Publisher's Summary:
Nondescript "good girl" Miss Camellia Grenville only ever opens her mouth when forced to sing at her family's musicales. That is, until the night she infiltrates the ton's most scandalous masquerade ball on behalf of her sister, and finds herself in the arms - and the bed - of the one man she'd sworn to hate.
Irresistibly arrogant and unapologetically sensuous, infamous rake Lord Wainwright always gets his way. When he accepts a wager to turn his rakish image respectable in just 40 days, he never anticipates falling for an anonymous masked lover...or that discovering her identity would destroy them both.
In the Rogues to Riches historical romance series, Cinderella stories aren't just for princesses... Sigh-worthy Regency rogues sweep strong-willed young ladies into whirlwind romance with rollicking adventure.
Members Reviews:
Superb
Bravo, Erica Ridley. You've done it again.
This is an absolutely delightful and cheeky story where the hero just can't live down his rakish past.
His unthoughtful words cause Camellia's sister to lose a substantial amount of money that would have helped her with her home for young ladies giving them second chances in life and then he and Camellia have a word sparring tiff. So there are already bad vibes between them.
Then he saves Camellia from another's unwanted attention at a masquerade ball and finds himself falling head over heels in love with her. He Is totally floored because he doesn't know what to do about this and neither of them know who the other person really is as they are all masked at these balls.
This is such a super love story and it is told by Erica Ridley in her usual way, engrossing, endearing, enjoyable and easy to read and and the narration by Marion Hussey's narration is the cherry on the top. I heartily recommend both the ebook and the audio version.

Enchanting...
Eat your heart out Cinderella, you've just met your match. Camellia is a late bloomer, but when she breaks free her wallflower status quickly falls by the wayside. A masquerade ball, a sexy rake, a scandalous wager and liaison take her from the shadows to the spotlight. Her heart and reputation will never be the same. Lord of Pleasure dances it way into a classic as it scandalizes and romances as it succeeds in casting an enchanting spell.
Absolutely fantastic
If you could sum up Lord of Pleasure in three words, what would they be?
A fantastic ride
What was one of the most memorable moments of Lord of Pleasure?
I absolutely loved Lord of Pleasure. The scenes at the Masquerade Ball were wonderfully romantic. Lord Wainwright, a know rake, lives to be himself at the Ball. Hidden behind a mask, he feels he can finally be himself.
