Esme will do anything to escape her half-brother Zeno’s control—even if it means striking a dangerous deal with Aidon Erebus, the ruthless king of Las Vegas’s underworld. She needs his help to steal the one thing that could bring Zeno’s empire down. Aidon doesn’t trust easily, and Esme’s connection to Zeno makes her a risk he shouldn’t take. But her mix of defiance and desperation draws him in, blurring the line between betrayal and desire. In a game where secrets are weapons and hearts are collateral, who will win—and who will fall?
