She needs a protector… Once seduced by whispered
promises of a faithless lover, Phoebe Scott
is determined to make a name on the Covent Garden stage, but
after three years of bit parts, she
realizes she'll never achieve her goals on her own merits.
Acknowledging her success is dependent
on a powerful patron, Phoebe is now resolved to find a
protector to secure her future. With this
goal in mind, she seeks out the best prospects at London's
most notorious brothel.
He's avowed to celibacy… Sir Edward "Ned" Chambers
has been lost and lonely since his wife’s
death in childbirth. Burdened with blame, he has sworn to a
life of celibacy, but after three years,
he is inwardly edgy, irritable, and increasingly
discontent. Perceiving the cause behind Ned’s
unhappiness, as well as the obvious cure, his best friend
and rake of the first order, "The Devil"
DeVere, is hellbent to return Ned to the land of the
living. DeVere's machinations result in an
outrageous wager that could lead Ned to a new love… or land
them all in the Tower!
All bets are off in in this racy Georgian romp!
