The current state of Dr. Matthew Collier’s life? Disastrous. His heart is spectacularly broken, his last hope dashed, his dreams of joining the illustrious Athenaeum Club absurd. Oh, and his predilection for gambling (and winning) have unwittingly put him in the black books of one of London’s most tenacious hoodlums. A dalliance with an urbane society hostess, however appealing it may seem, would be exceptionally ill-advised at the moment.
Until she was determined to have him…
Having birthed two sons, Cressida considers her duty to her foolish (and deceased) husband done. She spends her days as she wishes, and her nights blessedly alone, save for the enjoyment of an unattached paramour here and there. When happenstance brings an earnest and handsome former acquaintance to hand, she cannot resist the urge to claim him as her own… but will it be at the expense of the easy, uncomplicated life she so cherishes?
A note to readers— Enticing Odds is a character-driven historical romance novel of 78,500 words containing open-door sex scenes and strong language.
