Wager for a Lady's Hand: A Lockhart Sweet Regency Romance

Caught in a dangerous game, her only chance at freedom is to outwit the man determined to ruin them both.

Miss Marianne Twisden dreams of escaping her violent father and finding safety in marriage. But when she's forced into a betrothal with the cruel Lord Cockell, her hopes are shattered. Desperate for a way out, Marianne strikes a dangerous bargain: if she discredits Lord Sheldon Lockhart, England's rising barrister, Cockell will release her from the marriage contract.

Lord Sheldon Lockhart is determined to bring down Cockell, a ruthless man who preys on vulnerable gamblers. He never expected to fall for Cockell's most beautiful victim-Marianne.

As their bond deepens, so do the dangers. Cockell will stop at nothing to get his way, and Marianne and Sheldon must outmaneuver him at every turn. With their futures-and their lives-on the line, they must join forces, outwit their ruthless opponent, and claim the love and freedom they both desire.
