A Bet On Hearts [Romantic Comedy] by Sylvia-Norcroft
32 parts Complete Mature
[IMPORTANT: This is a closed-door romance story that caters to readers who are uncomfortable reading heavy erotica and adult scenes.] Miss Mina Haswell has always been a firm believer in matters of the heart, holding steadfast to the notion of love, especially when it came to her betrothed, a dear childhood friend. However, fate took a cruel turn, as she found herself draped in mourning attire, her heart shrouded in grief, unable to fathom the prospect of love ever gracing her life again. Following her father's untimely demise, the esteemed title of Viscount Sinclair, which he had borne with distinction, is unexpectedly passed on to a distant kinsman, the somewhat reclusive Mr. Royston Langdon. As their paths converge, Mina and Royston embark upon an unconventional journey, filled with twists of fate and unforeseen challenges. Intrigued by the enigmatic Miss Haswell, Mr. Langdon proposes an audacious wager - a game of hearts. If Mina succeeds in aiding Royston in winning the affections of his potential bride, he pledges to magnify her inheritance settlement threefold. In return, should Royston assist Mina in capturing the heart of her desired suitor, she would be compelled to relinquish her beloved summer residence, a sanctuary where her fondest memories were woven, amounting to a significant portion of her settlement. Their stakes are equal, for Mina had lived far from the scrutinizing gaze of the ton, while Royston remains a newcomer to its glittering, complex world. Yet patience is not a virtue Miss Haswell is known for, and Mr. Langdon seems to derive a peculiar pleasure from vexing her at every turn. Amidst the whirlwind of emotions, societal expectations, and their ever-escalating exchanges, a question lingers: Could this daring wager, initiated by the whims of fate, possibly result in a victor, or would the unpredictable game of love rewrite the rules entirely?

"No respect for the dead." His words came out in silent whispers, his teeth clenched. A small smile tugged on her lips. "Respect is earned in life, my lord. When a man fails to earn respect in life, it cannot suddenly be bestowed on him simply because he returned to the dust whence he came." "At the very least, Lady Atkins, pretend," he admonished. "Pretend to mourn for your husband! You are a woman in mourning! Grief, sadness, decency is expected of you," he growled, stepping so close to her, his nose almost kissed hers. "Not a low-cut, salacious red dress!" She inched forward, jaw set, until she could feel his warm breath on her skin. "And you are a man whose cousin's widow was only a few minutes ago caught with a man on top of her," she shot back, leaning further in until her lips were nearly brushing his as she searched his gaze. "Anger, rage, fury, is expected of you, my lord... Not jealousy!" * Newly widowed, the sudden death of Beatrice's husband has brought about her freedom from the shackles of a loveless marriage... Or so she thinks. All hope is quickly lost when she discovers her husband's cruelty in disinheriting her and leaving her penniless. But worse than his decision to disinherit her, is his decision to leave her at the mercy of his cousin; Noah, the very handsome Marquess of Camden. TW: This story contains mentions of suicide.
