Elle Cosimano is at it again! I love that we have had the chance to become so familiar with these characters over the series. No spoilers, but seeing a different side of Vero was really refreshing. Watching Finlay become more commanding and enterprising and seeing how that bleeds over into her everyday life is so satisfying. I'm already ready for the next one!

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is book four in the Finlay Donovan series. This whole series has been a wild ride and this book was no exception. Finlay and Vero seem to always be in some sort of trouble and everything escalates. I had a blast reading this book, it picks up right where the third book left off and it was non stop shenanigans from there. Finlay and Vero go to Atlantic City to ‘rest’ and pretty much the whole family tags along. I’m excited to see where the series goes from here.

I've got to give a big shout-out to Netgalley and Elle Cosimano for hooking me up with this ARC. Seriously, I couldn't stop squealing when I got the approval. I've been a fan of Finlay and Vero's adventures, and with each new book, Elle just keeps upping the ante.

So, let's talk about this little escapade the girls go on in Atlantic City – it's a wild rollercoaster of action and thrills. Finlay's back in action, taking on the bad guys, and doing whatever it takes to protect her family and the guy she's head over heels for.

If you're a fan of this series, you're in for a treat. This book serves up all the excitement and keeps you glued to the pages. Elle Cosimano knows how to spin a tale that's impossible to put down. I'm telling you, fellow fans, don't miss out on this one!

Finlay Donovan keeps getting herself in more and more pickles with more and more dead bodies! This installment was a fun romp and presented a satisfying conclusion to some big story arcs while still preserving the hope that we might get to see more of Finlay!

FINLAY DONOVAN ROLLS THE DICE is the fourth book in the series by Elle Cosimano. While it can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend starting with the first book in order to get the most enjoyment. I’ve been smitten by this series from the very first and this newest release delivers Ms. Cosimano’s trademark zany humor and more! The protagonist, Finlay Donovan, and her sidekick (friend/nanny/accountant), Vero, are once again in over their heads...way over their heads. This time the action takes not only Finlay and Vero to Atlantic City, but tagging along are Finlay’s ex-husband, their two young children, and Finlay’s mother. To complicate a crowded situation even more as Finlay and Vero try to hide the bodies of two loan sharks while tracking down Vero’s kidnapped love interest, Finlay’s law enforcement boyfriend, and her cop sister, and her sister’s FBI love interest descend upon their hotel. The author’s twist and turns kept me glued to the story in this lightning-fast-paced read. With frequent laugh-out-loud scenes, there’s not one dull moment in the story. The witty banter between the characters only amps up the entertainment as they try to solve a well-plotted mystery while trying to keep themselves alive and out of prison. I highly recommend Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice to anyone who enjoys madcap humor and a great mystery.

LOVE Finlay and Vero’s adventures. This book was beautifully written with lots of twists and turns. I loved the details of the casino and traveling through Atlantic City. I enjoy how Finlay is writing a story similar to her life adventures for her own book too - it’s a fun connection! I wasn’t sure where the story would end because a lot of the loose ends were tied up at the end…knowing there are 2 more books in the series to be released. I like how the author has now involved the nosy neighbor.

I have a whole group of friends and family members I’ve convinced to read the series and every single one of them has loved the books!

I adore this series and book four did not disappoint. All the classic thriller, wrong place wrong time, hilarious one liners, insane plot, and lovable (and not so lovable) characters you know and absolutely adore in this book but we take our adventure on the road to Atlantic City!

I could not put this book down and seriously contemplated calling out of work to finish it but instead chose to stay up hours after I should have gone to bed so I could finish this story and find out how on earth Finlay and Vero get out of this one! And after everything is said and done once again the ending has me in hysterics and desperate to find out what happens in book 5…..which is very disappointing bc who knows how long I will have to wait in order to find out as book 4 doesn’t release until March 2024 and I was fortunate enough to receive an advanced review copy. Sigh. At last I will be drumming my fingers in desperate anticipation for the answers!

This book is an absolute must read. The whole series is funny, witty and entertaining. 10/10, five stars, and what every book club should make the book of the month. Preorder now and you won’t regret it.

I received this book as an advanced review copy and provide my honest opinions voluntarily.

Shout out to St Martins Press and Netgalley for giving me an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I absolutely love this series and this was no exception! Lots of shenanigans and moments to make you laugh!

I so enjoy all the Finlay Donovan books and this next addition is just as fun and exciting as the ones before. If you enjoyed any of Elle Cosimano's books, you will like this one too.

Finlay and Vero are the Thelma and Louise of this next generation. Is their story over the top? Yes! Could it happen in real life? Not likely. But it is such a fun read. Just sit back and enjoy the hilarious ride that Elle Cosimano is taking you on.

It's Weekend at Bernie's x The Hangover x Bridesmaids. It's funny, it's outrageous, and it gave me so many feels. Vero and Finlay are on the way to Atlantic City to rescue Javi, but Steven, Finlay's ex-husband can't seem to accept that Finlay is slipping from his grasp. So Steven, the kids, and grandma tag along.

Atlantic City has a lot of secrets. One being two dead guys in a tub that just started a countdown to getting the answers they need to find Javi. But when Sexy Cop Nick and sister, Georgia come into town with the FBI, all of Finlay's lies and secrets are threatened to be spilled.

