All bets are off in this lively Victorian romance full of spice and wit! May the best gentleman win... A debutante? A Rakes, Rebels and Rogues story. Wealthy rail baron Thomas Hayward needs a duke's land to expand his empire, but the oaf insists on a ridiculous wager: they'll both woo debutante Miss Grace Lowerby, and if she chooses the Duke—which she surely will—Thomas gets the land at a cheaper price. He can't lose... To save her family, Grace must marry the Duke. And yet in dashing Thomas she's found a man she can finally be herself with. But focussing on her goal is paramount...until she discovers the wager and—annoyingly!—that it's Thomas she's falling for!
