What to expect
'Shocking and thrilling at the same time. It will take your breath away!' Gillian Godden
She's the boss now...
Daddy’s girl Samantha Reynold hadn’t bargained on unexpectedly needing to step into her father’s shoes and take over the family casino business.
Pampered and spoiled, Sam knows nothing about the rules of this glamorous but deadly new world. She has a lot to learn and even more to prove. But she won’t let her family down, especially when it looks like they could lose everything to their biggest rivals – the Stoker family.
Eldest son Sebastian hasn’t got time to pander to pretty girl Samantha as she plays at being boss. Rumours are swirling around the streets of Birmingham that have the power to rip the Stoker family apart and destroy everything they’ve built.
And Seb will stop at nothing to ensure that in this takeover, only one will succeed.
A gripping gangland story perfect for fans of Kimberley Chambers, Heather Atkinson and Caz Finlay.
