The Duke's Wager - Between The Devil and the
Deep Blue Sea by Edith Layton
ISBN 0451120671 Signet
Summary
Lovely Regina Berryman was pursued by two men -- the two most attractive
and infamous bachelors in London.
One was Jason Thomas, Duke of Torquay, whose skill and success in seduction had made him a legend of lordly licentiousness. The other was St. John Basil St. Charles, Marquis of Bessacarr, the devilish Duke's only rival as the foremost rake of the realm.
These notorious gentlemen had made Regina fair game in a competition where all was considered legitimate strategy in winning her affection and capturing her virtue. And Regina's only chance of preserving her honor and protecting her heart was to turn the tables on her titled tempters -- and change the dallying way Regency London played the game of love...
