Samuel Dartmoor, Duke of Dartmoor, has spent his life rebuilding his family’s tarnished legacy, gambling not only with his wealth but with his reputation. When he wins the sprawling Haddington Manor in a fateful card game, he believes he has gained another piece in his quest for respectability. What he doesn’t expect is to find a grieving family still residing within its walls, and a fiery, determined woman who challenges his every belief.

Lady Fiorentina Haddington is no stranger to loss, but her brother’s reckless wager threatens to rob her of the only home she’s ever known.

    Well written, full of drama, society, love, romance, emotions, gambling, suspense and betrayal of the families. Samuel is a Duke who is trying to regain his name after receiving the title. He uses everything in his powers to bring his family name to the good. At a card game, he wins a manor, which he hopes will help his cause. On arrival there he finds the family still there and protecting their home and themselves. Fiorentina has to stand up against Samuel for everything that means any thing to them. Samuel is a real nasty person at the start of this book, you just want something bad to happen to him. Glad to see his personality gets better as the book goes on. She is a sweet, strong girl who is caring for her family. As they butt heads many times to get to their happily ever after. Great characters and a fantastic storyline. Would recommend to others.
    I received this book and leave this unbiased, honest review.

    Another great book from Sally Forbes! We are introduced to the Duke of Dartmoor, Samuel, and Lady Florentina in this book. He is trying to make a name for himself after his father left their family name in ruins and will stop at almost nothing in his quest. She is helping her family grieve the loss of her father in the absence of her brother the new lord. What happens when her brother, Lord Haddington loses their family home to the Duke in a game of cards especially when the Duke was not expecting Florentina, her mother, and sisters to still occupy the home? See how the Samuel and Florentina navigate an secret betrothal, aspiring ladies, and schemes to separate them? Does Samuel redeem himself in his quest for more notoriety? Read and find out!

    I love Florentina's dedication and loyalty to her family and it becomes the driving force for the choices she makes throughout the novel. Samuel at the beginning portrayed himself as quite self-centered and single minded in his quest to oust the Ladies from the Haddington House which was very off putting at first. I would definitely recommend for those looking for a wonderful and clean romance!

    I admit that after the first few chapters I wanted to throught the book across the room. I was so upset with the wicked, arrogant, and selfish Duke of Dartmoor I wanted to scream. But I'm glad I continued reading. The characters are very engaging and filled with emotion. And it was a joy seeing the change develop in the Duke. Add a few surprises and your not be able to put this book down.

    The hero was a rather unlikable character, at first. The heroine is quite amazing. She comes across as near perfect. Unpleasant circumstances beyond their control throw them together, against their will. She is the complete opposite of him so her selflessness makes his selfishness stand out. This begins to bother him and...well you'll have to read it to find out what happens.  The ending is nice though I'm not a fan of this new 'extended epilogue' trend.

    I finished this book in one sitting. I couldn’t put it down. The characters were great and really got me invested in the story. I loved it!
  • Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2025
    This novel is super! Samuel begins as an arrogant, self-serving duke who is consumed with the desire to own - wealth, properties, admiration - but cannot see what treasures he already has in his life. It is heartwarming to read of his transformation, with help from his friends and the beautiful and inspiring Lady Florentina. Lord Crawley is a gem. This book is a gift to the heart.

    Reviewed in Germany on January 19, 2025
    This book had me on an emotional rollercoaster, Fiona is too good to be of this world and I simply couldn't understand how she could fall for a selfish gambler like Samuel, I see gambling as a form of addiction and I doubt Samuel will be able to abstain from it for good, so the next problems probably are just around the corner...
