In last year’s finale, Desna (Nash) dodged an ill-fated marriage to sinister Dr. Ruval (Jimmy Jean-Louis), took out her Russian crime boss, Zlata (Franka Potente), and inherited a casino. The celebrations ended with a cliffhanger when Virginia (Karrueche Tran) took a bullet for Desna as they were about to survey their new business venture.

In season three, the ladies quickly learn that the stakes couldn’t be higher in the casino world. Desna will take a gamble as she enters into business with a sinister couple.

Nash and Preston will each direct an episode.

The cast also includes Jenn Lyon, Jack Kesy, Kevin Ranking and Jason Antoon.
