Synopsis

When her brother falls into the clutches of gamester Gavin Hunt, feisty heiress Persephone Fines — known to all as Percy — will do whatever it takes to save him. Hunt offers an outrageous proposition: he will release her brother if she can resist six nights of his seduction. What Percy doesn't know is that Hunt, a product of London's violent stews who spent ten years on a prison hulk for a crime he didn't commit, is using her to avenge himself on the man he believes responsible for his ruin — her own adopted father. As their battle of wits flares into uncontrollable passion, Gavin and Percy must learn to trust each other to defeat a hidden enemy from both their pasts. A steamy enemies-to-lovers Regency romance, book two of Grace Callaway's Mayhem in Mayfair series.
