Greed equals ruin, but Noires want it all. A mask to conceal. A treasure to plunder. Harrowing heists and a shattering head. Conquest to conquest, controlling the game. Cash...No name, no face —just amber eyes and a thief who stole my attention. She thinks she got the last word. But as the owner of La Lune Noire, a resort for the corrupt, my resources are endless, and I never lose. When I track down the sly and stunning Sylvie Palmer, I’m mesmerized. Sparks fly. She feigns disinterest. But I know better. I chase her across the US with one vision in mind: her dress on my floor.

La Lune Noire has a pulse. It rules apart from its owners. Backroom deals and electro swing. Extravagant parties and bootlegger tunnels. The walls have secrets. The doors have codes. Ashes and lies. White oak and screams. Champagne and delusions. Hope is the gateway to hell.
