SHE BET HER INNOCENCE
Jade-eyed Jessica was too shocked to protest when the riverboat cardsharp offered her as the stakes in a poker game. But after she met the smoldering glance of his opponent Luke Garrett, the fiery beauty hoped that the dark-haired stranger held the winning hand. His rich, husky voice robbed her of reason, his strong muscled frame stole her breath away. She had never been with a man before, but sensed that only in Luke's arms could she ever find release from the rapturous torment that surged through her veins.

He followed the blush that stained her satiny cheeks, her smooth white neck and the tantalizing fullness of her breasts.

Even if it meant risking his whole fortune, Luke had to possess the enticing lady, the priceless prize of Passion's Gamble
