This was fun! So many couples, so many vague, bruised relationships. Obviously we will get more info in the next books, but I still have many questions!

This was a more complicated and unpredictable story than I expected, and therefore more enjoyable. I liked the love triangle element and the wide cast of characters. The sexual tension was off the charts. A fun read!

A good light Georgian romance, although not quite as strong towards the end. Lots of witty banter and interesting, if unlikely, characters. Hero and heroine paled in comparision to many of the secondary characters though. Still a fun read.

Welcome to a world of reckless sensuality and glittering sophistication . . . of dangerously handsome gentlemen and young ladies longing to gain a title . . . of games played for high stakes, including—on occasion—a lady's virtue.

A marquess's sheltered only daughter, Lady Roberta St. Giles falls in love with a man she glimpses across a crowded ballroom: a duke, a game player of consummate skill, a notorious rakehell who shows no interest in marriage—until he lays eyes on Roberta.

Yet the Earl of Gryffyn knows too well that the price required to gain a coronet is often too high. Damon Reeve, the earl, is determined to protect the exquisite Roberta from chasing after the wrong destiny.

Can Damon entice her into a high-stakes game of his own, even if his heart is likely to be lost in the venture?

I am and was more interested in what is going to happen to Jemma and her duke. I still enjoyed the story and the oh so witty and full of double meaning remarks between Jemma, Villiers and Beaumont.

I didn't hate this book but I didn't like it either. There were so many characters with confusing motivations and I hate not being able to tell who I should be rooting for, which was the case while reading this HR. To summarise, although there were some very cute moments, I just couldn't bring myself to care about any of the characters or their plot lines.
