In this sizzling third book in New York Times bestselling author Liz Carlyle’s compelling Neville trilogy, a cynical rake joins a sinister game of cards with dangerously seductive stakes.

If he wins this hand...

Shunning the glittering elite of high society Kieran, Baron Rothewell, prefers the dangerous pursuits of London’s demimonde. Hardened by a tormented past, he cares little for anyone or anything. So how can he resist the wager proposed by the dissolute Comte de Valigny? A hand of cards for the possession of the comte’s exquisite daughter.

Will he win her heart?

Abandoned by her highborn father—until he decides to use her—Mademoiselle Camille Marchand puts no trust in an aristocrat’s honor, especially that of the notorious baron. She too is gambling—for her life—and Rothwell is just one more card to be used. But whatever dark desires run through his veins call to her own, and the heart plays its own game...winner take all!
