I wasn't in the market for a man. I definitely wasn't looking for a man like Clay Nichols, with a dirty mind and a mouth to match.

I'm a wanted woman, and I owe debts that were never mine. The dangerous men I owe have threatened to hurt anyone in my life if I don't pay up. So I work off my debts by playing cards in an underground poker ring. One so risky I shouldn't get involved with a soul.

My sexy-as-sin husband and I are living our best life together in Manhattan. Clay and I dote on our little girl, enjoy thriving careers, and indulge in the best nights together ever. But when competition rears its head in my bar business, I have to pull out all the stops to show I’m not a one-hit wonder in my field.

I should have known my uncle would never allow it. They say all’s fair in love and war, but sometimes they’re the same thing. And nothing about this is fair. I should be a happy newlywed, burning dinner and stealing kisses. Instead, I’m a pawn for powerful men to fight over. But they’ve underestimated my husband.

Some women are impossible to forget no matter how hard you try. Believe me, I've tried. I've done everything I can to get the gorgeous, captivating, sexy-as-sin Julia Bell out of mind since she skipped out after one seductive weekend together. Trouble is, I can’t. Since she’s in my heart. And when I run into her at her sister’s wedding, she falls into my arms again, and my bed. Finally, she tells me everything, and it’s my turn - my turn to help her find her way out of the trouble that’s been chasing her.

I thought if I let her go, she’d come back when she was ready. I didn’t expect her to take my heart with her. Being gifted a second chance was the prayer I’d been hoping for. Until it all fell apart again when a question she wasn’t ready for, met an answer I didn’t want to hear. Now she’s gone. And I’m engaged to someone else for all the wrong reasons.
