young ladies longing to gain a title . . . of games played
for high stakes, includingon occasiona lady's
virtue.
A marquess's sheltered only daughter, Lady Roberta St. Giles
falls in love with a man she glimpses across a crowded
ballroom: a duke, a game player of consummate skill, a
notorious rakehell who shows no interest in
marriageuntil he lays eyes on Roberta.
Yet the Earl of Gryffyn knows too well that the price
required to gain a coronet is often too high. Damon Reeve,

from chasing after the wrong destiny.
Can Damon entice her into a high-stakes game of his own,
even if his heart is likely to be lost in the venture?
