Devil-may-care Patti Lyon is a gambler at heart, cheerfully making ends meet by winning outlandish sweepstakes and wacky TV game shows. Stunning but straitlaced civic leader Alex Greene represents everything she rebels against--and he staunchly opposes her on legalizing local gambling. — Their head-on collision provokes explosive passion. But as Patti boldly teases forth Alex's more adventurous spirit, he roguishly tries to seduce her into respectability. Though laughingly breathless from their sensual parrying, Patti's afraid their wildly divergent values will turn their newfound love into a risky game of chance.
