A game of hearts is a dangerous game to play, as hearts do break. If Lady Verity Huxley doesn’t marry soon… she will lose everything. Following her father’s sudden death, an ultimatum came from the lips of her stepmother: “marry, or your mother’s virtue will be put to question and so your fortune.” Her best option for marriage is her childhood friend, Christian, despite that she has always been secretly in love with his older brother, Jack. But with Jack being away, leading a roguish life in Europe, that is not going to be a problem. Or is it? Jack Gladstone, the notorious Jack of Hearts, returns back to London to assume his duties as the Duke of Sussex, where he finds his younger brother ready to make a marriage arrangement. How odd it was that the day he would meet his brother’s future wife, would be the day that he kisses her! Yet a flower bouquet to the wrong recipient and a scandalous walk at a ball seems to be enough to keep them apart… Jack has to figure out his feelings fast as another woman will come to shuffle the cards and play with his heart… Love games can be tricky, even if you hold the winning hand…
