Romance is a gamble with hearts as the stakes.

At least that's true when Mason Dickenson gets involved.

Ruth and Richard have lived across the street from each other for ten long, dateless years. He can't understand why she won't let him ask her out. She's still waiting for the day when he finally can.

It's a misunderstanding of epic proportions, and yet, neither is willing to risk the relationship they do have in a bid for something more. Yes, they should just "talk about it." One conversation would probably solve everything.

So, with a pack of cards and a few tricks up his sleeve, Mason determines to get them out of the "friend rut" and into romance.

Join Ruth, Richard, and Mason in the story of a series of poker games with dates and talks about Jesus to cement relationships. Oh, and a mysterious "gifter" who uses the old "poison pen letters" idea until everyone is dreading Christmas in Fairbury this year.

Enjoy this slow-burn romance without waiting an entire decade for a happily-ever-after. Fairbury will be jealous.
