Karen spent her life believing that outside the walls of Saint Mary’s orphanage, the world would finally be good to her. At eighteen, she got a job at a luxurious chain of hotels and casinos in Las Vegas—and met Peter Sterling, the perfect heir: rich, handsome, and kind. But on the night she thought he would propose, she discovered the cruel truth—Peter had only approached her for one reason: he needed her kidney to save the life of his actual girlfriend.

Because in Las Vegas, nothing is what it seems — and every deal has a price.
