Book Description

Release Date: Nov 11 2003 | Series: Samurai Girl (Book 4)
When I was six months old, I dropped from the sky -- the lone survivor of a deadly Japanese plane crash. The newspapers named me Heaven. I was adopted by a wealthy family in Tokyo, pampered, and protected. For nineteen years, I thought I was lucky.

I'm learning how wrong I was.

I'VE LOST EVERYTHING.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME,

BUT THE PERSON I LOVE WON'T BE IN IT.

IT'S TIME TO START OVER.

LAS VEGAS IS A TOWN FOR GAMBLERS AND COWBOYS.

ONE GAMBLER HAS FOUND ME -- -AND HE WANTS TO RISK IT ALL.

BUT MY HEART ISN'T IN THE GAME.

I ONLY HAVE ONE GOAL NOW:

TO STAY ALIVE.

I AM SAMURAI GIRL.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book is swift and fun! Nov 3 2003
By "danceuponamoonbeam"
Format:Paperback
Heaven by a twist of fate escapes a house fire in this latest edition of this electric series. With a reluctant goodbye to Hiro she's off to the dazzle of Las Vegas where she seeks an old friend. In Las Vegas one can be blown wayward on their path and Heaven says Hello to an old friend-Katie and a new bubbly friend-Mr. Alcohol which she had a wild, reckless and ultimately humiliating relationship with in Book 3 The book of the Pearl (remember the jelly fish scene?). The alcohol misuse aside this is a fun, fast paced book. We see a new side of Teddy which makes him a more multi dimensional character and something very sweet and wonderful happens at the end (quess cuz I'm not going to tell!:)
All in all a great book in the series. And if you look at the end of the book there is a preview of another book (from a wonderful series) Fearless.

2.0 out of 5 stars Messy Mar 11 2013
By Edward Maher - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
Too much dialog, no satisfying transition to a sequel. Liked the tv series, but the book is disappointing. Will no purchase the next one. Sorry, but there are many more books that did a better job. Another whinny, love struck child that has to have a man to survive. And, not just one, but anyone that drops in. Makes promises she doesn't plan to keep and can't focus. How this was made into the TV series I can't begin to fathom. I wanted to like the book, but can't honestly continue.
