4 of 5 starsHayes Summersby, Viscount Ashworth, has pledged not to marry for another 2 years standing strong with his friends who will defy their fathers against being forced into marriage by a declining income. Ashworth is trying hard to pull the dukedom back into the black and supplements the title's income with his gambling skills, that is, until Lily Farnsworth with her photographic memory, soundly beats him. He's convinced she used some kind of trickery, but the more he gets to know her, the more attractive to him she becomes. Will he abandon the pact and finally succumb to love?
I really enjoy this series. 3 duke's sons down with 3 more to go. It's a great premise for the series and each story is inventive. Ms. Archer slowly teases out the details into Ashworth's need to gamble. It's not what you think and there's a few twists and turns in the book that will keep you turning the pages until the end. I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
I voluntarily read the advanced reader copy and all opinions are my own.
