Don’t play games you can’t afford to lose…
Amy Whey loves her ordinary life with a devoted professor husband, a spirited fifteen-year-old stepdaughter, her adorable infant son, and a job she loves teaching Scuba diving. But all she holds dear will unravel when the mysterious Angelica Roux drops into her book club.
​
Sultry and magnetic, Roux keeps the wine flowing and lures the group into what seems like a naughty, harmless game of spilling secrets. But Amy realizes something wicked has come her way—a she-devil in a pricey red sports car who seems to know the terrible truth about who she is and what she once did.
​
If Amy doesn’t give Roux what she wants, what she deserves, Roux will make Amy pay for her sins. To protect her family and the life she’s built, Amy must beat the devil at her own clever game, matching wits with Roux in an escalating war of hidden pasts and unearthed secrets. Amy knows the consequences if she can’t beat Roux. What terrifies her is everything she could lose if she wins.
