Lady Pandora Ravenel is an ambitious young woman with dreams of running her own board game business, far removed from the typical debutante's aspirations. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she finds herself entangled in a scandal with Gabriel, Lord St. Vincent, a cynical rake who has always managed to avoid marriage—until now. Despite their initial reluctance, Pandora and Gabriel find themselves drawn to each other, leading to a marriage of convenience that quickly becomes much more. /n/n As their relationship deepens, Pandora's entrepreneurial endeavors inadvertently pull her into a dangerous conspiracy. With her life at risk, she must rely on Gabriel for protection. Together, they navigate the perilous plot, discovering that their devil's bargain may just be the match made in heaven they never expected.
