Get ready for a wild ride in Las Vegas
Jamie Miller and Izzy Ingham, British girls, best friends, and 27-year-old singles, are determined to kick "Project Presley" into action -- they fly to Las Vegas to find a husband there. No matter that Izzy already has a fiancé back at home or that Jamie is still haunted by the memories of her first love, the girls finally want to meet their dream man. While Izzy seems to be content with any rich man, Jamie wishes for a soulmate. On their "manhunt," the girlfriends fall for strippers, businessmen, Elvis, a knight, and a merman -- but does each of them end up with their Prince Charming?

"Divas Las Vegas" is the first book of the British author Belinda Jones -- and what a debut novel she wrote! She captures the essence of Las Vegas as entertainment capital of the world, using that extraordinary city as background of her protagonists' quest for love -- and for finding themselves. The result is a hilarious, romantic, and utterly entertaining book which I read twice in the same year even though romances aren't my first reading choice. Throughout the story, Belinda Jones often refers to current popular culture, thus making her novel more authentic and easy to relate to.

The book's bright pink cover with its title written in capital pastel-colored letters and the glittering stars are a real eyecatcher -- the first hint of glamorous Las Vegas. Normally, I don't choose (or judge) books by their covers, but "Divas Las Vegas" did spark my interest because of this outstanding cover. Fortunately, the cover holds its promise, so don't hesitate to pick up your own book copy.

A great read
A great read and a book that you will not be able to put down.

Hilarious
This is a great book; extremely funny with great characters. You will love Jamie and her pals as they explore Las Vegas and hit the big-time. A really excellent, beach novel - if you like British "Chick-Lit" you will not be disappointed.
