Book Overview

From the author of the "clever, creative, and sweetly delicious" (Kirkus Reviews) The Coincidence of Coconut Cake and The Simplicity of Cider comes a novel about an exasperated wife and mother who makes a play to reignite her marriage--and risks everything in a gamble she hopes is a sure bet.When Milwaukee-area wife and mother MJ Boudreaux notices her husband Chris seems more interested in the casino than her, she's more bothered that she isn't upset than by her husband's absence. She picks up poker as a way for them to spend more time together--and reignite their marital flame. Although the game doesn't give her the quality time with Chris that she'd hoped, MJ finds she has a knack for it. Increasingly unhappy at home, she turns to the felt top of the poker table for comfort. Intoxicated with newfound freedom, MJ begins spending more time at the gambling tables and less with her family, finally carving out for herself a place outside her role of wife and mother. After a string of great wins, MJ finds herself in Vegas, attracting the attention of a certain magnetic poker star. But when she's forced to choose between her family and her new exciting lifestyle, the stakes may be higher than she thought and MJ will have to play her hand carefully...or risk losing it all.

Cute romance novel

By Adella, May 16, 2020 Verified Purchase

I didn't like this one as much as her other book The Coincidence of Coconut Cake, but it was still a cute romance novel. Good for a quick summer read or anyone who likes romance.

Read this one!

By Sage the Mermaid, August 9, 2018 Verified Purchase

If you haven't read a book that Amy E. Reichert has written, you'll want to read them all. This book takes place in a Milwaukee suburb. MJ sounds like your typical Wisconsin housewife, having a little too much to drink during the day, catching up with friends over coffee, and spending time in a casino. Read it and enjoy!
