A woman on the go as a city engineer, Denise Dixon has the ideal life on the outside. Well off family, parents who spoil her with gifts and even a home. What people don’t see is the fragile bond that keeps her family together or the addiction she continues to struggle with. Jaden Bond runs a multimillion-dollar business and was hired by Denise’s parents to renovate her new home. Denise is the kind of woman Jaden would normally steer clear of but he finds her infectious personality hard to resist. With family secrets of his own, Jaden brings with him his own set of problems and he and Denise have a long way to go before they can finally come together with love.  

I’m not sure if the addiction issue made this story a tad bit difficult for me or if it was the feeling that Gamble on Love left me with more questions than answers. This story touched on two types of addictions, alcoholism and gambling but also showcased two well off families so heavily dysfunctional watching them interact was rather painful at times. The heroine was a gambler who didn’t seem to be able to deal with her issues in an honest way. Be if from a lack of empathy but no matter how far I went into the story I couldn’t connect with Denise. She seemed spoiled, selfish and rather cold at times unless she was being intimate with Jaden. Though I was able to feel some sympathy for Jaden and his family issues his personality left a little to be desired.
