About the Book
The Excelsior Hotel and Casino. Built in Las Vegas in 1960 by mobster Louis “The Lip” LaFica. For decades the towering hotel has been the subject of incredible stories and rumors that have kept it in the public eye the world around. Why have so many lovers been mysteriously, magically, magnetically drawn to this magnificent edifice? And why now have so many bestselling authors at last come together to reveal the adventures of these lovers who have stayed at the glorious Excelsior?
Delighted to be a part of this anthology with so many wonderful authors. My contribution is Love at the Las Vegas Bake-Off. For those of you who’ve read my Small Town USA Contemporary trilogy, Peggy and her sister run the Apple Grove Diner. Peggy does the baking, and Katie, the cooking.
It all started when Peggy McCormack overnights one of her Buttermilk Pies to a certain lawman she can’t forget–US Marshal Ben Justiss. When Peggy’s life is threatened after entering the Las Vegas Bake-Off, Ben begins to wonder if Peggy’s lips are as sweet as her Buttermilk Pie.
