Book Description
All bets are on love this Christmas...
Sabina Bradford grew up touring the Continent with her parents, living a hundred lives as a thief, a fortune teller, and an oracle. Now grown and a nurse at London Hospital in Whitechapel, she's put away her make-believe for a life of caring for the sick--until a misunderstanding ends with her fired and left to the East End streets just weeks before Christmas.
On the verge of being taken away by the police, Sabina is saved in the nick of time by a mysterious and powerful stranger. He asks her to bet it all on a marriage of convenience.
When Julian Ainsworth discovers the beautiful nurse being fired from London Hospital in the alley adjacent to his casino, he takes action. Hedging his bet that she's the solution to his new and unwanted ward, he asks her to be his wife. Content with being married to the management of his casino, he leaves his bride to run his house and care for the child. But what he doesn't see coming is falling in love with Sabina just in time for Christmas.
Sabina has one last role to play, but as she falls for Julian, their marriage feels less and less like one of convenience. Julian has a decision to make: to go all in on a chance at love or lose it all...
