*****5 Stars*****
In this book we have Scarlet, she's been through something that's very deep and personal. She closed her self off to everyone in her life. She thinks the further the she pushes people away, from family to friends the less chance she has to feel anything.
That is until she meets Theo Saxon.
Theo is her new boss at an underground gambling society. Theo is a man of little words, but big on brooding.
There's this instant spark between these two, it builds til it explodes.
I loved everything from the cover, characters, and even plot of this book. It went places I wasn't expecting and just when you thought that something couldn't get any worse it did.
A good bit of the story revolves around Texas Holdem, even if you're not a person family with the game, the author picked a brilliant way to explain it to get the reader familiar with the aspect of it.
Then it came to the ending, let me just say I hope Ms. Allison is plugging away at the keys to get part two out.
This was my first time reading this author and I would read her books again.

It's too bad for Scarlet that no matter how sweet a person is, fate can still screw you over.
Now she’s jaded, half of her torn away and the remainder flesh and bones. In her grief, all Scarlet wants to do is to rebel against the life that betrayed her and her roommate provides the perfect lure...
Scarlet awakens when she enters the New York City underground, where vice and fortunes thrive. Hustling, trickery and savagery allow her to discover her true self—-her forgotten soul reemerging. She just can’t promise it’ll come back pure.
It won’t matter that there is a shadow in her periphery. Theo Saxon thinks he can save Scarlet from a world she craves and protect her from the very elements he’s spawned from. But it's through his unwitting instruction that Scarlet will become a part of his league and find the danger he wants so badly to keep to himself.
Scarlet thinks the stakes are within her control. But she won't just be betting her heart on Theo and his seductive sins. She will wager her life.
