About The Book

When I was six months old, I dropped from the sky -- the lone survivor of a deadly Japanese plane crash. The newspapers named me Heaven. I was adopted by a wealthy family in Tokyo, pampered, and protected. For nineteen years, I thought I was lucky.
I'm learning how wrong I was.
I'VE LOST EVERYTHING.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS FOR ME,
BUT THE PERSON I LOVE WON'T BE IN IT.
IT'S TIME TO START OVER.
LAS VEGAS IS A TOWN FOR GAMBLERS AND COWBOYS.
ONE GAMBLER HAS FOUND ME -- -AND HE WANTS TO RISK IT ALL.
BUT MY HEART ISN'T IN THE GAME.
I ONLY HAVE ONE GOAL NOW:
TO STAY ALIVE.
I AM SAMURAI GIRL.
