Oh this series needs to become a TV show!! I enjoyed this road trip with Finlay and her sidekick.

Everyone and i mean everyone is on their way to Atlantic City, of course mayhem occurs where ever Finlay and Vero go. Adding in her mother, ex husband, and kids along with some other crazy characters!

I highly recommend reading the first books before this one! I don't wanna give anything away or it will ruin the book!

Y’all, these two are up to their impossible shenanigans again and I AM HERE FOR IT! Since book one, I’ve been along for the ride as Finlay and Vero get themselves into one mess after another and YET ALWAYS find their way out. I’m going with women’s intuition as their superpower. Never doubt a women’s ability to get things done 😆

The ending of this one is very much a cliffhanger and I’m eager to jump back into the chaotic madness that is Finlay and Vero in book 5!

I love a good road trip moment!

In this one, Finlay and Vero end up on a road trip to Atlantic City, with Finlay’s ex husband, her two kids, and her mother-trying to solve a ransom note- what an adventure already!

I can't say more, as this book follows book 3 immediately, so you def need to read the other books to continue on.

I feel like this was coming back to the Finlay Donovan I know and loved from the first two books.

Are the books becoming more chaotic and unhinged? Yes. Am I loving it still? Yes.

This book feels very lighthearted, and really makes me love this series so much!

Thank you to Minotaur Books for the copy through Netgalley!

I absolutely love the Finlay Donovan Series. I was hooked from the very first page. However, this book wasn't grabbing my attention as much as the previous books. Although I still found parts of the book, funny, witty, and heartwarming, it just didn't cut it for me. I do love getting to hear more about Vero. I would still recommend this book because it is Finlay Donovan, and I absolutely love and adore Elle.

I just thoroughly enjoy these books.

Are they realistic? Absolutely not , but that’s why I love them. They’re such an escape from reality.

Definitely don’t think of this as a thriller. Think of it as I Love Lucy meets cozy mysteries.

I can’t wait to see what is next for Finlay and Vero.

Thanks to NetGalley for this copy. So much fun.

I love a good Finlay Donovan book, and will continue to read about her offbeat antics for as long as they're published.I liked this fourth book better than the third, and look forward to future installments. They're always a solid, reliable, fun read.

Finlay is and always will be lifegiving. I read this a long time ago, and I am upset I did not review it earlier, but it really was the absolute best! I think this was my favorite Finlay ever. I will always, always, always be team Detective Nick; but my word if I will not also always be team Finn and Vero!

I would read anything that has Finlay Donovan, and I stand by that. I will say this was my least favorite in the series so far though, but I will happily continue on with the series.

This one just felt kinda different, and it dragged on a bit for me. It didn’t feel as fun and didn’t seem to have as much chaos as the others didn’t, but it could be because I started to lose interest.

Dare I say this was the one installment that didn't have my full buy in? I have LOVED Finlay Donovan everything, but this one just fell flat. I think I need to listen on audio like I had all of the others. BUT - with that being said, I loved to road trip, still loved the banter, I laughed, I cried, I mean it still hit the nail on the head in so many ways, I just wasn't entirely obsessed like I had been with the others. I'll follow back up after I listen on audio on my Goodreads so that I can truly vet my emotions.

I am sorry for the inconvenience but I don’t have the time to read this anymore and have lost interest in the concept. I believe that it would benefit your book more if I did not skim your book and write a rushed review. Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Finlay Donovan just has such a special place in my heart. The outrageous nature of these books suck me in every single time. Finlay Donovan Rolls The Dice was no different.

I’m so in love with these characters at this point. I had so much fun reading all the crazy twist and turns our characters had to go through. The setting was also such a blast to live in. And that cliff hanger at the end! I need the next book asap!
4/5 Stars

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for sending me an arc copy in exchange for my honest review.

I love the Finlay Donovan series and this latest addition was no exception. The humor, chaos and mystery is such a fun read. The hijinks that Finlay and Vero get into are hilarious and unexpected but overall it works. The characters are well developed and the banter they have is great. I am really looking forward to what Elle Cosimano does next.

pre-read: I’m in the quarter into book 3 and wondering if there was going to be a fourth — safe to say that I’m thrilled for this one already

post-read: Finlay! I missed you (and Vero) so much. And I got one of my favourite plots: road trips! And family ones are always thrilling lmao. I enjoyed reading this fun and chaotic plot so much.

