For “Lord of Vice,” the sixth book of the Rogues to Riches series, author Erica Ridley did a gender swap – the heroine was the aristocrat while the hero was the commoner. They share one thing in common though – both are very good at numbers and both are good in turning profitable investments.
But, a talent in business is not the only thing they share. Maxwell Gideon and Miss Bryony Grenville co-owns the gambling den that gave Maxwell his nickname “Lord of Vice.” Their partnership would end soon, thanks to the sunset clause in their contract.
Bryony could have waited for the deadline and make a ton of money, but she was impatient and also very curious about Max. Like a cat, she gave in to her curiosity. And if Bryony was not careful, she could end up like the old saying – curiosity killed the cat, figuratively speaking of course.
A very easy and enjoyable read, “Lord of Vice” is one of those books that you can make the cool autumn days pleasant and dreamy. A feel-good romance, “Lord of Vice” is Rated T for Teens.

Lord of Vice
Appearances can be deceiving…
Vice merchant Maxwell Gideon is wickedly handsome, sinfully arrogant, and devilishly ruthless. Rumor has it, his gaming hell has the power to steal souls and grant miracles. Truth is, Max only owns half of The Cloven Hoof. He’d buy out his silent partner if he knew the man’s identity. But it’s hard to focus on business matters when a fallen angel tumbles right into one’s lap…
Miss Bryony Grenville has a well-earned reputation as an unrepentant hoyden. But even the gossipiest of the pinch-faced matrons ruling High Society could never imagine the daughter of a baron secretly financing the ton’s most infamous gambling parlor. Its maddening, sexy proprietor doesn’t suspect a thing… and two can play at temptation!
