After years of service for Eris, Catherine Sharp finally gets the opportunity to get her soul back by attending a prestigious party with the handsome satyr, Marius.  What Catherine finds is that her soul has become a pawn in a weekly card game of the Greek gods and it is up to her to get all the bargaining chips back from the players to win back her soul.  Each of them have their own agenda for trying to win Catherine’s soul and hopefully she can get the chips back before everyone tries to kill each other.I wasn’t sure what to make of this book when I first started reading it but I am happy to say that I really enjoyed it by the end. I liked Catherine from the beginning and she just seemed to have the bad luck of losing her soul to the Greek goddess, Eris.  She had a talent with fixing computers and was able to fix any hard drive or network in a matter of minutes when the problem had her co-workers stumped for hours. I knew there had to be something special about her because the gods were literally fighting over her and it was amazing when she finally figured out what that gift was.Marius was an interesting character even though he was a jerk most of the time.  He had quite a few secrets that he was keeping from Cat and through most of the book, you kept wondering what his real intentions were.  I loved the scenes that he had with Cat because they were the exact polar opposites and some of the things that Cat did to him was absolutely hilarious.Wild Card was a fun action-packed thrill ride set amidst the decadent Las Vegas nightlife.  I loved how Jamie mixed Greek Mythology throughout this book which added to its atmosphere and made it more enjoyable for me.  I am looking forward to reading more from Ms. Wyman in the future.Received a complimentary copy in exchange for a honest review.
