description: The Rake's Reform
  
  Cassia Penny runs a fashionable gaming house in Regency London. Her inspired style has always set the fashion...which is just the sort of talent Richard Blackley needs.
  
  Blackley is a self-made millionaire, determined to establish himself as a proper London gentleman. When Cassia loses a wager, he collects by demanding her services to refurbish his decrepit estate -- but finds her beauty the most gracious adornment his home could have.
  
  Now, as she transforms the old house, she transforms Richard, as well. The unlikely pair are drawn together -- until an old secret from Richard's past reappears. Will it tear them apart...or unite them forever?
