From New York Times bestseller Elle Cosimano comes Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice--the fiercely anticipated next installment in the beloved Finlay Donovan series.
"Finlay Donovan is irresistible!"--Janet Evanovich
Finlay Donovan and her nanny/partner-in-crime Vero are in sore need of a girls' weekend away. They plan a trip to Atlantic City, but odds are--seeing as it's actually a cover story to negotiate a deal with a dangerous loan shark, save Vero's childhood crush Javi, and hunt down a stolen car--it won't be all fun and games. When Finlay's ex-husband Steven and her mother insist on tagging along too, Finlay and Vero suddenly have a few too many meddlesome passengers along for the ride.
Within hours of arriving in their seedy casino hotel, it becomes clear their rescue mission is going to be a bust. Javi's kidnapper, Marco, refuses to negotiate, demanding payment in full in exchange for Javi's life. But that's not all--he insists on knowing the whereabouts of his missing nephew, Ike, who mysteriously disappeared. Unable to confess what really happened to Ike, Finlay and Vero are forced to come up with a new plan: sleuth out the location of Javi and the Aston Martin, then steal them both back.
But when they sneak into the loan shark's suite to search for clues, they find more than they bargained for--Marco's already dead. They don't have a clue who murdered him, only that they themselves have a very convincing motive. Then four members of the police department unexpectedly show up in town, also looking for Ike--and after Finlay's night with hot cop Nick at the police academy, he's a little too eager to keep her close to his side.
If Finlay can juggle a jealous ex-husband, two precocious kids, her mother's marital issues, a decomposing loan shark, and find Vero's missing boyfriend, she might get out of Atlantic City in one piece. But will she fold under the pressure and come clean about the things she's done, or be forced to double down?

4.5 starsI’ve been binge-reading this series, and I gotta say, Elle Cosimano takes the wild energy of the previous books and cranks it up to full-blown Atlantic City chaos—and it still works in the most ridiculous way.This time around Finlay and Vero head to Atlantic City (with the family circus!) on a mission to rescue Javi. What starts as a not-so-simple plan spirals completely out of control into murder, casino shenanigans, male strippers, and a whole lot of improvising. The setting adds a fresh layer to the series, and I loved seeing Finlay and Vero doing what they do best: barely staying alive and making it up as they go.The found family vibes are strong in this one, and the relationships (romantic and otherwise) have more depth than ever. The chemistry is sizzling, the friendships are rock solid, and the character development really shines through in this one.The plot sometimes leans so far into absurdity that it stretched believability—but honestly, at this point in the series, I kind of love that about it. And, yes, I have downloaded #5, and I'm ready to roll ;)
I love that there is more on Joey and Cam and let’s be honest…Nick. I like that she finally had Steve get his. It was just all around character development for everyone.
This series does not disappoint! The characters feel like friends, and the loose ends are all tied up. Read them in order!
What a brilliant brilliant woman you are Elle Cosimano!! 🤩 when I begin a new book of Finlay I start worrying because “it can’t be better than the one before” and every time I finished I’ve said “this one was better than the one before and my favourite”.
Findlay Donovan’s Rolls the Dice is a wild ride. Findlay and Vero continue to resolve all the crazy adventures of the day.
