Jack of Clubs

About This Book

Years ago, Captain Jack Endicott's half-sister vanished after a carriage accident. He now sets out to honor his father's dying wish and find her. Jack plans to open a lavish gaming parlor and hire only beautiful ladies to deal cards — possibly finding his sister in the process. All he needs is a little luck.

Instead he finds prim schoolteacher Allie Silver, who needs a guardian for one of her most precocious pupils. With such an unlikely duo, all bets are off in a wild game of romance.

Jack of Clubs is Book Two of the House of Cards Trilogy, following Ace of Hearts. The series can be read in order or as a standalone. For readers of Regency romance, mismatched-couple comedies, and Barbara Metzger's distinctive blend of wit and warmth.

Barbara Metzger was one of the most beloved voices in Regency romance, the author of more than forty novels and recipient of multiple awards including the Romantic Times Career Achievement Award. Her books are defined by their sharp wit, warm humor, and the pleasure of watching genuinely well-matched people work their way toward each other — often despite their own stubbornness. This title is distributed through Simon & Schuster and available in paperback and digital formats.
