Thanks for checking out the blog tour for Trick Roller, the second book in the Seven of Spades series!
We rejoin Levi and Dominic three months after the events of Kill Game. Although most of Las Vegas believes the Seven of Spades is dead, our two heroes know better. It’s only a matter of time until the killer resurfaces…
New Characters
Trick Roller introduces several new secondary characters to the Seven of Spades universe. While there wasn’t room for these characters in Kill Game, all four play vital roles in the rest of the series.
Leila Rashid
A new arrival to the District Attorney’s office, prosecutor Leila Rashid initially rubs Levi the wrong way with her blunt, aggressive manner. She and Levi soon realize they have far more in common than they think, but what brought Leila to Vegas in the first place?
Jay Sawyer
Cocky, vain defense attorney Jay Sawyer rarely takes anything seriously, and has never made a secret of his attraction to Levi. His arrogance is outstripped only by his stellar record in court, but there may be more to this hotshot playboy than meets the eye.
Adriana Velazquez
A sixteen-year-old runaway from Reno, Adriana has been living on the streets of Las Vegas for months when her path crosses Levi’s. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start, and neither one of them anticipates how much that meeting will change their lives.
Kate McBride
As Dominic attempts to transition from bounty hunter to private investigator, he takes an internship at McBride Investigations, one of the city’s top-tier firms. The third person in her family to direct the agency, Kate McBride is a no-nonsense woman with only one soft spot – her beautiful showgirl wife Moira.
About Trick Roller
It’s the height of summer in Las Vegas. Everyone believes the serial killer Seven of Spades is dead—except Levi Abrams and Dominic Russo—and it’s back to business as usual. For Levi, that means investigating a suspicious overdose at the Mirage that looks like the work of a high-class call girl, while Dominic pursues a tough internship with a local private investigator. The one bright spot for both of them is their blossoming relationship.
But things aren’t so simple. Soon Levi is sucked into a dangerous web of secrets and lies, even as his obsession with the Seven of Spades intensifies. Dominic knows that Levi isn’t crazy. He knows the Seven of Spades is still out there, and he’ll do anything to prove it. But Dominic has his own demons to battle, and he may be fighting a losing war.
One thing is certain: the Seven of Spades holds all the cards. It won’t be long before they show their hand.

About the Seven of Spades Series
Las Vegas has never seen a serial killer like the Seven of Spades.
The self-styled vigilante is on a mission to cut down the wicked and treacherous, and Sin City has no shortage of targets for their bloody wrath. What happens in Vegas . . . ends with the Seven of Spades’s calling card on a grisly corpse.
Standing against the killer are Levi Abrams, a dedicated homicide detective locked in a constant struggle to restrain his own dark side, and bounty hunter Dominic Russo, a charming rogue with a heavy secret weighing on his shoulders.
The hunt for the Seven of Spades sends Levi and Dominic on a collision course, igniting a passionate relationship forged in conflict and sealed with blood. Together they’re stronger than the sum of their parts, but a wily, elusive serial killer isn’t the only threat that will strain their bond to the breaking point.
Ante up, because the Seven of Spades is all in. Are you?
