Enter the world of the most notorious gambling den in London, where matches are made... unusually. Welcome to the world of THE LYON'S DEN: The Black Widow of Whitehall Connected World, where the underground of Regency London thrives... and loves. Kissing her had been a terrible miscalculation on his part. But laughing with her, finding something to enjoy about being in her company, that could well be an unmitigated disaster. Welcome to the next Lyon's Den book by USA Today Bestselling author Chasity Bowlin! Garrick Bancroft, Viscount Lynley, is in dire need of both a wife and a fortune. He thought he'd found the perfect woman to fulfill both very nicely. But just days before they were to marry, she fled to Scotland in the arms of her younger brother's tutor. Left high and dry, there's only one option-Mrs. Bessie Dove-Lyon, London's most notorious matchmaker. With desperation as his constant companion, Garrick informs her that any young lady will do...so long as she has the appropriate accompanying fortune.
Miss Ellis Lockhart is in a terrible situation. Embarking on her fourth season with not a prospect in sight, her sisters are beginning to turn on her. Her infamously tightfisted father has refused to have more than one daughter launched in society at any given time. Until she makes a match, her sisters must hover in the background-waiting as spinsterhood looms over them all. Out of desperation, she reaches out to Mrs. Dove-Lyon and begs for her assistance...anyone will do, so long as he is a gentleman of rank.
There's really only one problem and it becomes apparent when the duo meet at the church for their wedding-Garrick and Ellis are not unknown to one another. In fact, they rather hate one another.
But with the help of a little luck, and the meddling of Mrs. Dove-Lyon, they might soon realize that the line between love and hate is a fine one, and a fiery one, indeed. Read Free in Kindle Unlimited!
