Luck in love has never been this quick and dirty… the one woman he thought he could trust, he’s become an overly-confident, cocky playboy whose only romantic ambition is to send his women home with a smile. Until he’s knocked off his conceited perch by Alexis Lane.
Just as Alexis has the chance to catapult Reina Dare to the top of all the best-seller lists, she gambles with her future when she meets Kent. He makes her blood boil, but her body burn. It’s a coin-flip whether she wants to surrender to his sex appeal, or punch him in his stupid, pretty face.
The stakes are never higher when their chemistry is off the charts hot—in and out of bed. Both have sworn off romantic relationships, but Kent quickly realizes just because there’s fire doesn’t mean they’ll get burned.
Now, he must convince Alexis to gamble again, because the house always wins.
If you like cocky, bossy, playboys brought to their knees by fiery, headstrong women, this book is for you.

I really enjoyed Alexis and Kent’s book she is a romance author and she also writes more steamy stuff under a pen name Reina Dare when she meets Kent who is the CEO of a casino in Vegas the attraction between them is immediate but both of them have lots of baggage from being hurt in past relationships and no longer believe in love. These two are smoking hot together and I just loved the back and forth between them. It is a super read I really liked it
What happens when your past makes you not believe in love, well for Alexis and Kent they don’t have to believe because LOVE will prove it knows what it’s doing.
There are twists, sharp turns, emotional highs and lows, undeniable chemistry, humor with strong, entertaining characters. What more could you want?

After meeting Alexis in the first book in this series…I was waiting ‘not so patiently’ for her book.
Alexia is feisty and fierce and above all else searching for love.. she’s both her sweet romance persona and her erotic romance persona…and ultimately she wants both. Although she would never admit that….considering herself to have ‘bad taste in men’.
I really enjoyed the push/pull between Alexis and Kent… from their initial meeting it’s apparent they have chemistry and lust for each other. The fact that Kent was so honest, about his feelings for Alexis..at least to himself, was quite refreshing and his ‘self voice’ was just fantastic.. rude, crude and funny as hell. He was a great blend of humour and classic romance book boyfriend… and a worthy advisory for Alexis.
I really enjoyed the introduction and involvement of other Kingsley family members… I’m hoping that we get to see more of them in future reads ( Jasper Jasper Jasper )
This is a smexy read and I really enjoyed their interactions.. I just wish there was more of them…and a little less avoidance.. because when these two are together they are hawt!
This book was everything I love about a steamy romance! I was Immediately sucked in by the rapport between the employees and the boss. The banter just got even better from there! Just when I thought the plot was going to be slightly predictable, NOPE! This page turner has me laughing one minute and all hot and bothered the next! Add in a shoe obsession to rival that of Charlaine Harris’ Queen Betsy and a HEA, and this book was pure perfection. Thank you, Ms. Guimond, for giving me the opportunity to read this in advance.
P. S. My husband said to add his thanks, too.
I really loved Quick dirty luck it would be the second story that I’ve ready by Heather Guimond and also couldn’t wait to get my hands on Alexis book , she’s introduced in The novel approach ( if you haven’t read you so need to it’s not required though ) I really didn’t like her at first in that story but the more time that went on I started to love her characters even more so after this one . Alexis really me meet her match with Kent this two really made since together even though the heroine was a runner Kent chased her every time . Not only is this a HOT romance it has some funny moments put in there that will have you die laughing . I hope to see more of these characters in future love between the pages series and oh wow can’t wait for the next one been waiting for it since she was mentioned .We also get to see the couple from book one which I so love because we get to see how they are doing silly grinning over here . I can’t wait to read more books by Heather in the future and to see more in this series .

Audio Review
This is book two in this series about romance writers and their HEA. This one is about Alexis and Kent and when Alexis aka Raina is seeking a venue for a book event she is contracting with Kent and his brother to use their hotel conference room. Alexis gets more than she expected and so does Kent.
Aaron and Heather do a great good narrating this book. It is funny at times and hot at others and interesting to have a character that is a romance author. I enjoyed listening to this book.
Quick Dirty Luck
A Love Between the Pages Novel, Book 2
By: Heather Guimond
Narrated by: Heather Firth, Aaron Shedlock
Entertaining from the opening line, Heather Guimond is a winner with book 2 of her Love Between the Pages series. This features Kent and Alexis. Kent is a hotel owner in Vegas and Alexis is booking his hotel to host an author signing. From the first meeting, we see the sparks fly, but not necessarily in a good way. Kent is that character that immediately got under my skin. He is annoying, yet charming. We all know people like that, and you want to like him, but he just has that way that bugs you! Alexis is the perfect heroine! She is confident and not afraid of anything. Strong woman always are a plus for me. Put these two together and it’s combustible. It’s a fast, fun, listen, includes some steamy passion and the crazy, yet lovable family that will make you laugh all the way through. Guimond has a true fan with me and I can’t wait til there is another audio!
Give this story the team of Aaron Shedlock and Heather Firth and I know it’s going to be incredible. Shedlock sneaks himself into Kent, gives us the arrogance in one breath and then eases us into his loving side all with the tone of his voice. Firth shines as Alexis, from her confidence to her uncertainty, her annoyance and her love. It comes through and lets us have all the feels. Together they have created the magic I love to hear.

I liked Alexis and Kent but I will be honest and admit that their behaviors kind of drove me up wall. The plot itself was fun and the chemistry between the couple was good. My one big complaint was that they both came across as so immature. Other than that pet peeve I enjoyed the book.
Wow! I’m still chuckling after reading this fabulous story about Kent and Alexis. Alexis is an author who writes two different genres. She is asked to help set up an author event at a hotel and that is where she meets Kent. But she doesn’t realize he is the one person who can help the event take place. These two characters are perfect for each other. The wit between them, not to mention the explosive chemistry makes you feel in your heart that they belong together. But can their personalities mesh? Can two people who have had heartache in the past, break down their barriers and give it a go?! I truly enjoyed this story so much. Love these characters and didn’t want this story to end. I give it a big thumbs up to all to read!!!
I received for an honest review from Booksprout
Omg hot is just burning I loved this short read I couldn’t put it down a must read the characters were just fantastic

Kent doesn’t start off well, he’s a casino owner who’s checking out his assistant. Then he sees Alexis and wants her but has to fend off a one night stand who works for him. Real classy.
Alexis enjoys being chased by Kent. I had hope for her, but she caved pretty quick. Sigh. Still, a Vegas steam read.
