Audrey's father is a poker shark, and now that she's well into her 30s, she's thinking that maybe poker is her destiny, too. With Big Louie as her mentor, Audrey embarks on a poker odyssey that lands her in Las Vegas. But what about her devoted boyfriend, Joe? And her plans for marriage and children and career? As she gambles for high stakes, the heroine of this witty novel learns about more than poker. Before she turned to writing fiction, the author, Louise Wener, was the lead singer for the British pop band Sleeper. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
