It's taken Desmond Reed four years to finally see what's been right in front of him all this time: his best friend, Megan Loxley. But he's waited too long. Megan's fallen for his poker buddy, Alex Truman.
Des wants to grab hold of Megan and haul her as far away from Alex as he can get her. Only Alex isn't letting Megan go for all the chips on the table. Des can play his hand and reveal his true feelings, but the wager is huge. He stands to lose his best friend…or win the biggest jackpot of his life.
Then Megan raises the stakes. She loves Alex, but she loves Des too. Rather than give one of them up, she's betting on both men. Now Des has a choice: stick around and play by Megan's rules, or forfeit his hand—the woman he loves—to another man.
