That is until he meets the woman of his dreams and ultimately chases her out of his life -the beautiful Michelle Wurley. For the first time Darius must confront and overcome his demons if he is to have any chance to win back the affection of Ms. Wurley, who is as equally sharp in wit as she is beautiful.

About the author
Glenn Gamble
7 books21 followersFormer professional poker player Glenn Gamble is an author from Chicago, IL who doesn't have one of those inspiring stories where he goes to the state penitentiary to discover his gift for writing amazing stories. Instead, he worked on his craft during long romantic dates at Starbucks and Panera Bread with his laptop and a story. His inspiration came from friends who encouraged him to pursue his dreams to become a writer. Without a prison sentence, Gamble has managed to pen A Thousand Chances, Bon Appetit and Escape; and is currently writing future installments of both the Jim Money and Darius Blaylock Poker Series.
In his spare time, Gamble likes to watch Chicago Bulls games, drop twitter bombs from the sky, slam facebook with status updates, and bet on low-stakes rat and roach races taking place in various public housing project apartments across the United States.
