"A decade ago, the Marquess of Bourne was cast from society with nothing but his title. Now a partner in London's most exclusive gaming hell, the cold, ruthless Bourne will do whatever it takes to regain his inheritance-including marrying perfect, proper Lady Penelope Marbury. A broken engagement and years of disappointing courtships have left Penelope with little interest in a quiet, comfortable marriage, and a longing for something more. How lucky that her new husband has access to an unexplored world of pleasures. Bourne may be a prince of London's illicit underworld, but he vows to keep Penelope untouched by its wickedness-a challenge indeed as the lady discovers her own desires, and her willingness to wager anything for them...even her heart."--P. 4 of cover.

More like 3.5 but rounded up - really didn't like it in the early going but it finished very strong. Deducting that half a star for how long it took to get past the rough start. Loved the last third, though!
This book made me so sad. Most of it was Penelope alone-and whatever apology given was not enough. I am writing this review long after I read the book but I still think about how sad it made me
DNF'd at page 160.
I'm sorry!!! Don't hate me Sarah MacLean stans!!! Her heroes are just really not for me and I just do not find this fun.
Moving on
