Rakes and Roses, by Josi S. Kilpack

4.0

Loved this third book in the Mayfield Family series! Harry is a drunk, gambler, and rake. When he finally reaches a point where his drinking and gambling has nearly ruined him, he gains a glimmer of hope from a mysterious financer named Lord Damion. Lady Sabrina has had a difficult life. Born on the wrong side of the blanket and married to a detestable man, she finally gains her freedom and wealth untold when her abusive husband unexpectedly dies. When she comes across Harry at his lowest point, she immediately remembers the man who once captured her imagination with his kindness years before. She decides to help him but must remain on guard lest she lose her heart and everything she has gained.

I loved the romance between Harry and Sabrina. They have a unique relationship where in this case the woman has the upper hand and advantage. I loved how their interactions lead to love as they get to know one another. Love this series and can't wait for the next book!
