About this ebook

In the games men play, love is the riskiest roll of the dice…

In this scorching Regency romance, John, Earl of Summerset, retired spy, is dying of boredom—until his brother gambles away the family fortune. Determined to win it back, the dominant earl devises a clever plot that requires the perfect accomplice: a proper young miss who can play any role he demands.

Netta isn’t averse to a racket or two—if the payoff is right. As an actress and skilled pickpocket, she can become any woman the provoking earl desires and knows every trick in the book. But John is eager to prove that seduction is a game two can play… and the price of her employment may push her to the very edge with his favorite brand of psychological mind games.

When Netta’s dangerous past threatens to destroy John’s future, their best-laid schemes begin to unravel. As an enemy creeps closer, the pair risk losing far more than their hearts. To survive, they’ll need one last ace up their sleeves.

Played by the Earl is a steamy historical romance packed with Regency BDSM, psychological domination, Pygmalion transformation, disguised-identity intrigue, power-exchange games, and scorching love scenes. Reader discretion strongly advised.

Ever since John, Earl of Summerset, retired as a spy, his life has suffered from nothing but boredom, until his brother Robert gambles away his estate which is the source of the Summerset fortune. Determined to save his earldom, John devises a plot guaranteed to recover his property. All he needs is a proper young miss to assist him. Netta left home when she was barely seventeen & has survived but becoming an actress &part time thief as she needs every penny she can scrape together to make a life for herself & her young sister Eleanor in America. Their paths are thrown together when she's injured after stealing from a dandy. She could be just who John needs for his plan. When Netta’s past threatens to destroy John’s future, they discover even the best-laid schemes can go awry. The fifth book in the series, which could be read on its own. We do encounter the characters from earlier books & it was great to see how their lives have changed & how settled they are. I loved John in the earlier books & his story didn't disappoint. Netta was a breath of fresh air & exactly what John needed. I loved her lessons in becoming a ‘proper' young lady. The pace was very good & it was a page turner, my only quibble was that I felt the ending was rushed & I was left with some unanswered questions but felt that the opening was there for there to be more books & I’d love Wil to have his story. Hence a solid four star rather than five stars My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read

About the author

Like almost one-third of all romance writers, Alyson Chase is a former attorney. (Seriously, what is with all of us disillusioned lawyers?) She happily ditched those suits and now works in her pajamas writing about men’s briefs instead of legal briefs. When she’s not writing, she’s probably engaged in one of her favorite hobbies: napping, eating, or martial arts. (That last one almost makes up for the first two, right?) She also writes humorous, small-town, contemporary romance novels under the name Allyson Charles.
