'And now, get out of my life.' Those hard, implacable words from Ric Burnett had meant the end of everything for Glenna. She was sure her love for Ric was more than just a holiday romance - why, when he was badly injured in an accident it had made no difference to her feelings for him.
Yet he had made it clear that he had no use for either her love or her sympathy - and had married his nurse instead. All that was eight years ago, but now, in New Zealand, they had met again. But Ric was, after all, a married man, and Glenna had got over him anyway. Or had she?

COULD SHE GAMBLE ON LOVE?
Kit Delacorte was merely polite to Wendi Miller, an aspiring young singer eager to further her career at the Lake Tahoe resorts. Then Wendi took advantage of Kit's father, the playboy ruler of a casino, and to Kit's chagrin, actually moved into their home.
Kit, annoyed with her father and seeking revenge, moved in with Jason Rourke, the current professional hotshot on the gambling scene. Jason was everything Kit had ever dreamed of in a man--except that, like her father, he was a gambler.
Confused by their strong passion, can Kit accept Jason's profession, or will she have to lose his love?
