Part of Series

I ruined a man’s life because I trusted the wrong person. That mistake turned my name radioactive. Vegas forgives risk, not failure—and I learned fast that loyalty only goes one way when you’re the daughter no one ever wanted. Rosebud Investigations kept me alive, off-grid, and untouchable… Until the Shadow Brides called with a contract I couldn’t refuse. One year. One groom. Dante Valera—owner of Obsidian, king of Vegas, and the man who hates me most. He needs me to save his empire. I need him to help destroy my mother. Attraction doesn’t make us allies. Danger doesn’t make us enemies. Marriage doesn’t make us safer. It makes us lethal. He might own the city. But I own the game. I’m Opal Greer. And when I gamble, I never fold.

Sara McClaflin writes dark romance with feelings, flaws, and just the right amount of emotional damage. Her stories are character-driven, morally gray, and often ask one very important question: what if love was a little dangerous—and we liked it that way? After years of reading and reviewing books with too much angst, she finally started writing her own. She lives on the West Coast with her husband, their chaotic dog, and more book boyfriends than she’s willing to admit. Her TBR pile is a cry for help, her playlists are 80% heartbreak, and she’s always chasing the next character who’ll ruin her in the best way.
