Kerryn Whitsig is at the end of her rope. In an act of desperation, she takes the last of her money and gambles it all away. Unskilled at cards, the casino she goes to sees people like her all the time. The house always wins.

Tonight, though, Celia Harrison walks onto the casino floor and sees the woman, her desperation, determination, and possibilities. Kerryn's luck changes in an instant.

In payment, she feels she must thank this sophisticated and incredible woman for the assistance. Celia didn't ask anything for her aid but couldn't resist the kisses the woman bestowed upon her. Kerryn finds herself in bed with the woman, having the most amazing sex of her life.

Celia wants more than a one-night stand, though. She wants forever, and Kerryn is frightened not only to take the chance but also to gamble on their future.
