Crystal Hudson's Reviews > My Big Fat Vegas Wedding

Despite the title, this isn't a comedy.
Grace is a young, widowed mother caring for a young son and her mother, all while trying to cover the bases on a waitress' salary. Dominic is a wealthy businessman, new to Vegas but the type of guy who is successful, with ease. But to build his local credibility, he learns he's going to need the stability of a wife to garner support from the locals. How he goes about doing that is anathema to Grace, whose late husband had terrible gambling debts and was deep in mob pockets. They come together, neither looking for a relationship, but end up seeing answers to some of their individual problems by getting married. What happens then is the basis for a wonderful story, where two people end up finding needed answers in each other--because of love. Great story, well-written (especially dialogue) and realistically told. I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book.
