The sizzling-hot Caldwell Brothers series—perfect for readers of J. S. Scott and Emma Chase—hits the Vegas strip as a bad-boy gambler from Detroit Rock City shows a single mom what it means to play for keeps.
For Morrison Caldwell, life is a game of chance. A high roller with a legendary poker face, he’s the wild card of the family, always chasing the next thrill and never staying put for long. The one place that always lures him back is Las Vegas, with its hot tables and even hotter women. He’s perfectly content to live his life as a series of one-night stands. But when a parking lot confrontation with a cocktail waitress takes a naughty turn, she leaves Morrison aching for another round.
After a long losing streak in Sin City, Hailey Poe is ready to get lucky. A steamy tryst with a cocky, mysterious stranger is the kind of no-strings encounter she’s been craving . . . until Morrison Caldwell asks for more than she’s willing to offer. But when Hailey’s controlling, soon-to-be ex-husband tries to take her daughter away, she can’t afford to turn down a helping hand. In this winner-takes-all game, Morrison is gambling with Hailey’s life—and her heart.

Review:
After meeting all of the Caldwell Brothers in Hendrix's book and knowing their past, I was excited to read Morrison's book. It pulled me right back into the world of the Caldwell brothers and I found myself falling in love with them all over again.
Morrison is the middle brother, and like Hendrix he has hiw own crosses to bear about how they grew up. He knows that he has parts of his father in him, but he got most of his self fromm his mother. He's a tough guy, smart, and able to take care of himself, but he's also sort of lost.
Hailey's never had it easy. Born into a life not of her choosing, she's strung along and stuck in a world she doesn't want to be in. She's been hurt and used so much in her past that its hard to trust anyone. But there's one thing Hailey's willing to risk it for, her daughter. She wants better for herself, she wants better for her child, and she just might have to put herself out there and risk it all for a chance at better.
Morrison was a wonderful story, it showed the true nature of the Caldwell brothers, the legacy their mother wanted them to have and leave behind. It was full of action and moments that kept you on edge, sweet moments, and hard, painful truths. Morrison and Hailey just work together, there is jsut that feeling of rightness about them and I loved how they seemed to fit.
This book brought out a lot of things in me, I was angry at the things Hailey was forced to endure, upset at the life that tore her down, but also I loved that though her life sucked, she never truly gave up. She had an inner strength and a fierce mother's love, she wanted to protect her child at any and all costs and knew it would be worth it. She never allowed herself to be broken, instead fought in ways she could to find a better hold on life.
This book is the story of two people who've suffered a lot, who thought they were content with the way life was going for them, but found, once they met, that they couldn't turn away. It's a story of second chances and finding love when you least expect it.
I have loved each of the Caldwell brothers for different reasons and I look forward to Jagger's story.
