Samantha Coleman thought she understood sacrifice.
Ten years of marriage taught her how to endure, how to stay, how to pour herself into a life built around cleaning, cashiering, and catering poker nights for her husband, while slowly disappearing in the process.
She never expected everything to unravel over a poker game.
One reckless night exposes truths that can no longer be ignored, betrayals buried too deep, loyalties misplaced, and a marriage balanced on the edge of collapse. And standing at the center of that unraveling is Marcellus Howard, a man with a reputation that precedes him and a presence Samantha never planned for.
Caught between the urge to leave and the fear of stepping into the unknown, Samantha is forced to confront who she's become and who she might still be.
As the past unravels and new beginnings take shape, Samantha learns that sometimes losing everything is the only way to find yourself again, and that the bravest thing you can do after the cards fall is go ALL IN on yourself.
