Georgette Heyer

Opis

Renowned gamester Max Ravenscar regards all eligible females with indifference. But when he meets the woman his cousin is bent on marrying - the beautiful Deborah Grantham, mistress of her aunt's gaming house - finds that none of his experience in risk and gambling has prepared him for such a worthy opponent.
