What Happened in Vegas? By Claire Highton-Stevenson

⭐⭐⭐⭐

This one is a super-cute romcom that made us want our life to be a romcom too – especially since the dedication of the book is: For everyone trying. You will get there.

Molly Day, a coffee chop owner in LA, is sent off on a holiday by her staff because she’s working too hard. She also recently found her partner cheating on her – so the need to recharge and regroup is rather high. But instead of a relaxing beach, Molly goes to Vegas for a week and decides to embrace whatever Sin City throws her way. And what Sin City throws her way si super-hot Anna Garcia, a location hunter with one of the Hollywood dream makers. There is a instant spark, and well, it is Sin City best known for marriages-by-mistake – which is exactly where Molly and Anna find themselves after 12 hours of fun, drinks and sex --- so much sex. Naturally, they decide to get the marriage annulled but discover thatthey need a divorce, not just an annulment. Molly actually considers staying married, but Anna, carrying some baggage of a past relationship that went right up to a marriage license (but not further) and of her extremely Catholic mom freaks and disappears on Molly.

But they’re both in LA and though difficult, it’s not impossible to find the other. Which is how Anna finds her ‘wife’ with a proposal of giving it a go. But Molly is having none of it.

Molly Day is an instantly appealing character. Cocky Anna grows on you as the story progresses. The chemistry between them is good and the sexy times are beyond good. There is lots and lots of sex, but the book doesn’t spillover into erotica because there is plenty of drama also going on. Plus plenty of romance and enough of angsty conflict before the happy ending. A complete romcom package, this.

This book is light, fluffy and very entertaining.


(Note that despite the subhead labelling it a second chances romance, this is a first try contemporary romance…ummm…romcom).
