Description from the publisher:
Disguised as a country miss,
Charlotte Devon flees London, desperate to leave her tattered reputation
behind. In Scotland, her estranged father’s noble blood will finally make her a
respectable debutante. Except she finds herself accidentally wed to a
devil-may-care rogue with a sinful smile. He’s the last thing she needs…and
everything her traitorous heart desires.
Charming rake Anthony Fairfax is on holiday to seek his fortune…and escape his creditors. When an irresistible Lady Luck wins him in a game of chance—and a slight mishap has them leg-shackled by dawn—the tables have finally turned in his favor. But when past demons catch up to them, holding on to new love will mean destroying their dreams forever.
The single title 2017 release is an expanded "Author Edition" of the story that first appeared in the Scandal's Daughters anthology.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Erica Ridley’s newest project, the
Rogues to Riches series, has a Cinderella theme. LORD OF CHANCE is the first of six books
planned for release.
Absolutely brilliant! Both Charlotte and Anthony hold the keys to
be the prince – providing all that is needed to make the other’s dreams come
true – and each is Cinderella in their own mind. Aren’t we all?
Each are living lives a hair-breadth
away from scandal. Well, actually, each
has practically been born into scandal, but each is determined to make the
world their own and rise above. They
just need the right bit of luck.
Ms. Ridley provides the luck – good and
bad – and sends us all on the roller coaster of chasing chance along with
Anthony and Charlotte. Now add in, we
are treated to a bit of a peek back to our friends from the Dukes of War
series, and this new series is a no-brainer for me. I am already deeply captivated and anxiously
awaiting the next episode when we will all fall in love with Lord Wainwright,
an infamous rake who is about to learn the art of love is more than the art of
love-making.
Note: while I was given this book as a gifted ARC,
through NetGalley, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
