Synopsis

When Hugh Deveraux inherits a bankrupt earldom, he sets out to rebuild the family fortune in London's gaming hells. A wealthy tradesman offers him a tantalizing wager: marry the man's spinster daughter and his debts vanish — but she must never learn of their bargain. Heiress Eliza Cross has given up on marriage until she meets the impossibly handsome new Earl of Hastings, her father's business partner, and loses her heart to him. But when Eliza discovers there's more to her husband — and to their marriage — than she knew, her trust shatters, and it will take everything Hugh has to prove his love is real.
