Description
'A swashbuckling, sparkling world of a novel' Suzannah Dunn
Thrilling Regency romance, set against an Outlander-like background of passion and war, this will delight lovers of Poldark and Bridgerton.
1817 Cornwall and London
In a family scorched by scandal and scarred by war, Crow, the Earl of Lamorna, is as self-destructive as he is charismatic, and it will only take one spark to set his world aflame. So when Crow's young brother catches him in flagrante with their widowed stepmother, a lethal chain of events is set in motion.
Heiress Hester Harewood is on the run from the men who shot her father. The last thing she needs is a complicated aristocrat offering her his protection. But who is more dangerous? Those she is running from? Or Crow himself? For Crow is glamorous and unpredictable, yet capable of such tenderness that Hester's heart is in as much danger as her life...
Game of Hearts was previously published as False Lights by K.J. Whittaker and on Kindle as Hester and Crow by Katy Moran.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Praised for its excellent writing and characterisation, especially of Hester, a lively and resourceful heroine, the novel is described as lush, dark, utterly real, and achingly romantic (Ruth Ware). Reviews highlight its thrilling, sweeping narrative with desperate deeds and derring-do, complemented by rugged landscapes and compelling, strong-willed characters reminiscent of Poldark and Bridgerton. The book captivates readers with its wit, excitement, and heartfelt storytelling.
