Lord Dorset finds that the shy, plain girl he married for money and left behind in London has not only become the proprietor of a high-class gambling house but a spirited beauty whom he must woo again.
HE DIDN'T WAGER ON LOVE...
The dashing Lord Dorset agreed to the marriage simply to please his family. Summoned abroad soon afterward, he left his wife in London, barely giving the shy girl another thought. Little did he know that in his absence she would become a beauty--and an ambitious young woman to boot!
To pay for her cousin's debut, Lady Dorset opens a high-class gambling house. Thinking her husband will never know, she is surprised at his sudden return...but her plucky spirit won't give him the higher hand. He must woo her again--and this time he'll need all his luck!
Hero: Jeremy Rufus Arlington, Lord Dorset
Heroine: Miss Mary Batten Arlington, Lady Dorset
