The Alexandra Merritt Mysteries

Las Vegas casino owner, Alberto Minnelli, has everything a man could want; wealth, power, family, friends, and a woman he loves. The only thing he needs that he can't buy, is time. He finds there are still three people on his list, his nephew, Michael Bart, whom he raised as a son, his beautiful, young, talented Director of Entertainment, Alexandra Merritt, and Dr. Zachary Peters. Before it's too late, Alberto wants to care for two of them, and he intends to kill the third.

When feisty redhead Alexandra Merritt inherits a Las Vegas casino, she finds she has her hands full. In addition to learning the ins and outs of running the Desert Flower, she must learn to deal with the famous and the infamous. Hot-shot athletes, movie stars, hookers, and stand-up comics come to her establishment, and when more than one of them winds up dead, Alex becomes embroiled in a mystery as hot as the Nevada desert. Alex isn't sure who wants her dead, but she better figure it out before the Desert Flower becomes Vegas's next morgue.
