About this audiobook

In the second novel in Joanna Shupe’s the Uptown Girl series, a ruthless casino owner bent on revenge finds his plans upended by a beautiful woman who proves to be more determined than he is--and too irresistible to deny.

Powerful casino owner.
Ruthless mastermind.
Destroyer of men.

He lives in the shadows . . .

As the owner of the city’s most exclusive casino, Clayton Madden holds the fortunes of prominent families in the palms of his hands every night. There is one particular family he burns to ruin, however, one that has escaped his grasp . . . until now.

She is society’s darling . . .

Florence Greene is no one’s fool. She knows Clayton Madden is using her to ruin her prestigious family . . . and she’s using him right back. She plans to learn all she can from the mysterious casino owner—then open a casino of her own just for women.

With revenge on his mind, Clay agrees to mentor Florence. However, she soon proves more adept—and more alluring—than Clay bargained for. When his plans are threatened, Clay must decide if he is willing to gamble his empire on love.

    I really liked it, up until the end where Clay is painted as the bad guy and Florence’s entitled rich girl woe is me approach becomes the theme that wins.

    Anoher exciting and romantic novel set at the end of the 19th century in New York, including a headstrong, rich heroine with modern ideas of womanwood with a self made man with a very large chip on his shoulder. He wants vengeance and she wants independence. They could help each other, but the problem is he wants vengeance on her family. It's a guaranteed hea, but the suspense and excitement for the reader lies in the twists and turns and how it all eventually works out! Well done again! A very enjoyable historical romance.

    I think I've read a few too many books in a row that are all about women who don't want to marry but find a particular guy irrestable. This has a woman who wants to open a casino (when it's illegal) for women so she goes about finding out how to do it the most logical way. She approaches the most successful owner of a casino who hates her father. When they meet sparks fly and they both begin to wonder if they might have something else they could do with their lives.There are complications and arguments and many issues they have to get over before they get their resolution but it was an interesting read overall. There is some pretty graphic sex and sexual moments that they share.

    Review originally published at Romancing Romances.I received an eARC at no cost from the publisher, and I am leaving a voluntary and honest review. Thank you.3.75*Just under a 4 out of 5 rating, this book tells the story of Felicity Green, who wants to own a women’s casino during the Gilded Age. Smart woman that she is, she decided to ask Clayton, who already owns a casino, to teach her.Clay has a revenge story against her father, and that gets in the way of the happy ending, but in the end he does the right thing – of course.Although I enjoyed this book, it wasn’t a favourite. Clay’s revenge sometimes pushed things in a way that was too much, and Felicity was a bit annoying at parts, as she behaved in ways that didn’t feel very realistic.I did love the voyeurism scene, it was super sexy! The good times delivered, as usual.The end felt just right for everyone, and it’s very refreshing to have different goals and results than what we are used to – mind, it’s still a HEA, just not a “married with kids” HEA, which would not have suited our main couple.Definitely a big part in this series, Felicity and Clay’s story is one of social class differences, revenge, following your goals, and knowing when to compromise without losing focus.

    Really enjoyed Florence’s story and her awesome ambitious plans. I also appreciated the unconventional happy ever after; it was definitely one I haven’t seen before in a historical, and I’d love to see more.
