He's a poker king, a mafia prince, and royalty to women. A deliberate loner, he gives you his body, but never his heart. Women find both his eyes and their sheets cold the next day.

I’m hired as his new cocktail waitress, and my own losses allow me to see the real pain behind his sins. He’s not what he appears to be, but fixing him isn’t possible.

I should listen to my past and stay away. Instead, he lures me into his underworld where vice and fortune thrive. He’s a wickedly hot, illegal addiction. Dangerous. Seductive. Forbidden.

I’m not just betting my heart on him. I’m wagering my life.
