A woman auctioned off to pay a gambling debt finds her only hope lies
with a seductive stranger in this Regency romance from a USA

instead is forced to honor and obey the seductive stranger who comes to
her rescue. Purchasing a wife for 20,000 guineas wasn't the end game
Nicholas Barrington envisioned when he walked into the notorious
Newmarket gambling club. But the innocent Melissa arouses much more than
his protective instincts. It will take all of Nick's skill and daring to
best a cunning adversary hell-bent on his destruction. With two lives
now hanging in the balance, Nick's playing for the highest stakes of
all: his future with the woman who won his heart.
