Shupe masterfully captures the culture of New York City in the 1890s. As Madden struggles to remain emotionally detached from the tenacious beauty, formidable heroine Florence attempts to balance her own attraction to Madden with her desire to be independent. Clayton, a prominent member of New York City’s underworld, agrees to educate Florence on the nuances of casino operations, secretly hoping to use her in his ongoing quest for revenge against her father, Duncan Greene, whom he blames for the destruction of his family. She turns to rugged, self-made Clayton Madden for assistance. Highborn, free-thinking Florence Greene dreams of opening a casino for women. A powerful casino owner gambles with his emotions when he gets involved with the feisty daughter of his nemesis in the steamy second romance in Shupe’s Uptown Girls series (after The Rogue of Fifth Avenue).
