Description
In this Regency romance by Jennifer Monroe, an infamous rake and a penni-less woman find themselves entangled in a liaison based on lies... and love.
A woman he overhears at a party boasting of her family’s wealth.
A woman who can change his life forever if she can believe just one little lie.
A woman named Miss Emma Hunter…
Lord St. John’s reckless ways at the Rake Street Gaming Hell has driven his estate to near bankruptcy. In desperation, Andrew relies on his one saving grace—charm. With each sweet kiss and tender whisper of love, he convinces naïve, wealthy women to part with both jewelry and coin. Still falling short, Andrew sets his sights on a beautiful young lady who apparently comes with the largest dowry he’s ever known.
The man whose great wealth can purchase her hand.
The man who can save her heart if he believes just one little lie.
A man named Andrew St. John, whose charm she cannot resist.
Miss Emma Hunter never forgot her introduction to the infamous Baron of Rake Street. The kiss he’d demanded left her breathless—and stole her heart. Unfortu-nately, her father has promised her hand to another, so any notion of love with An-drew is just a dream. But when Lord St. John requests to call on her, he makes her believe dreams can come true.
From seedy gaming hells to abandoned castles, Andrew is running out of time to right the wrongs of his past. Now the problem is not only his near-ruined estate, but the growing feelings he has for Emma. To win her heart, he must tell the truth—a game of chance with the highest stakes he has ever played.

This is the second installment of Secrets of Sisterhood series. I enjoyed the first book of the series and this one also did not disappoint. This series is unique in that we already know the couple is happily married and we go back in time as the heroine relays her love story to her former headmistress of the finishing school she attended. This is Miss Emma Hunter's story.
Andrew has been quite reckless with his money and the only way to surely save his estate is to marry a wealthy woman. He overhears Emma boasting about the wealth of her family at a party and decides she is the answer to his money problems. Emma needs to get out of an arranged marriage and doesn't believe the rumors about Andrew and believes him to be just wealthy enough to help her. Can a relationship that begins on lies be successful? Well, in this case, we know that it can, but seeing how they get their with the twists and turns in their story and how they over came the lies was well worth the read. A lovely addition to the series and I can't wait to read the next one!
I received a complimentary copy from Wolf Publishing via Netgalley and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Miss Emma Hunter is ordered by her father to marry a man almost 3 times her age. Her family is poor and she really has no other prospects until..... Lord St. John overhears a fantastical conversation between two ladies who are dreaming. Lord St. John is also poor but needs to marry wealth.
This is my first novel for this author. I enjoyed the level of detail also the sweet and clean writing. Happy reading.
I enjoyed advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
