A Rake's Guide To Pleasure (Zebra Historical Romance)
Emma, Lady Denmore, is the talk of London’s ton. Always in the middle of a game of chance, the young widow flouts convention by betting on anything. Emma’s plan is to win enough money and then disappear from London before anyone who can unmask her charade arrives in town for the season. Growing up with her debauched father, Emma never entered society and wants nothing to do with it; she only wants enough money to live a simple life in a small cottage. She is well on her way to achieving her goal when Hart, Duke of Sommerhart, appears. When she was a child, he allayed her fears concerning her father’s degenerate guests, and she remembers him as her knight in shining armor. But now he is an obstacle, blocking her way to independence. Dahl is a new author who will soon be a favorite among fans of sensual historical romances, given her intriguing and dynamic characters. --Patty Engelmann
