The Baccarat Widow by A.J. Thorne

Francesca Leone thought she inherited a luxurious Monaco baccarat salon after her husband’s sudden death. Instead, she inherited a multi-million-dollar money-laundering empire, a lethal debt to a ruthless syndicate, and Lucien—the deadly, silent game protector who has spent five years obsessively watching her from the shadows. To survive, Francesca must master the rigged game her husband built and outplay a dangerous enemy who controls the board. But the highest stakes aren't on the baccarat table; they are in the intoxicating, dangerous pull of the man standing between her and the door. In a world of coded losses and lethal secrets, Francesca is about to prove that the house always wins—especially when she is the one dealing the cards.
