Love Be a Lady — Karen Sandler

When Reno blackjack dealer Casey Madison helped Jeff Haley trap a card cheater, she knew better than to let herself fall for Jeff. The drop dead gorgeous private investigator might seem like a perfectly nice fellow, but so had her quartet of former boyfriends, until one cleaned out her checking account and another nearly sold her car out from under her.

So Casey has sworn off men and wiped Jeff from her mind -- mostly. But when the card cheater, newly released from prison, starts stalking Casey, the first person she wants to call is Jeff. It turns out she doesn't even have to pick up the phone for help, because just as she spots the card cheater lurking outside her casino, Jeff Haley walks right up to her blackjack table, as if out of a dream.

Jeff Haley doesn't believe in love, especially when it involves a wacky blonde named Casey. But thanks to a mix-up at a computer repair shop, scandalous photos from Jeff's latest case were copied onto Casey's flash drive instead of his. It ought to be easy to get the flash drive from Casey and copy off his photos.

But Casey sent the drive down to her sister in San Diego, and refuses to let him go to her sister's without her. To make matters even worse, she's afraid of flying, which means a long car trip to Southern California with the sweet and sexy blonde right beside him. And when the jaunt to San Diego turns into a tri-state road trip with the card cheater in hot pursuit, Jeff realizes the lovely Casey might just be too hard to resist.
