A CAPTIVATING GAME OF LOVE AND DANGER. On New Year's Eve 1905, Genevieve Morgan attends a ball at the elaborate Palace Hotel in San Francisco hosted by Seth Comstock, the newest, most eligible bachelor in town. Desperate to escape the infamous bordello she inherited, Genevieve hopes to charm and marry Seth. Easier said than done for a nobody fish in a little pond who can't waltz. Enter Luke Harper, a riverboat gambler staying in the area while he unloads a horse ranch he won in a high stakes poker game. With one glance at the beautiful siren with lilac cat eyes, Luke's heart is determined to go on its own kind of hunt. Too bad his mind disagrees and wants to continue his travels. But as the music stops and Genevieve and Luke find themselves in each other's arms, their hearts stop and their plans change. Will Genevieve's gut warn her away? Will Luke abandon his plans to vanish into the wild? Or will they both strike a deal that's anything but tame?
