Review of "Vice" By: Rosanna Leo



"Vice" By: Rosanna Leo
Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆

So many dimensions to this read and these characters.

Kate is well aware of the consequences of what happens when a loved one is addicted to gambling.  They will destroy the family, take every last penny and won't take responsibility.  That's why she helps others in the same situation.  With new casino Vice due to open, she is spurred on to take action and draw attention to the downside of gambling.  What she doesn't count on is falling for Liam the sexy casino owner.  As she falls deeper, she becomes conflicted as what he stands for is against her values.

Liam hugely benefits from his time with Kate.  His eyes are opened to the downside of gambling.  He is forced to look at his own actions and his decisions.  But she very quickly becomes his vice and he falls and falls big. 

This was an insightful look at the not so glamorous side of gambling and our susceptibility to vices.  Liam and Kate were interesting strong characters who challenged each other in the right way to be better people.  As a first read by this author I will be coming back to her again in the future as her storytelling is top notch.
