His Wedding-Night Wager After ten years Shelby had returned to Vegas. But unlike the last time – when she was paid one million dollars to jilt casino owner Hayden MacKenzie at the altar – she was now being blackmailed by Hayden! Shelby would do anything to keep her secrets hidden…even give Hayden the wedding night he had lost. Her High-Stakes Affair Of all the men for director Raine Montgomery to be attracted to – Scott Rivers, really! Professional gambler Scott had bet fifty thousand dollars he’d bed her before they finished filming the Vegas poker showdown. No one – not even sexy Scott – was going to trump her! But the allure of the forbidden might be too irresistible… Their Million-Dollar Night Was one night worth one million dollars? Millionaire Max Williams would have said no – then he set his eyes on scandalous and sinful Roxy O’Malley. Roxy knew her secrets could cost Max his million-dollar deal, yet she couldn’t resist one evening in his arms!

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Romance, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Best when you want to settle into a longer reading experience.

Begin with its place in Romance, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What must each character learn before the relationship can become believable?
  2. How do work, family, friendship, or identity shape the central relationship?
  3. Does the emotional resolution feel earned by the choices that came before it?
