Summary

Lydia Slaughter understands the games men play - both in and out of the bedroom. Not afraid to bend the rules to suit her needs, she fleeces Will Blackshear outright. The Waterloo hero had his own daring agenda for the gaming tables of London's gentlemen's clubs. But now he antes up for a wager of wits and desire with Lydia, the streetwise temptress who keeps him at arm's length.

A kept woman in desperate straits, Lydia has a sharp mind and a head for numbers. She gambles on the sly, hoping to win enough to claim her independence. An alliance with Will at the tables may be a winning proposition for them both. But the arrangement involves dicey odds with rising stakes, sweetened with unspoken promise of fleshly delights. And any sleight of hand could find their hearts betting on something neither can afford to risk: love.

Card Sharp Blue Stocking finds her Ace

Excellent narration. The best American doing British I've heard yet. Only very small clues "city blocks" and "posting" on a horse confirm the author is American too. That being said, the tale in well set with atmosphere and vernacular of the period with good descriptions of places and clothing to give credibility and interest in the unusual events and actions of the MCs, who are not the off the peg standards for this genre.

Lydia is a maths geek, her mind bound up with stats and formulae. Blackshear is not scholarly but she schools him in what she wants from him to reach their ultimate goals.

Good intelligent tale, with humour and minimal angst. Book 3 here I come.

VERY ENJOYABLE
