A GIFT HE CAN'T RESIST
Billionaire Ashton Blackstone is at the peak of his power. He's in Vegas to close a billion-dollar deal-but his prospective partners have something else in mind: a "gift." A beautiful young virgin, offered as part of their twisted belief that sealing a deal with blood ensures fortune.
Ashton doesn't buy into superstition. He built his empire on grit, instinct, and ruthless determination-not rituals and luck. He's never believed in any of it.
Until he sees her.
Corazon "Heart" Alvez has never been dealt a winning hand-until now. Desperate to secure her future, she plays the only card she has: she sells her innocence to the highest bidder. But collecting the price means pleasing the man who bought her.

But as the lines blur, Heart realizes she may lose more than what she bargained for.
