Publisher Description
London, 1821
Lord Robert Dennington, the Marquess of Westfield, has long reveled in the freedom afforded him as the ducal heir. He knows he must someday do right by the Somerset line, but he's in no hurry to give up his carefree existence.
Helena Banbury is a bookkeeper in a gentleman's gambling club, adept at analyzing numbers and accounts but helpless for lack of influence. She's never belonged among the nobility on the gaming hell floors, but neither does she feel completely herself among the men who run the Hell and Sin Club, despite the fact that they are family. The once-illiterate girl from the streets wants more than the gilded walls her protective cage can offer.
When Robert mistakenly enters her chambers one night, Helena is forced out of her predictable life and thrust into the glittering world of Society. Will the charms of the marquess prove more perilous than any danger she ever knew on the streets?
Customer Reviews
Great start to a series from a trusted author
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Robert is an heir to an estate that is losing money. Helena is a duke's by-blow and has experienced a lot of pain in her life. From an unexpected meeting to being thrown together, Helena and Robert make a deal. Her determination to be more in charge of her life causes more trouble but also helps them to learn about each other. There were laughs, cheers, and tears as their story progressed. I highly recommend this book.
I received a copy of this story through Netgalley, and it is a Book Obsessed Chick Star Review selection. This is my unsolicited review of the ebook.
