It’s the most irresistible gamble of all…
Bianca Wagner knows that love’s just a fleeting fantasy on Vegas’s dazzling and seductive strip. But hot new casino owner Tanner Long is quickly changing the jaded reporter’s mind. Yet the high-flying bachelor isn’t a man who plays for keeps…until one passionate rendezvous in London leaves Bianca with an unexpected gift.
Getting Bianca to say “I do” has become Tanner’s life mission…especially now that he’s going to be a father. But a misunderstanding has the potential to derail their relationship forever. What will it take for Tanner to convince Bianca that he’s a changed man? That he’s ready to wager everything for the chance to be a real family with the woman he loves….
Flagging down a cab, Tanner opened the door for
Bianca. He wanted to kiss her badly.
Something told him she wanted the same. Or was that merely his fantasy?
Going with his instincts, Tanner lifted her chin and gazed into Bianca’s eyes for a long moment, before tilting his head and planting a kiss on her lips. They were, as expected, soft and perfect when meshing with his. He kept the kiss going for several seconds and then pulled back, not wanting to overdo it.
“That was nice,” Bianca uttered.
“Yeah, for me, too,” he assured her.
“Good night, Tanner.”
“Good night.”
He smiled and watched her slide into the backseat before he closed the door.
As the cab drove off, Tanner watched for a moment, wishing he’d gone with her. She’d left quite an impression on him—one that he did not take lightly.
Bianca Wagner may be just the lady I’ve been looking for all my adult life, he thought. But the trick was getting her to feel the same way about him. He would work on that and not allow this gorgeous woman to slip through his fingers.

Dear Reader,
I am delighted to present to you my latest Harlequin Kimani Romance novel, Bet on Love, as part of the Kimani Hotties: Promise Me Forever series.
Reporter Bianca Wagner is not much of a gambler, but when she makes a connection with handsome Las Vegas Strip casino owner Tanner Long, all bets are off! Rolling the dice becomes even more challenging when Bianca becomes pregnant and wants the winning hand before she gives in to all-consuming love.
The idea for this story came from a desire to build a romance amid the glamour, glitz and gambling in one of the world’s most dynamic cities.
Here’s a secret about the heroine, Bianca: she is the sister of Madison Wagner, the heroine of my previous Harlequin Kimani romance, Say It with Roses, in which Bianca made an appearance.
You are sure to find this charming love story an enjoyable read from start to finish!
I also invite you to read my recent Hawaii-themed Harlequin Kimani romances, Aloha Fantasy, Private Luau and Pleasure in Hawaii.
Kind regards,
Devon Vaughn Archer
I would like to thank my wife, H. Loraine, for her diligent devotion to me and my writings. I daresay I would never be where I am today as a successful author without your encouragement and support.
I also extend appreciation to all the Harlequin editors and staff that I have worked with over the years for their professionalism and friendship.
To “Beautiful Mermaid,” the love of my life who was a sure bet as someone I wanted as my bride and best friend. Thank you for being there for what seems like forever. Our best years are still ahead of us.
And to my mother, Marjah A. Flowers, sister, Jacquelyn V. White, nieces, and other ladies who believe in the power of love and romance in the world of fiction and real life.
