Winning was all he ever cared about-until now.

AceSidney drives me crazy.

As a professional poker player, I never want to lose, but when that woman beats me, it makes me want to punch something. She haunts my dreams. The kind of scorching hot dreams that end with me waking up in a sweat wishing she was right next to me.

My friends are joining me in the Bahamas for a poker tournament I'm gonna rule. I know she'll be there, grinning as she flashes her cards, licking those red lips just to mess with my head.

But this time I refuse to let her win.

I've never been a member of Ace's fan club.

The guy's an annoying peacock, strutting around like he's God's gift to the world. But when it's clear a dirty player is trying to cheat us both out of the tournament, I have no choice but to enlist his help.

After a few drinks we agree to call a truce and join forces - for a limited time.

With all those distractions, we're not prepared for the storm bearing down on our resort, or the passion rising between us...
