Knave of Hearts: House of Cards, #1

By Morgan Lennox

He's a complete knave. She's determined to ignore him. Easier said than done...

I never expected to be caught.

Now I'm ostracised from my family, the powerful Cartice billionaire company, I helped to build, and my name is mud.

I need to make good.

Which would be easier - except I'm all too easily distracted by a woman I definitely shouldn't go anywhere near...

After betraying my family and losing my place in the family business, I'm still a billionaire - but is that all I have to offer her? And is it enough?


Gamble all you have on love...or cheat your own heart?
 

The explosive new contemporary romance from Morgan Lennox.
