Summary
To root out the card cheat responsible for her brother’s death, Miss Delia Trevor spends her evenings dancing her way through high society balls, and her late nights disguised as a young man gambling her way through London’s gaming hells. Then one night, handsome Warren Corry, the Marquess of Knightford, a notorious member of St. George’s Club, recognizes her. When he threatens to reveal her secret, she’s determined to keep him from ruining her plans, even if it means playing a cat-and-mouse game with the enigmatic rakehell.
Warren knows the danger of her game, and he refuses to watch her lose everything while gaining justice for her late brother. But when she starts to delve beneath his carefully crafted façade, can he keep her at arm’s length while still protecting her? Or will their hot desires explode into a love that transcends the secrets of their pasts?
Impressions
An entertaining regency novel with great characters. Especially Delia who is daring and imprevisible for this period of time.
Even if the book and plot are pleasant, I found some length as I was curious to understand who was the man with the tattoo. The author has made me wait some time before giving me this answer. Too bad, it was wrapped out too easily.
Perfect if you want to read a romance but if you want some action, you will be dissapointed.
A good summer read to enjoy at the beach.

I received this book in exchange of a fair and honest review.
Open a book, it's like starting an adventure. You never know in advance whether it will make you travel, cry, laugh or shudder... Ouvrir un livre, c'est débuter une nouvelle aventure qui va vous faire voyager, rire, pleurer ou frisonner...
