Author: C.L. Foster

C.L. Foster writes paranormal romance that mixes emotional temptation with high-stakes fantasy situations. Bluffing the Devil opens the Nuhra Saga and centers on Alexia Riley, a professional poker player trying to rebuild her life after a devastating loss. Goodreads identifies the novel as the first Nuhra installment and describes the dream visitor, rival at the card tables, and dangerous bargain that place Alexia's ambitions under pressure. A separate Romance.io listing verifies the byline, title, and series position. Poker gives the story more than decorative atmosphere: ideas of bluffing, risk, sacrifice, and reading an opponent shape both its supernatural conflict and its relationship drama. The novel's central question is what Alexia is willing to stake for victory, love, or peace of mind when every apparent choice carries another cost. In Bluffing the Devil, C.L. Foster brings competitive strategy into a paranormal framework, using the language of wagers and deception to link an outward tournament with a far more personal contest.
