Description:

Tess Bonner is naïve and desperate. She’s lost her parents along with the family money. Her easy life hasn’t prepared her to be anything but a privileged society wife. When an opportunity falls in her lap, she can’t pass it up. A girl has to eat.

Sheriff Zachery Maitland is intent on ridding wholesome Springville, Texas of the gambling outfit that’s taken hold. There’s a sinister feel to the man he suspects is running it and he’s digging in to find all the players. He vows to keep his town safe.

When Zach meets Tess, he’s intrigued, yet wary. She’s with his main suspect and he can’t decide if she’s another victim or part of the scheme. He hopes she’s as innocent as she seems, but it could be part of her act.

As he pulls back the layers of the case, he starts falling for Tess. The more he hears of her story, certain details don’t make sense. Is she just a terrible liar or is something else going on? Something even she doesn’t know about?
