About this listen

"Dawe seamlessly captures the essence of each character, from Finlay and her partner-in-crime, Vero, to the diverse supporting cast. Particularly noteworthy is Dawe's skill in portraying the range of male characters...with heaps of suspense and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, this audiobook delivers entertainment from start to finish."—AudioFile

"The fantastic Angela Dawe returns as the series narrator. Dawe shines with her incredible ability to create unique dynamic voices for every character. From Finlay and Vero to a Russian mobster, a teenage gamer and Finlay’s hot cop boyfriend, each character is believable and memorable."—Booklist

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?

Critic reviews

“Cosimano’s fourth Finlay Donovan novel is brilliantly plotted, bringing the witty humor and thrilling, nail-biting action the series is known for while also tackling emotional family dynamics. Cosimano knocks this one out of the park. Highly recommended for all fans of the series.”—Booklist (starred review)

“Cosimano nails the tone—breezy but not too fluffy—and maintains a breakneck pace throughout. Readers who prefer their mysteries to lean madcap will eat this up.”—Publishers Weekly

“Another rollicking round of high-speed felonies for mystery author Finlay Donovan and those unwary enough to get pulled into her orbit... perfect escapist fare.”—Kirkus Reviews

CHEERIOS, Breakfast of Champions

Thank goodness Ms Elle is a great funny fast writer. Her wit and concise dialogue lets you enjoy a funny mystery adventure ,diaper bag and all. The publishers summary is spot on, so no need to add to it. I found this series as l love Ms Dawes accents for all her characters in it. It’s about the entertainment during the journey that makes you a fan of both author and narrator. If you are starting with this book, you will definitely go back and buy books one through three. as they show the development of each of the characters involved.
Check out sweet talk by Julie Garwood if you enjoyed this book. I do use the 1.5x speed as that brings the story to vivid life.

Easy Read/Listen

A predictable but cute listen. You need to read the proceeding books to understand the story.

Laughing on the Edge

Cate Holahan does it again with the 4th installment of the Findlay Donovan series. A fun rollercoaster ride of humor, mystery, and unexpected twists. Expertly read by Angela Dawe, the protagonist, who is equal parts endearing and flawed, takes you on a journey through the underworld of the mob, unexpected bonds of friendships and alliances, all set against the glitzy backdrop of Atlantic City’s gambling scene. Cate Holahan's writing is sharp, witty, and keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very last page. This book is a perfect blend of suspense and humor, making it a must for fans of both genres.

Best one yet!

This series just gets better and better! It’s delicious fun and keeps me teetering between edge of my seat and laughing out loud — farce meets crime novel in the best ways. I fall more and more in love with these characters too, and the narration is pure perfection! Keep em comin, Elle!

Great Series

Very addictive series. Like the characters and the suspense of the plots. Finley and her children plus ex-husband are so much fun. But it is the baby setter/best friend keeps it all going wrong. Family characters are plus that rounds out the the characters.

Elle Cosimano's writing is so engaging! I could not put it down (or turn it off).

I absolutely love this series and this last book did NOT disappoint!! Also, Andrea's performance was a 10/10.

The story line is intriguing and fun!

I love these books! I love that the sexy scenes don’t get graphic. The story is fun. I wish there weren’t so many F words.