This is book four so it feels like the series should come to an end, but it looks like Elle Cosimano may have something up her sleeves.

This is my favorite series and I'm sad I finished this book so quickly.  I love the characters, I love the 'fun' murder mystery. I would highly recommend starting with the first book and not jumping right into this one (and then binge read the rest of the series). 

I think that being a mom of young kids does help with the appeal of the series a bit, but there is enough plot to make it a good 'mystery'.

I think that the ending was great, it all came together in a way that made it feel like you could quit reading the series and feel fulfilled.. yet.. there's a little fun thrown in with the epilogue.

The fourth installment of Finlay Donovan might be the best yet!
I loved this book- the setting in Atlantic City was the perfect backdrop to (seemingly) wrap up all the storylines that have been brewing for the last 3 books.

It took me a little bit of time to get all of the characters straight in my mind- I had forgotten pieces of the earlier books & the character list just kept getting longer. However, It all came together and I loved the last 3rd of the book.

And the epilogue caught me completely off guard- I need the 5th book ASAP!

Finlay and Vero are back for another adventure, which involves a road trip to Atlantic City! The story picks up where the third book ended and brings the readers a chaotic Vegas-style vacation with a multiple of corpses, a stolen car, villains, surprise elopement, and an adorable doggo named Kevin Bacon. The shenanigans were high stakes, and the friendship between Finlay and Vero was still magnetic. Their witty banter and their support for each other is one of a kind. I was not too fond of the fact that there was not much romance building between Finlay and Nick, and I'm afraid that the secret Finlay has been holding will jeopardize her relationship with him. I like her with Nick, but this book did not expand on that as much as I would have liked. Their tension did add to the high stakes. The ending made me excited for the next potential book. We need answers and more Finlay and Vero adventures! Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice is a charismatic and laugh-out-loud story you should not miss!

Thank you to NetGallery and St. Martin Press for a copy of the book.

3.75 stars

Book 4 in the Finlay Donovan series by Elle Cosimano starts right where book 3 left off! Finlay and Vero are headed to Atlantic City under the guise of a girls trip, but we all really know they will be dealing with the mob and trying to rescue those they love. Finlay’s mother, ex-husband, kids, sister, hot cop beau Nick, and more, all tag along for the “fun.”

Following the same formula as the previous books we get lots of crazy shenanigans, a few laughs, some love, and an awesome book (I enjoyed this one more than the third book).

If you haven’t read these yet, what are you waiting for? Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for the advanced ecopy of this installment for my honest review.

Another delightfully fun filled vacation with Finn and Vero~ and along the way there is trouble
around every corner. Had they not had to drag the entire family, from an ‘ex’ a Mom and then
toss in a dog and all of the people looking for things and deciding whom they need to kill,+
a new lover, we’ll, really this is just how things roll with Finn!
This book is my favorite of the series, and now I cannot wait for the next installment.
While this book is well written to allow it to be read as a standalone, I would recommend
catching up because there is background to keep up with and the books are just so
much fun.
I would suggest them to people who enjoy “Barbacoa, Bomba and Betrayal,” by Raquel V. Reyes
and her series.
My thanks to St Martins Press, Minotaur Books, and NetGalley for providing this download
In exchange for my honest review. This book will be available 5 March 2024
(plenty of time to catch up !)

I couldn’t put this one down!! Another fun adventure with Finlay and Vero. Absolutely loved the addition of her mom in this one. The banter between Vero and the other characters always makes me laugh. There was enough of a reminder of the major plot points from the earlier books without feeling like a recap story. The new scenery in Atlantic City felt fresh. Overall, a really enjoyable read. (And Kevin Bacon really stole the show for me).

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Finlay Donovan and her family and friends are back in this fourth book of the series. I think this will be the final book. I have enjoyed all these books but especially this one. Finlay and Vero plan a girls weekend in Atlantic City and , of course, trouble follows them there. Her mom, ex-husband and kids end up tagging along for this adventure. Finlay's adventures always include dead bodies, mafia men and money. Will she finally come clean? Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC of this book. I really enjoyed this series.

Elle Cosimano does it again with Finlay Donovan Rolls the Dice.

A woman, her accountant/nanny/bestie, two small children, mom, and ex-husband walk into a Atlantic City Hotel/Casino... If this sounds like the perfect setup for an unputdownable, action-packed, hilarious romp, that's because it is! With competing mobsters, a cadre of cops and feds, kidnappers and kidnappees, a yappy dog, and a sexy boyfriend that won't let Finlay out of his sight, what started out as a girl's trip won't be a relaxing day at the spa. This over-the-top adventure packed a perfect punch.

Love love love me some Finlay Donovan. Sure, the hijinx are increasingly out of control and unbelievable (there’s always one or two that has me wanting to toss the book in frustration) but overall this series is just pure fun. I love the characters so much, especially Finlay and Vero. Honestly, Steven also kind of entertains me. We are definitely getting a fifth book and I just can’t wait. I will always recommend this series- it’s the perfect escape from reality, but also encapsulates motherhood in an incredibly honest and refreshing way.

This is probably my favorite book that I have received from netgalley in 2023. I was beyond excited to be accepted to review it. I am a huge Finlay Donovan fan after reading the first two books in the series. I am eagerly waiting the next Finlay book, but in the meantime I have also preordered this one. Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for letting me review this book!
