And who better to provide her with the experience than this legendary man? But when this odd, unexpected female propositions Cross, it's more than tempting. She wants science without emotion - the experience of ruination without the repercussions of ruination. Like any good scientist, Pippa's done her research and Cross's reputation makes him perfect for her scheme. And she knows just who to ask: the tall, charming, quick-witted bookkeeper of The Fallen Angel, London's most notorious and coveted gaming hell, known only as Cross.
Nearly engaged to Lord Castleton, Pippa wants to explore the scandalous parts of London she's never seen before marriage. The bespectacled, brilliant fifth daughter of the Marquess of Needham and Dolby cares more for books than balls, flora than fashion and science than the season.
