The Danger in Daring a Lady (The Naughty Girls #4)

The Danger in Daring a Lady (The Naughty Girls, #4)
Title: The Danger In Daring A Lady (Naughty Girls #4)

Author: Emma Locke

Stars: 4 out of 5

Review:
A masterpiece in the telling. Lord Darius Alexander or Dare as he prefers to be called meets his match in Caitlin Hart, a land rich but penniless farm owner he meets in a card game in Gloucestershire. While trying to earn back his brother's draft for 100 pounds he finds an inner peace and happiness. However, as in all good romance stories there is agnst, overwhelming sexual attraction, and vices to overcome before true happiness can be achieved. The reader should also recognize the underlying fight against addiction (in this case gambling) which is the cornerstone of this story.
I gave it four stars for content and readability. If you enjoy historical romance this book should be on your must read list.
I received an ARC from Netgalley for my unbiased review.

Synopsis:
A WAGER HE CAN'T AFFORD TO LOSE
Devil-may-care rogue Lord Darius Alexander can’t resist a wager. When a game of cards is suggested at the remote inn where he’s stopped for the night, he antes up his family’s savings, certain his Town bronze will give him the advantage. He never expects to lose his fortune to the irritatingly confident, uncommonly beautiful hoyden daring to play with the men. …Nor does he expect to lose his heart.

A WOMAN HE DOESN'T DESERVE TO WIN
Caitlin Hart is known for her good sense. When a ridiculous reprobate tosses his savings onto the gaming table, she doesn’t hesitate to divest him of it. But Lord Dare won’t accept defeat like a gentleman. He suggests a compromise, and before long the handsome scoundrel is working back his losses on her small farm. But her neatly plowed fields might be too close for her heart’s content, for soon she finds herself wondering if she can dare him to stay forever when the last of his coin is tucked safely into his pocket.
