Looking for Leon by Shirley Benton

*****5 stars
LOVED IT! Benton's first book will grab you from the beginning and have you enjoying every bit of it. There are twists and turns and back story that will have you going through many emotions. The characters are all very real and I especially loved the setting of Las Vegas. I truly was sad to see this end, and I will be on a look out for her future books.

Book Jacket Description:
What would you do to find the one that got away? Andie hadn't gambled on meeting the love of her life on a holiday in Las Vegas but when she meets Leon, love suddenly seems like a bet she can win. That is, until the wheel of fortune steps in and separates them during a fire drill. With next to no info on Leon, Andie finds it impossible to track him down despite staging a series of publicity stunts to get the media in on the act. Back in Ireland, journalist Andie begins to write a regular newspaper column about her search. Readers love it and a local TV station flies her back to Vegas to take up the hunt for the man she can t forget. What starts off as a simple low-budget documentary, spirals into a frenzied national media search. With the world's most ambitious PR agent on board, Andie becomes a heroine for those who are looking for love. But does Leon want to be found?
