Perfect for you if...

You love Regency romance with class-crossing tension and a heroine who refuses to repeat her mother's mistakes.
You're drawn to stories where disguise and deception create genuine intimacy between characters who shouldn't trust each other.
You want sensual, emotionally complex historical romance with high stakes beyond just 'will they kiss'.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer your Regency heroines to be unambiguously noble or respectable from the start.
You don't enjoy slow-burn tension built on secrets and lies, even when both characters consent to the game.
You want a neat, drama-free path to the happy ending without internal moral conflict from either protagonist.

About this book

Gemma Cassidy is the illegitimate daughter of an earl who escapes her abusive father by disguising herself as a stableboy. She infiltrates England's finest horse racing stable, only to find herself dangerously close to the Duke of Rakesley, a man whose life is carefully controlled and planned. The Duke has arranged everything to his satisfaction, including his search for a suitable duchess. Gemma's arrival disrupts his orderly world entirely. As they work together, an undeniable passion emerges between them. The Duke wants more than a temporary arrangement, but Gemma witnessed her mother live as the earl's mistress and refuses to accept less than everything. Odds on the Rake is a Regency historical romance set in England's racing world. It is the first book in the All's Fair in Love and Racing series.
