A trip to Vegas with my besties seemed like the perfect way to blow off steam and start over after my divorce. Sin City comes with risks and temptations... But what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas… right?

Lady Luck lands Jake at my blackjack table and the attraction is instant. We have a shared love of numbers and helping others. When I realize he’s a card-counter like me, it’s a fate Trifecta!

He’s handsome, charming, and a wealthy entrepreneur. Oh, and minor detail—he’s ten years my junior.

Card counting isn’t illegal, but it’s definitely a no-no, and it comes with dire consequences… IF you get caught.

My secret past was the scandal of the century at MIT twenty years ago, but it’s also what prepared me for my daring proposal to Jake: Team up to game the house, WIN BIG and pay it forward. Become the modern-day Robin Hoods of Vegas.

We're killing it at the high-stakes tables. The rush of the game is only matched by the intensity of our feelings.

But the cards hold secrets that are about to catch up with both of us.

When we discover another common denominator—Jake is my best friend’s brother—it’s clear the odds are stacked against us and our unconventional love story.

Do we fold, or double down and go all in?

Because, isn't love just another gamble?
