Anario Anderson is a professional poker player who thrives on taking risks—except when it comes to love.
After a messy breakup with his daughter's mother two years ago, he's embraced the bachelor lifestyle and left serious relationships off the table. But everything changes when he meets China Armani, his daughter's intelligent, beautiful, and cautious teacher, at a school open house.
China is focused on rebuilding her life after ending a dead-end relationship. The last thing she wants is to gamble on love, especially with a smooth-talking playboy like Anario. But he's never been one to fold under pressure, and he's determined to win her over.
As Anario chips away at China's defenses, she begins to see there's more to him than his charm and high-stakes career. But with her past heartbreaks and his unpredictable lifestyle, can they both bet on love and come out on top?
