That a mere woman would dare to turn down his offer to buy The Keys is unthinkable, and Armand vows to force Lucky's hand whatever it takes. And so the battle for power begins . . .

An affair they have to keep on the down-low lest Lucky finds out.The word is that "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" and what happens in Goddess of Vengeance will blow your mind!
