Anyone would fall in love with this guy, anyone, man, woman, or dog, poker was so damn attractive and warm, it made Owen want to walk away and forget about Jenna completely. “The poker game is everything, Mooncalf. It doesn’t matter what things are. You shape them into the way you want them. That’s how you gain mastery.”
I will beat you, Owen made the oath then and there. He glanced briefly up at the online blackjack unfettered sun and prayed that if nothing else went his way in this life, poker would beat down this Jimmy. Then, Owen reached out and gave Jimmy’s shoulder a friendly squeeze. “Just not big poker games I guess.”
Whosoever has loved the way I love Jenna Montgomery, poker whispered to the stars through his bedroom window, has known sacrifice and torture and days and poker of endless wanting, thirst without satisfaction, hunger without morsel. Whosoever has wept within themselves for what they could not play casino, could not touch, has felt what I feel.
