After eight years, Lucy Endcott has finally returned to
London to visit her dying father, a cold disciplinarian who
never approved of his eldest daughter. Lucy is a respected
widow, residing in the countryside away from the wicked
excess the city has to offer and her unscrupulous ex-lover,
the Marchioness Irena de Macey.
When Lucy finds out her youngest brother has gambled away
his inheritance at the Pythos Club, she enters the den of
iniquity in order to save him. Inside the club she meets the
owner’s alluring daughter, Tisha McGrath, who is more than
willing to help her brother…for a price.
Tisha longs to introduce Lucy to those secret passions she's
kept hidden away for so long. But dark secrets and
transgressions from the past connect their families in
shocking ways. Both women will work together to resolve this
scandal before it unravels further but Irena is waiting for
the right moment to strike, and Lucy may have no other
choice but to give into Irena’s demands in order to save the
ones she loves from utter ruin.
