In bed with the Mob and married to the casino, Wolf has given up the idea of happiness. Being a member on the Council has its drawbacks, like participating in a war Wolf has grown tired of fighting, especially when the next hit lands one of his crew members in hot water. Wolf finds a welcome distraction in one of his customers—a card shark like him—and beyond her pretty face, something deeper starts to brew between them. It’s raw and instinctual, but as things heat up between them, so does the war with the Council’s enemies. Soon Wolf learns that his card shark isn’t who she seems—just another pawn to be used against the Council—and once he gets his hands on her, another war stirs inside of him. Wolf is having a hard time reconciling what his card shark did with what he feels for her. He knows what he should do—in his world, loyalty is everything, and even if she’s willing to change sides, it might not be enough to save her. The Council’s enemies are coming, and their only way out might be death. Trigger warnings can be found on website
