Don't Bet On It

By Avery Kane

Tallulah Hayes has a bad temper but a good work ethic.
Ronan Hawthorne has a world-class pedigree but wants a different life.
They hate each other. They have since high school, when Ronan ghosted Tallulah on prom night. They're not going to be friends. Unfortunately, they are going to be co-workers.
Ronan has been working under the radar at his family's rival casino for a year. He doesn't want to run anything. He just wants to save up enough money to open his own art gallery ... one day.
Tallulah has no choice but to take a position in the high rollers' pit at Stone Casino after losing her most recent job. Her friend Olivia procures the placement thanks to her new husband, and Tallulah is grateful ... if a little worried. She doesn't do well under pressure.
When Ronan and Tallulah come face to face after years apart, sparks fly. Not necessarily good ones, however. They instantly start fighting, both of them happy to remain enemies, until they stumble upon something to worry about together.
Stone Casino is under siege from a secret enemy. Ronan and Tallulah are going to have to join together to keep the people they care for safe ... whether they like it or not. Along the way, they just might find out they have more in common than they ever realized.
What will that mean for their futures?
