Ian Westmoreland is the proud owner of the Rolling Cascades Casino, one of the newest gambling casinos in Vegas. It boasts an affluent clientele and a security operation second to none. But because the prior owner was jailed for illegal gambling, the FBI wants to do an unofficial investigation of Ian's establishment. One of two agents will be assigned two the case, an intensely dogmatic investigator who is trying to make rank, or Brooke Chamberlain, a former love interest of Ian, one he has gotten out of his system. Guess who gets the assignment?
Brooke dated Ian for a little over three years, and looked out for his best interest, but Ian felt she betrayed him; he severed their ties and moved on. Under the guise of needing R&R, Brooke checks into the Rolling Cascades. She is fully aware that if Ian discovers the real reason she is there, things will erupt like a volcano. Well things do erupt, and not for the reasons either of them thought. But, they have to lay their differences aside, and whatever else is simmering between them, because the casino is the target for a notorious theft ring.
In true Brenda Jackson fashion, IAN'S GAMBLE will ignite readers in a way that is pleasing and rewarding. Again she gives a volatile story, with a touch of suspense. She revisits some favorites from the powerful Westmoreland family and highlights the mystique that surrounds them. This is a provocative read.
