATA[Marina Martino is a bright, young woman who has a talent for counting cards. Miguel Rodriguez is a charming Las Vegas casino dealer. Sparks fly when they meet during a serendipitous game of blackjack. But as they become entangled in a dizzying romance through Sin City, details about Miguel's dark past surface and Marina begins to doubt his intentions as the stakes rise and danger unfolds. In the city of illusion, the normally calculating Marina has to make a decision to trust her brains or her heart-to bet on her skill or push her luck.]]>

    <![CDATA[What happens when a charming, out-of-work actor is tapped to wine, dine, and romance an attractive young woman, but he ends up falling for her sister instead?   Val Antonucci, a pretty, vivacious twenty-something is quickly becoming jaded.  In an effort to strengthen Val's trusting side and spice up her love-life, her older brother and sister hire the new waiter at their trattoria, Danny Alvieri, to woo her.  But real sparks soon fly between Danny and Val's sister, the laid-back Lucy.   Adding heat to the stew is the fact that the trattoria is in financial trouble.  While Val is relatively unconcerned about this as she collects her paycheck without bothering to clock in most days, Lucy and her brother Cy have to struggle to make ends meet and fend off aggressive competitors.   When their plans start to unravel, the sibling rivalry starts to boil over, and everyone involved is going to have to struggle and pull together if they plan on a feast instead of famine.]]>

    <![CDATA[&quot;DiPlacido grabs you with her descriptive voice in the candid dialogue between the characters, and humorous thought processes. The conversations are realistic and never come across as forced or clichéd. I was aroused throughout the story. The sex in Mutual Holding is damn near %#*&amp;&quot; <br/><br/>~Sin for JERR <br/>&quot;Ms. DiPlacido is a thoroughly seasoned author, and it shines through, with this outstandingly written book. Ms. DiPlacido lets Lisa do the talking, and what a talker Lisa is. She relates her tale of confused and frustrated love, leaving the readers in stitches. Lisa's dry humor is biting at times. You will come away from this story feeling like a friendship has developed. The closeness only a good writer can achieve and deliver to its fullest degree. The only thing you might not like about this book is your inability to put it down.&quot;<br/><br/><br/>~Janalee Ruschhaupt for Road to Romance]]>
