Publisher Description
I know exactly why it turns you on . . . because you're messed up too.
Asha's life is no fairytale, by any stretch of the imagination. There was no kind, generous father to care for and protect her from the Vegas that exists beyond the glitz and glamour of The Strip. No wise, doting mother to look over and guide her, passing down essential lessons and leading her to the right path. And certainly, no Prince Charming just around the corner, ready to rescue her from working late nights to cover steadily mounting bills.
You're not born to sharks without becoming one yourself.
In Vegas, King is exactly what his name implies. Born into money and influence, but respected—and feared—in his own right. The privileges of wealth have afforded him many things, freedom, power, massive eligibility—while simultaneously leaving him exposed to others: betrayal, exploitation, and manipulation.
Like attracts like . . .
Her poker face has kept her alive all this time, and he keeps his cards close to his chest. Neither is interested in gambling their hearts, but when they can't stay away from each other, there's only one choice . . . ante up.
Contains mature themes.
