He wagered on her marriage prospects.
She staked her heart on his redemption.
Neither expected to risk everything.
London, 1819. After two disastrous courtships, American heiress Amelia Edgewood has sworn off marriage altogether. But when she overhears the notorious Lord Nathaniel Sterling betting he can secure her a proposal by the end of the Season, she throws down a challenge of her own: if he wins, the money goes to her cherished orphanage.
What begins as a simple arrangement quickly spirals into something far more dangerous to her heart. As Nathaniel introduces Amelia to eligible bachelors, she plays the part of the perfect debutante—until a twist of fate leaves sixteen orphans without shelter. In a move that shocks society and himself, Nathaniel offers his mother's Bloomsbury townhouse to house the children—with Amelia under the same roof.
As scandal brews and rumors swirl, their pretend partnership becomes harder to deny. With a child's life on the line and emotions running high, Amelia and Nathaniel must decide what matters most: reputation, redemption... or a love neither of them saw coming.
Perfect for fans of Lisa Kleypas, Julia Quinn, and Sarah MacLean, A Gentleman's Gamble offers:
✔ An ice-cool American heiress with no time for nonsense
✔ A devil-may-care rake hiding a wounded heart

About the author
Violet Sinclair writes historical romance for readers who believe a glance across a ballroom can ruin you more thoroughly than a kiss.
Her heroines are American — bold, inconvenient, and absolutely unwilling to be grateful for the privilege of marrying into British aristocracy. They crossed an ocean with their own money and their own opinions, and they have no intention of leaving either at the door. Her heroes are titled, impeccable, and accustomed to women who follow the rules. They have never met anyone like her. They are not prepared.
