Good earl gone bad
(Book)

"St. Martin's Paperbacks historical romance"--Spine.

Marriage? To a gambler? You must be joking! Lady Ophelia Dauntry has never been one to back down from a challenge. And when her spendthrift father does the unthinkable and loses her hand in marriage at the gaming tables, she is faced with the challenge of her life. Not only in the man she'll be forced to marry--the Earl of Mainwaring--a gamester, he's also a member of the Lords of Anarchy--the driving club she holds responsible for her dear friend Lucinda's confinement in an asylum, though they have never claimed responsibility.
