Marina boards thinking she's going to play and discovers that, in fact, it's the board. Amid shootouts in luxurious saloons, political conspiracies and treacherous alliances, Marina begins to build something greater than any bounty: an empire. From cards to bullets.

Gabriel has secrets. He moved to get away from his parents-or something like that. Leaving behind his wealthy family in San Francisco, he now lives in a studio apartment outside of Chicago. Navigating his twenties and the unexpected reality of being an adult leaves him more introverted than ever, only meeting one person who understands him-his best friend Diego. Two years into his new life and things could be a lot better. Fresh out of a short but bittersweet relationship, and desperately needing work, he accepts a job as a dish washer at a local diner. This is where Gabriel meets Sadie. This is just the beginning.
