Take one sinfully handsome riverboat gambler, add a smart and stunning madam, and stir them up with murderous foul play and sizzling romance in An Impassioned Redemption. Self-made woman, Josephine Holland answers to no one. Owning a successful saloon and bordello, Jo keeps wayward women off the streets. Unlike her girls, she neither needs nor wants any man. That is, until she meets the wickedly attractive and intriguing Jameson Carter. Jameson Carter plays to win. From atop his lively riverboat, Jameson rules what he sees, and he has his sights set on one delectable lady. His odds of winning Jo’s affections are suddenly stacked against him, when a sequence of threatening events puts more than his heart in jeopardy. An unknown foe with a grudge and a trigger-happy finger . . . With their lives in danger, Jameson hopes to beat the odds and come out on top. Can Jo play the part of Lady Luck and save them both or has fate rolled the dice against them? Find out in An Impassioned Redemption.
