Fortune Hunter (The Regency Collection, #3)

Never bet on an heiress...
When his father gambles away the family fortune, Viscount Sheffield must find himself a wealthy wife. Undaunted by her reputation as Lady Disdain, he wagers he will win the hand—and heart—of Miss Melissa Hampton.
Heiress Melissa Hampton holds her suitors in contempt, but the handsome, witty, and charming viscount woos her like no other. Is the man more than what he seems, or is he just another fortune hunter?
And in this game of love, who is in danger of losing all?

Two-time RITA Finalist Deborah Simmons is a USA Today bestselling author of historical romances originally published by Avon, Harlequin, and Berkley, as well as a romantic comedy.

I began my writing career as a journalist, but left nonfiction for the world of happily ever afters. I've written historical romances originally published by Avon, Harlequin, and Berkley, as well as a romantic comedy.
My books A Lady of Distinction and The Gentleman Thief were finalists in Romance Writers of America's annual RITA competition. Two other releases, The Gentleman's Quest and Glory and the Rake (now titled Glory and the Duke), were up for The Daphne du Maurier Award of Excellence for Mystery/Suspense. And my work has been translated and published in more than thirty countries, with graphic novel editions available for some titles.
I believe in strong heroines, wry humor, a touch of mystery, and love that can't be denied.
