Ecstasy's Gamble — Amy Christopher

SHE WAS AT HIS MERCY -- It was sheer desperation that made Jessica Carlton try to cheat a man like Damien Trevor at cards. The raven-haired beauty needed the winnings to keep her greedy stepmother from selling her into a loveless marriage, but the handsome Duke was impossible to beat. So when it was her turn to deal, she took his cards from the bottom of the deck and promptly found herself trapped in his unyielding embrace, at the mercy of a man whose green eyes glittered with desire for more than revenge!

HE WAS UNDER HER SPELL -- Damien held the sapphire-eyed temptress tightly and grinned. The scheming vixen had thought she could best him but now he had the best of her! If she didn't want him to ruin whatever reputation she had left, she'd have to play by his rules now. And that meant spending as many nights as he demanded in his bed, where he could make her pay what she owed in sweet gasps of pleasure and soft moans of delight until they had both won ECSTASY'S GAMBLE.
