Publisher Description
There’s no such thing as luck…
Once a lady, reduced to a governess, Emilia Greene is desperate. The child in her care has been left orphaned and penniless, and Emilia will do anything to protect her—even track down the girl’s only relation. That man would be the next Viscount Sydenham, and surely he’ll be gentleman enough to take care of his cousin.
Or scruples…
Unfortunately, that man is Nicholas Dashwood, the dangerously attractive owner of the notorious Vega Club. He’s no gentleman, and he doesn’t want a title. What Nick needs… is a governess, for his younger sister.
When your heart is at stake
Their precarious bargain throws them together in unsettling proximity, until neither can deny their attraction to each other. But Nick has enemies, and Emilia has secrets, and taking a gamble on happily-ever-after could cost them everything.
The final book in the Wagers of Sin series

by Caroline Linden
It was a while for this last book to get to us but I honestly have to say this, this was the best one of the series….in my opinion.
Emilia Greene has hit on some hard times, once she was a lady but now she’s a governess to a young girl that she’s totally loves as her own. Emilia is feisty and will do everything in her power to get her ward the safe home she deserves. Even if she has to proposition the only man that holds the secrets to every noble in London. Who’s notorious for his ruthlessness at the Vegas Club, Emilia didn’t hesitate to take the bull by the horns and look him straight in the eye and propose her scheme.
I believe that’s when Nicholas fell in love with her.
Nicholas Dashwood is a complex, self made and hard man,but with a soft side he doesn’t let people see except very few people. I loved him, he was cruel but fair in his dealings with his much beloved club and patrons.
He wasn’t looking for love but it knocked his universe of its axle. He really has a hard time believing what Emilia is telling him, he’s not part of the nobility no matter what the beauty with green eyes has been trying to convince him.
This last book was absolutely amazing, the characters were believable and the chemistry between Nickolas and Emilia was a slow burn that sizzled of the pages!
Caroline Linden has a way with words that grab the reader in the story and world of the characters.
I seriously recommend this to anyone who loves historical romance.
I received a complimentary copy from the author this is my unbiased opinion.
