description: LUCKYAT CARDS...
  
  Lydia Whitney, the daughter of a notorious gambler, guessed that she'd inherited her father's redoubtable luck when she tumbled out of a tree...and into the arms of the sixth Earl of Standford! Fortune smiles on her once again -- or so she thinks -- when Standford hires her as a companion to his aunt. What he neglects to mention is that Aunt Carolyn is also an incorrigible gambler who is in danger of wagering away the entire family fortune.
  
  ... WILL THIS LADY BE UNLUCKY IN LOVE?
  
  Nothing would please Carolyn more than to have "Faro Freddie's" daughter by her side in the elegant gaming halls of London. And nothing would dampen Lydia's blossoming romance with Standford faster than for him to discover her true identity. Now, bedecked in dazzling gowns and whisked through the glittering ballrooms of the ton, Lydia knows she is playing a dangerous game...a game where all her dreams of love could be won -- or lost.
