After reading Never Lie to Lady and Never Deceive a Duke, curiosity had me impatiently waiting for Kieran's story. I was not disappointed.
From the back of the book:
In this sizzling third book in New York Times bestselling author Liz Carlyle's compelling historical trilogy, a cynical rake joins a sinister game of cards with dangerously seductive stakes.
If he wins this hand...
Shunning the glittering elite of high society Kieran, Baron Rothewell, prefers the dangerous pursuits of London's demimonde. Hardened by a tormented past, he cares little for anyone or anything. So how can he resist the wager proposed by the dissolute Comte de Valigny? A hand of cards for the possession of the comte's exquisite daughter.
Will he win her heart?
Abandoned by her highborn father -- until he decides to use her -- Mademoiselle Camille Marchand puts no trust in an aristocrat's honor, especially that of the notorious baron. She too is gambling -- for her life -- and Rothwell is just one more card to be used. But whatever dark desires run through his veins call to her own, and the heart plays its own game -- winner take all!

From the back cover:
Beautiful, wealthy Katherine Deveraux doesn't think she's better than everyone else--she knows it. Her snobbish ways alienate whomever she meets--and her parents fear her marriage prospects are ruined. Determine to uncover their hard-hearted daughter's soft side, they ask Countess Christiane d'Oliveri for help...
The Countess has the perfect solution: a French ne'er-do-well known as Alain Montclair. He agrees to seduce Katherine and then break her cold heart in two--a daunting task, to be sure. But this charming rogue is most surprised to find that Katherine--behind her haughty airs and petty pretensions--is a deeply lonely woman desperate for love...
