<\/a>Although I\u2019ve already read the pre-edit\u00aded ver\u00adsion since I\u2019m lucky enough to be one of Gem\u2019s beta-read\u00aders, I\u2019ve got the fin\u00adished ver\u00adsion of this spicy west\u00adern on my desk\u00adtop, taunt\u00ading me, telling me I don\u2019t real\u00adly have to write any\u00adthing. I MUST<\/span> read Five Card Stud by Gem Sivad.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve not had the plea\u00adsure of sam\u00adpling Gem\u2019s work, I sug\u00adgest you drop what\u00adev\u00ader you\u2019re doing and head over to her web\u00adsite to read some excerpts. Go ahead. I\u2019ll wait.<\/p>\n

Gem Sivad\u2019s Website<\/a><\/p>\n

See? I was\u00adn\u2019t kid\u00adding. Gem\u2019s voice is so com\u00adplete\u00adly per\u00adfect, I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever read an author who sounds like she just stepped out of the nine\u00adteenth cen\u00adtu\u00adry the way she does.\u00c2 <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the blurb for Five Card Stud:<\/p>\n

When boun\u00adty hunter Sam McCal\u00adlis\u00adter sees Eden Pace play\u00ading pok\u00ader for the first time, he los\u00ades all inter\u00adest in the cards; instead, the thought of play\u00ading stud with the lady gam\u00adbler stirs his cock to life. Eden\u2019s the pret\u00adti\u00adest woman and the best card sharp Sam\u2019s ever met. Good thing he has a few cards up his sleeve.\u00c2 <\/span><\/p>\n

Eden\u2019s doing her own out\u00adlaw hunt\u00ading. She\u2019s on the trail of her husband\u2019s killer and Sam\u2019s in her way. To get free of this hard\u00adhead\u00aded, soft\u00adheart\u00aded, gor\u00adgeous man, Eden tries strip pok\u00ader and naked truth-or-dare, but when Sam ups the stakes, car\u00adnal sub\u00admis\u00adsion and desire are unleashed.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Sam dis\u00adcov\u00aders Eden\u2019s want\u00aded for mur\u00adder, he fig\u00adures his bed is the safest place for her. But tak\u00ading Eden pris\u00adon\u00ader isn\u2019t as easy as Sam expects. He\u2019s in a high-stakes pok\u00ader game with lust on the table and his heart on the line, because one taste of Eden just isn\u2019t enough.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

See how Eden looks so prop\u00ader on that cov\u00ader? Look close\u00adly at her eyes. There\u2019s a pas\u00adsion\u00adate woman behind that fan, and she sure does\u00adn\u2019t hide behind any sense of Vic\u00adto\u00adri\u00adan propriety.\u00c2  Check out the trail\u00ader, made by yours truly:<\/p>\n
