A proper lady finds herself under the care of a sexy scoundrel in this Regency romance by the USA Today bestselling author of To Bedevil a Duke.
Olivia Cole is devastated to learn that her ne'er-do-well brother has promised her to the operator of a London gaming hall as payment of his debts. Olivia accepts her fate—even if it means that her reputation will suffer from living among rogues and gamblers. But when she meets the sexy and mysterious Griffin Wright-Jones, Viscount Breckenridge, Olivia has more than just her good name to worry about—for he rouses in her wanton thoughts she's never dared entertain—until now.
Griffin wears the scars of his life on his striking face. Although he wants Olivia like no other woman before, he could never force her to share his bed. But with each passing night, Griffin and Olivia's resolve weakens until finally they take their greatest gamble on one night of reckless pleasure

      Shocked to learn that her heedless brother has "given" her to Griffin Wright-Jones, Viscount Breckenridge, as a guarantee that he will pay his gambling debt, beautiful Olivia Cole stoically moves to Griffin's gaming establishment, intending to honor her brother's vow.

      She is surprised, however, at the care he takes to keep her reputation safe. However, Olivia defies Griffin by dealing at the faro table. She convinces him to let her continue for a percentage and works her way into his heart.

      A pair of unlikely but well-matched protagonists and assorted secondary characters add to the e legant charm of this sultry, nicely paced romance that is graced with an unusual setting, a bit of mystery, and a twist on a classic premise. Goodman ("If His Kiss Is Wicked") is noted for her well-delineated characters, scintillating sensuality, and compelling plots.
