Nadine Jordan was angry. Someone had lied when they said “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.” It simply was not true. What she did for Two Nights in Vegas just showed up in her office, and happens to be her boss’s little brother. If she could just get through a few more nights with him in town, time would take care of the rest.
Marc Deasely was out of time. He was only going to be in Los Angeles for a few more nights to hang out with his big brother before boarding a plane back to Alaska. The ebony beauty he had met in Vegas had escaped him, or so he thought, until he walked into his brother’s office and saw her standing there.
Both Marc and Nadine are determined that spending a few more nights together will give them both some clarity on their chance meeting. An interaction which may have been more than just a coincidence.

Ì could have sworn I heard that this was a real romance despite of the cover. No romance here. It started with the author telling us what happened in the first book,which I could of went without reading. so let me see.
She jumps on the back of a strange man's bike, who is the so called hero, go to a strip club with him and while he is getting a lap dance from some blond slut, he was masturbating her, the heroine, then they went to a club where he had sex with her on the balcony from behind in full view of everyone then to his hotel and had sex all night. The next thing is, he takes her to dinner then to a sex club where a woman was feeling her up, another strange man was sucking on her toes, while the hero had sex with her. All this happens and they didn't even know each other's name. I am certainly glad I didn't waste money on that book, I would have been pissed.
now in this book he finds her, she is his older brothers secretary, The hero is talking about he wants to marry the heroine now, says he is in love with her, a woman he didn't really talk to and didn't know her name, a woman he spent two days having sex with any and everywhere, a woman he shared with others. Sorry, but I cannot suspend belief to buy this turning into love.
We are suppose to believe they are in love? I still can't accept that. he has an healthy dose of lust and it will wear off in time, I'd say the next time either one goes to Vegas without the other.
Then again none of them have any self respect or morals, so they are perfectly suited. the heroine and hero didn't just go to Vegas and have a one night stand, she went there and became a whore.
Another story of trying to turn lust and sex into love. Very disappointing. I won't be buying any more of this authors works.
the real score I want to give this is -5 stars.
this book was listed under interracial contemporary romance, there wasn't a warning in the book about it's content. Authors please, if your books is about sex please say so and be honest about it. I feel a little tricked into buying this book thinking it was about a real romance. because I only read books about heroines and hero I can respect and care for I don't see myself caring about the outcome of this couple.

I thoroughly enjoyed Nadine's and Marc's love story. All the stars finally aligned and they were finally able to meet. This was a good story it just shows that if you're meant to be then you're meant to be no matter what. And the package that that person is wrapped in may not be what you are used to. I recommend this book.
This was not the typical Olivia Gaines novel, but I still enjoyed it. Gone are the quirky characters, replaced by a bit of sappiness. Stars aligned to bring Nadine and Marc together. In the first book they go hit and heavy on a Vegas weekend. Now they meet by chance because Marc happens to be her boss' little brother. You can't make this stuff up. Oh wait, yes you can! Lol
I enjoyed the whirlwind romance and since I am a bit of a sap when it comes to love I cheered for them to work thing s out. I was a little off put when Marc was being a little stern with her in Alaska, but his reasons were good. I like the story and still feel there is more to their story.
What you do in the dark will come out in the light!
I just love the way Olivia writes. She makes her characters seems so realistic. That's what she did to Nadine. Marc's love for her was deep and intense. He wanted to protect her above all things. When she went to visit him in Prudhoe Bay, he showed just how far he was willing to go to do that. I enjoyed reading this HEA story. I just wish it was a little longer. In my opinion, the two books should have been one!
I loved this storyline. I liked this book much better than the first book, Two Nights in Vegas. This book had more depth to it. Nadine and Marc are a great example of what love could be like if we opened our hearts, and minds to the possibilities. Eventhough they had sex the first time they met, they realized it could go beyond that. Great book.
Marc and Nadine were like two magnets drawn to one another, who combusted when we they got to close. They had one draw back Marc worked far away at a job - that would only allow them to see one another every six months. Their love held strong and intense and which brought them closer to each other. A love worth fighting for.
What a delightful surprise! I am way late to this series. Even after I got Two Nights In Vegas & part two they languished in my library for weeks while I bought several others since then and polished most of them off. I was a little worried after book one wondering if Nadine & Marc would progress to more than hot freaky sex. But my worries were for naught as Ms. Gaines worked her magic. Marc has almost usurped Christopher Tang as my fav Romance Novel hunk. ( Uhhh... Almost.. mind you)😉 I laughed, cried and had to shake my own head out of the clouds so I could finish the story. It makes you want to believe in cosmic ordered fate, soul mates..etc. Well I know it wasn't meant for me but it does happen to some people. I loved these two novellas..well written, spicy, sassy, funny, sweet, surprising starry eyed romance. Please Read!! Things that make you go..hmmmm..😍
Whewwweee Chile, I was not prepared for part 2! Marc and Nadine's story had me in a chokehold for most of the dang book! I'm talking about the sexy, erotic, non-verbal looks to the smallest acts like his fingers brushing her arm. That man did not PLAY when it came to Nadine. There were some moments in this book that had me laughing so hard and some that had me wanting to unapologetically slap a few people.
This 2-part series was a gem of a find. It was such a pleasure to read. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a wonderful, sexy, sassy, naughty, funny , and beautiful HEA ending. You will not be disappointed.
Marc and Nadine met in Vegas, and shared an unforgettable weekend of anonymous love making. This story continues when she gets home and Marc is there. Let the fun begin. I highly recommend any title by Olivia Gaines, I'm never disappointed with her writing.👍💜
Nadine and Marc deserved a fully developed story. Why would a smart woman act so dumb about a pregnancy? And no one close talked about it? If Marc’s job was so dangerous why didn’t his brother do more? There were also some grmmarical errors that needed editing which is unusual for this author.
I think the 2 books (2 nights In Vegas) are sexy, hot and lots of fun. If ever two characters were meant for each other it is theses two no nonsense people that bring out the fun and passion in each other
Loved both stories. Great details and good story line. (I have an issue with being charged for two books when the story could have been done with one book). Liked the author and the story.
I really enjoyed this sequel but how do you find the next one? There seems to be quite a few of her books that I cannot find. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
This was an okay read, but the first book was better. There were some conversations that didn't seem to fit the characters' personalities. When Marc was first talking to his brother Rolland about Nadine they sounded almost juvenile. Not saying that siblings, even grown ones don't talk to each other crazy, but for two professionals, it seemed weird a little bit. Also, when Nadine surprised him at his jobsite, his best friend who was like a brother to him had weird moments when he wanted to meet Nadine. I just thought this story was forced since it was born out of reader's responses to what happened to them after the first story ended. But overall, I still enjoyed the story.
I really want to like this better than the first one but I'm not sure. I love that they get together and fall in love but I feel like I miss the more alpha male Marc of the first book. And yes I get it it must've been written in the stars for them to get together or something but damn do I have to read about it soo much? reminds of some dude spouting about poetry and stars to me while I rolled my eyes. otherwise I liked it.
I love Olivia's books, they have you laughing out loud and then crying like you are in the damn book! Loved Marc and Nadine's journey to love! Marc knew exactly what he wanted. Loved this book, definitely on my re-read list. If you've never read Olivia Gaines, do so, you will be laughing so hard!
