When it comes to true love, never say never...

Trust doesn't come easy for NBA superstar Hunter Graham, especially after his fianc e married his stepbrother. Vowing to be single for the rest of his life, women and gambling have become his favorite pastimes. But when Hunter learns of his stepbrother's death, he's forced to deal with the woman who crushed his soul. He wants nothing to do with her, but his heart won't cooperate.

Viviana Connelly thought being blackmailed into marriage was the worst thing she could ever experience. Wrong. Coming face-to-face with the only man she's ever loved after betraying him is like a punishment worse than death. Hunter hates her. She might've made peace without him in her life, but when they are unexpectedly thrown together, their passion reignites, and the flame between them burns hotter than ever.

Hunter refuses to let vicious accusations from the media or the NBA's claim of him having a gambling problem keep him from a second chance with the woman he loves. However, his gambling hobby might be the death of him...and Viviana, too.

Will they ever get their happy ending-or will the evil around them suffocate their love?
