Who is the Rogue?

Professional gambler Ethan Damont is the world's most reluctant spy. He'd rather play cards and flirt than fling himself into the dangerous arena of the Liar's Club—but the brotherhood just won't leave him alone! Being a brilliant card cheat and a skilled lover of married ladies shouldn't qualify Ethan to save the Crown, but he is repeatedly lured back into the intriguing world of the Liars. When they send him to infiltrate the home of a wealthy suspect, a man with a passel of unwed daughters and an heiress niece, Ethan is determined to do as little actual spying as he can get away with! That is, until he spies the lovely Lady Jane Pennington up in a tree in the suspect's late-night garden...

Lady Jane Pennington hates that she has to be rescued from a tree by a bold, ne'er-do-well gambler like Ethan Damont. She was only trying to see into a locked room in her uncle's house, yet another mystery in a very suspicious household. She has a secret that only Mother knows and her uncle must never find out—a secret she would never trust to a scoundrel like Ethan Damont! Except her heart cannot help but believe in him, even when Ethan takes a job with her deceitful uncle, even when her uncle turns on her and threatens her life! Will this rogue be her undoing...or is he the love she has always yearned for?
