As if losing the war to the Yankees hadnβt been bad enough, Lottie Mason now needed $15,000 to keep her ailing father out of prison. The only place she could think of to get that kind of money was a riverboat poker tournament. Problem was, she didnβt know a thing about playing cards.
Dyer Straights may have been the best cardsharp in New Orleans, but the true goal of this hardened gunslinger was vengeance, not profit. He didnβt have time for a beautiful belle who wouldnβt take no for an answer. So to scare her off, he upped the ante with a proposition: Heβd give her the lessons she was so desperate for. And if she won the jackpot, sheβd owe him one naked night in his bed. He didnβt realize she couldnβt afford to refuse.
As the cards are dealt and the seduction deepens, the two find theyβre taking a gamble on a lot more than a good hand and a one-night standβtheyβre betting on a lifetime of love.
