As secrets unfold, the newlyweds share days of doubts and nights of the wickedest pleasures. Yet once Vice discovers her husband’s past, will she stay to fight for her marriage or cut her losses and run? 

Ratings and reviews

I loved the Game Maker series; however, the pasts of the Sevastyan's have already been revealed in books 1 and 2 so there wasn't much more to discover about Dmitri, making it somewhat repetitive. Nonetheless, collectively, this is a great series.

The third book in the series is the best one by far!!! Dmitri and Vika are in the ultimate whirlwind romance and quickie marriage...that is a house of cards which could go either way! An intense read, heartbreaking at times, ends with the best of all possible reasons! Once you start this one, you'll devour it in one sitting!!! (I know, I did!!!) Excellent book, a must on on your TBR list!!

At first I didnt think it good but reading on my what a sexy get the heart pumping book wanted more hope there will be. Still didnt beat out maxim no one could. Love these brothers.
