The Gambler by Raquel Belle

Up till now, the most action that Lilly Madison ever got was fooling around in the back seat of some guy’s car. She’s a “nice” girl, and even though she’s turning 25 years old today…she’s holding out for Mr. Right.
She’s just a small-town girl from Missouri with modest dreams. The kind of dreams that don’t look like much when you’re constantly being overshadowed by your twin sister.
Yeah…twins, and aside from the fact that they’re identical, they’re like chalk and cheese. Nobody ever notices Lilly when Deanna is in the room.
That’s until Deanna decides to fly Lilly out to Vegas to celebrate their birthday.
In Vegas, “good girls” are as rare as unicorns…and that’s why she catches the eye of David Milner.

David is the alpha of all alphas. Vegas is HIS city. He’s a billionaire. He owns two casinos and runs them like well-oiled machines. His name commands a respect that he’s earned. He’s the best poker player in town and he hates cheaters.
So here’s where things get interesting…
Somehow between partying it up with her friends and her sister, Deanna manages to get in to a high-stakes game in a back room with David himself. (David really invited her so he could get a better look at Lilly.)

She goes from $650,000 (A treasure trove to a cocktail waitress!) to ZERO. She refuses to walk away and calls David a cheater. Deanna insists on one more hand…double or nothing. Knowing she can’t possibly pay the $1.3 million if she loses, David suggests wagering Lilly.
It’s her choice of course…no pressure. Either her sister walks out a millionaire, or Lilly spends the week with David. Sure, she’s afraid, but curious too. What would it be like…to be with a man as powerful as him?

Drunk Deanna versus our veteran, card-shark, alpha-male hero? No contest. Of course David wins!
And Lilly is in for the sexual awakening of her young life as David takes her in every way imaginable!

But could there ever be something more between them than just sex? Could a girl like Lilly, who’s most prized possession is her recipe book, make it in a town full of high-rollers and gangsters…a town with danger around every corner? Where maybe David is the most dangerous of all?

Can David finally let go of his checkered past and make a better future for himself?
