Synopsis

Fiery, strong-willed Deb Grantham, who runs a gaming house with her aunt, is hardly the perfect wife for the young and naive Lord Mablethorpe. His lordship's family are scandalised that he proposes to marry one of 'faro's daughters', and his cousin the proud, wealthy Max Ravenscar decides to take the matter in hand. Ravenscar always gets his way, but as they lock horns, he and Miss Grantham become increasingly drawn to each other. Amidst all the misunderstandings and entanglements, has Ravenscar finally met his match?

About this title

From the Inside Flap:

When Max Ravenscar, renowned gamester, and by his own definition, untroubled by a romantic disposition, meets Deborah Grantham, beautiful mistress of her aunt's gaming house, all his experience of risk and gambles finds him unprepared.
