In the game of love…
Georgiana
Lucas despises the arrogant and cruel Marquess of Westmorland even
before learning that he's won the deed to her friend Kitty's home in a
card game. Still, Georgiana assures Kitty the marquess wouldn't possibly
come all the way to Derbyshire to throw them out—until he shows up,
bloody and unconscious. Fearing that Kitty would rather see him die,
Georgiana blurts out that he's her fiancé. She'll nurse the hateful man
back to health and make him vow to leave and never return. The man who
wakes up, though, is nothing like the heartless rogue Georgiana thought
she knew…
You have to risk it all
He wakes up with
no memory of being assaulted—or of who he is. The bewitching beauty
tending him so devotedly calls him Rob and claims she's his fiancée even
as she avoids his touch. Though he can't remember how he won her hand,
he's now determined to win her heart. But as his memory returns and the
truth is revealed, Rob must decide if the game is up—or if he'll take a
chance on a love that defies all odds.
When you gamble at love...
When
Hugh Deveraux discovers his newly inherited earldom is bankrupt, he
sets about rebuilding the family fortune—in the gaming hells of London.
But the most daring wager he takes isn't at cards. A wealthy tradesman
makes a tantalizing offer: marry the man's spinster daughter, and Hugh's
debts will be paid and his fortune made. The only catch is that she
must never know about their agreement.
You risk losing your heart...
Heiress
Eliza Cross has given up hope of marriage until she meets the
impossibly handsome Earl of Hastings, her father's new business partner.
The earl is everything a gentleman should be, and is boldly attentive
to her. It doesn't take long for Eliza to lose her heart and marry him.
But
when Eliza discovers that there is more to the man she loves—and to her
marriage—her trust is shattered. And it will take all of Hugh's power
to prove that now his words of love are real.