Nick, Silvia, the kids, and Finlay’s mom were real ones as well. I love all the characters, even Steven cause he was hilarious (especially the part where he was dealing with the hotel manager and the kids). They all have such a crazy dynamic with Finlay and Vero which made this adventure so much fun.

Finlay and Nick are so hot. She’s me as a writer.

I hope we get more from Finlay Donovan.

Thank you, Netgalley, for the ARC!

Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice is book four in the Finlay Donovan mystery series by Elle Cosimano and was just as much fun as books one-three. I grabbed this one on audio. Like the others in the series, I found myself practically covering my eyes, wondering how in the heck Finlay and Vero would get out of the crazy situations and I love going along for the ride. The dialogue is so hilarious between the characters–I love them all, even the bad ones! The ending certainly piqued my interest and I look forward to reading more. Give me more hilarious and a bit steamy mysteries and I will happily suspend my disbelief and jump right in.

This was another great add to the Finley Donovan series! I must say, after book three I was a little hesitant to pick up another because I felt like Finley and Vero’s story just kept getting more and more far-fetched. But a change in location and some high stakes intense situations made book four an exciting page turner! Thank you, NetGalley, for the ARC!

3.75 star but I rounded up to 4!

This one was a boost up from the last. I felt like Finlay was finally in her element.

The build up in this series is both serious and so silly. They get out of situations JUST IN TIME. I feel like it is equivalent to watching scooby doo but with a lot more mature topics and of course some cute romance in the mix.

This one picks up right where the last one left off, and as much as I read and re-read to make sure there were no loose ends, I could not find any which is super impressive considering the absolute chaos and messiness Vero and Finlay get into.

I think this one was among my fav in the series because the ending was left for interpretation, while it also opened it up for a new book.

KEEP THEM COMING!

This one was a winner! I love following along in the escapades of Finaly and Vero. The Atlantic City setting of book #4 was fun and there was never a dull moment. I loved how we finally got a glimpse into Vero's life and she was just as much a MC as Finlay. I did get all the side characters/mob participants confused throughout the story, yet I still enjoyed the ride. There were a lot of tense moments balanced by comedic relief. If you love the Finlay Donovan series, this installment won't disappoint! The ending was a bit of a cliffhanger, so I expect we will be getting more of this story!

“But I’m telling you, Finlay, this book is good. This whole series is good. The plots may be a little far-fetched, but these characters are so real! It’s like they just leap off the page!”

I love this series so much!! This book immediately picks up where the last one let off; and as Vero and Finlay attempt to flee town to solve some issues from the previous book, they end up on a road trip to Atlantic City with Finlay's mom, ex-husband, and the two kids in tow. Matters are further complicated when various members of the local police show up, investigating people and events that Finlay may have ties to...

I found aspects of the third book to be a little too far afield for this story; and I wasn't a huge fan of the insular police academy setting. This one really returned to the roots of this series while also using a fresh new setting of Atlantic City. I loved the use of hotels and casinos to drive the plot. It all felt so real, and I would watch the heck out of a limited series of this on TV.

If you have read any parts of this series, you know that it's all really one big plot. This fourth book wraps up that major overarching plot, but leaves room for more things to be explored in later installments if the author wishes. I sincerely hope she keeps writing more books, because I would love to read more of Nick and Finlay's relationship and tie up a few remaining loose ends that have intentionally been left unspooled.

FINLAY DONOVAN ROLLS THE DICE
by ELLE COSIMANO

72 hours not to die
2 sticky toddlers in tow
An ex she may murder.

This fourth instalment in the Finlay Donovan did not disappoint.

This book is a road trip to Atlantic City with :

- [ ] Finlay,
- [ ] her nanny and partner in crime Vero,
- [ ] both toddlers ,
- [ ] Findlay’s mother
- [ ] and her ex Steven.

As the bungle their way through another series of events, it is very humorous.

I enjoyed this, as I have all the other books in this series.

I highly recommend this if want a nice easy read.

Thank you Netgalley and Minotaur books for the arc.

Finlay and Vero at a citizen's police academy can only mean mayhem & we sure get that here. Nick takes a big role in this book which I loved and we get Julian Baker too for a bit of fun. I could not be more intrigued by Mrs. Haggerty, the elderly neighbor. She's definitely a character to watch and I'm looking forward to more of her story. This one ends in a cliffhanger that had me ready to jump into book 4!
