William, AKA Temple, was a Marquess and the heir to a Dukedom when he was accused of murder. This opens with the event. His father is getting married to bride #4. His future step-mother to be (Mara) is also younger than him. Mara drugs him and miscalculates; thinking only to "ruin" herself and make her marriageable, he instead is accused of murder and ostracized. William has no memory of that night. Fast forward, he becomes one of the founders of the Fallen Angel, an exclusive gaming hall.
I really didn't like what Mara did. I didn't like the circumstances of her re-introduction to Temple/William. The problem was there were strings attached to her coming forward. I didn't understand her loyalty to her asshole brother (although one could agree she was protecting her orphanage). I still found Mara to be a sympathetic character and when it was all said and done, I did like her. I do wish she had acted earlier. I thought William/Temple was an awesome character.

This is book 3 in the series and it wrapped up pretty well. Was somewhat lack luster with the storyline and it did feel forced and repetitive at times. Characters seemed to go back and forth in their feelings so much it was hard to keep which way they were feeling straight. I like the previous characters showing up, that is always fun to have them around.
I read all the books in the series and thought it was good light reading. I liked the characters and I liked their individual stories.
