When Josie King left Las Vegas in the '90s, she never looked back. The daughter of gambling mogul Roy King, spirited math whiz Josie grew up on the casino floor but deliberately turned away from the family business. She’s been living a quiet life in LA as an accountant and a single mom when she finds herself summoned back to Sin City.

Now, 15 years later, Josie's father has died unexpectedly, and her siblings are already gathered for the reading of his will...only to discover that in order to inherit, they must spend three years working together at the notorious family casino, The Jackpot.

Josie’s pride won’t let her walk away from the family empire again, so she agrees to take charge of the casino’s finances. She quickly discovers that while Roy King was once the most powerful man in Vegas, times have changed. These days, everyone has a piece of the action: Josie’s brothers, the FBI, the local mobsters, even the sexy rival casino owner who’s more than a friend. Las Vegas is more dangerous than ever, but Josie knows that to save the family business, she’ll have to wade in deeper.

Stacked with sex, crime, sibling rivalry and mountains of cash, THE KINGS OF VEGAS is an electrifying thriller with a tough and irresistible heroine at the center of the action.
