Will the de Wolfe legacy once again lead to love?
Ruby Compton's world is upended when she meets a handsome stranger who doesn't belong on the rough streets of London she calls home. When the man is knocked unconscious in a brawl, she's compelled to come to his rescue, unaware her efforts will thrust her family into danger.
Gideon de Wolfe discovers he owes his life to a beautiful woman whose strength and intelligence remind him of the family legend. He intends to find a way to repay her but also determined to reveal who's behind a lottery scheme that destroyed the lives of some of his workers and nearly took his own.
Ruby is taken aback by Gideon's gratitude. His kindness and concern--not to mention his kisses--cause her to long for the dreams her harsh life forced her to relinquish years ago.
Now, with criminals after them, Gideon must find a way to end the scheme and save Ruby and her family, as well as himself. Ruby vows to help despite the fact that Gideon has shaken her simple life and it will never be the same.
She must decide if she's willing to gamble everything she thought she wanted for love.
