Ski instructor Ellie Montgomery hits Vegas during a romance convention to meet the man of her dreams…only, the man of her dreams isn’t the cover model she’s there to see. He’s the hot-as-sin bodyguard who catches her sneaking in the back door of a meet-and-greet, and he seems more than ready to do what it takes to prove he’s twice the man her pretty boy crush could ever be.
Jax Mathis couldn’t resist snagging a date with Ellie, but he didn’t count on the attraction being more than physical. They connect on a level he didn’t think possible—and he can’t run fast enough. She makes him want things he thought he’d never have, and maybe, just maybe, they’re within reach. But to have it, he’ll have to face the one mountain he swore he’d never climb…and with no guarantee she’ll be waiting on the other side.

Summary
I had enjoyed Tempted by Mr Write in the What Happens in Vegas series so I was excited to start on Gambling with the Bodyguard. The story started out fun. Ellie has lost her coveted ticket in to an invitation only event to meet the cover model of her dreams. As she tries to sneak into the event she runs into one of his bodyguards Jax. Jax blackmails her into a date with the promise of introducing her to the cover model. The author created backstories for Ellie and Jax in the attempt to create more than just a Vegas sex story. I loved Jax and Ellie was likeable. The story was just too trashy for me. I realize the setting was vegas but I didn’t expect the foul language to be extreme.
