Description:In the mid-19th century an unmarried 20-year-old girl was almost certainly a candidate for lifelong spinsterhood, an object of pity, even of contempt. If she happened to be pretty, wellborn, lively, and educated, it might have been said that her condition was caused by an intractable nature.If refusing to marry merely for the sake of being married meant that Camilla Fairfeild's nature was intractable, then intractable it was, for she resolutely refused to become the wife of any man she could not love.For her anxious parents there suddenly appears a ray of hope in the youthful, well-formed figure of the Duke of Strafford—the most relentlessly pursued eligible bachelor to quicken the hearts and hopes of society matrons with marriageable daughters in many a London season.All unknowning, Camilla had stolen a march on every other girl, for she had attracted the attention of the young Duke when she appeared incognito in one of London's gambling halls.There, she became known as Lady Fortune and there she attracted the attentions of the club's owner—to her all too bluntly expressed, if unavailing, chagrin. No matter how much she resisted, Camilla seemed to move deeper and deeper into a situation where scandal and ruin lurked just around every corner. And, in the end, it seems that her hand will be given—willy-nilly—in marriage to the victor in a duel where the weapons are a pack of cards and a game of chance.How Camilla and her Duke avoid the shoals of Victorian decorum and the obstacles to true love make for a wonderfully satisfying tale of love and romance.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
