Romance title: Wicked All Day

New York Times bestselling author Liz Carlyle continues her enthralling historical series with the story of an impetuous, illegitimate beauty and the forbidding nobleman who protects her -- while fighting an obsession to possess her....

Miss Zoë Armstrong is beautiful, charming, rich -- and utterly unmarriageable. So, while she may be the ton's most sparkling diamond, her choice of husbands looks more like a list of London's most unsavory fortune hunters. Since a true-love marriage seems impossible, Zoë has accepted -- no, embraced -- her role as society's most incomparable flirt and mischiefmaker...until in one reckless, vulnerable moment, her future is shattered.

Stuart Rowland, the brooding Marquess of Mercer, has been part of Zoë's extended family since she was a child. As dark and cynical as Zoë is lively, Mercer has always known they would be the worst possible match...until his scapegrace brother Robert does the unthinkable, and winds up betrothed to Zoë. Now, secluded on Mercer's vast estate to escape a looming scandal and the ton's prying eyes, Zoë and Mercer may find that a dark obsession has become a tempestuous passion that can no longer be denied....

Wicked All Day

Chapter One
IN WHICH LA VICOMTESSE OVER PLAYS HER HAND.

The utter silence that hung expectantly over the card table was broken only by the distant clack!-clackity!-clack! of a roulette wheel somewhere in the depths of what had once been an elegant ballroom. But the merchant who had built the brick mansion two decades past had long since bankrupted himself on -- ironically -- a turn of the cards. And now, in the smokehazed gaming hell, over the merchant's former dinner table, a collective gasp held sway.

The swell of her ivory breasts shifting beneath her plunging bodice, Lufton's dealer leaned over the polished mahogany. The last card fell as if through water, sent floating from Mrs. Wingate's slender fingers like an autumn leaf seeking the rot and ruin of an earthly end.

The ace of hearts.

The collective gasp burst into exhalation, then into reluctant applause.

"Well played, my lord!" For the fifth time in as many hands, Mrs. Wingate pushed a pile of ill-got gains toward the Marquess of Mercer. "Will you try your luck again?"

With a stiff nod, the marquess relaxed into his ... read full excerpt from: Wicked All Day ebook

	wicked all day 11/03/2009
Reviewer: A viewer from NZ
this is the girl next door syndrome and I just loved the chemistry between all the characters and how they all seemed to be rather lost, and fumbling. Zoe is just lovely and a contradriction of brass and senstitivity. Robin and Mercer (brothers) are strong characters though I do prefer Mercer as he is more on the straight and narror. The best part is you never know who will end up with the girl.
