RED by Kay Duncan: A High-Stakes Thriller of Power, Passion, and Revenge In the neon-lit underworld of Las Vegas, only the ruthless survive. Red Moretti is a force to be reckoned with—a glamorous, razor-sharp high-stakes gambler with a taste for vengeance and a Beretta strapped to her thigh. When she's not cleaning out casinos with her lethal charm and sleight of hand, she's dismantling the men foolish enough to underestimate her. But after a brutal betrayal leaves her family in ruins, Red's quest for justice drags her into a deadly game with the Triads, where the stakes are no longer just money—they're blood.Enter Dante Salvatore, a ruthless empire-builder with a vendetta of his own. Charismatic, dangerous, and devastatingly sensual, he's the kind of man who owns every room he walks into—and every woman's second glance. When their paths collide, the attraction between them is as explosive as it is perilous. Trust is a liability. Desire is a distraction. And in a world where loyalty is bought and sold, the only rule is survival. But when Red uncovers a decades-old conspiracy—one that shatters everything she thought she knew about her past—she's forced to confront a terrifying truth: the only thing more dangerous than her enemies... is her own blood.
