I had the characters and the setting but no real understanding of narrative drive. So, I threw a young woman out of a tour helicopter into the middle of the Pirate Show and let the story unfold. A bit of murder to keep the plot moving, some wisecracking and Vegas mischief to make you laugh, and some romance to keep it interesting. A bit of a mash up, but it works. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRAISE FOR THE LUCKY O'TOOLE VEGAS ADVENTURE SERIES\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Lucky's story is \u003cstrong\u003efunny, fast-paced, exuberant and brilliantly realized\u003c\/strong\u003e.\" - \u003cem\u003eSusan Wiggs, #1 New York Times bestselling author\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Get ready to \u003cstrong\u003ewin big--with a novel that will keep you glued to the pages\u003c\/strong\u003e all the way to the end.\" - \u003cem\u003eBrenda Novak, New York Times \u0026amp; USA Today bestselling author\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003cstrong\u003eMore fun than a winning streak in Vegas\u003c\/strong\u003e.
