The House Always Wins (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798993850474)

Two years after the sudden loss of her fiancé, traveling nurse Brooke Cassidy arrives in Deadwood, South Dakota, planning to keep her head down, do her job, and leave with her heart intact. But Deadwood has other plans, and one of them comes with thick arms, broad shoulders, and a sultry smile that promises trouble.

Dane Walker is powerful, polished, and impossible to ignore. When Brooke saves a patron at his casino restaurant, their connection sparks instantly. It's hot, unfiltered, and impossible to dismiss. What begins as charged moments quickly turns into physical chemistry that leaves Brooke breathless and questioning everything she thought she wanted.

But desire has consequences. When a physician with his own agenda takes issue with Brooke's growing connection to Dane, jealousy festers, tensions rise, and secrets begin to unravel, forcing Brooke to decide who she can trust and how much of herself she's willing to risk again.

In a town built on chance, passion, and power, one truth becomes clear: in Deadwood, the house always wins.
