From New York Times bestselling author Madeline Hunter comes
this seductive tale of a headstrong young lady, a scandalous
manuscript, and the iron-willed duke determined to save her
from her ruin. For fans of Mary Balogh, Eloisa James, and
Julia Quinn.
When Lady Lydia Alfreton is blackmailed over the shocking
contents of a manuscript she once wrote, she must go to the
most desperate of measures to raise the money to buy back
the ill-considered prose: agreeing to an old wager posed by
the arrogant, dangerous Duke of Penthurst. At least
Penthurst is a man she wouldn’t mind fleecing—and she’s
confident she’ll win.
Penthurst long ago concluded Lydia was a woman in search of
ruinous adventure, but even he is surprised when she arrives
at his house ready to bet her innocence against his ten
thousand pounds—a wager he only proposed to warn her off
gambling.
When she loses to a simple draw of the cards, Lydia is
shocked. Now, her problems are twofold: a blackmailer
determined to see her pay and a duke determined to tame her
rebellious ways. One misstep and Lydia could find herself
ruined—or bound to the seductive man who would make her his
duchess.
