The King of Threadneedle Street (A Rougemont Novel Book 2)

Andrew Tilmore, Lord Preston, owns three shipping companies, a diamond mine, and his own castle. He knows Portuguese, Hindi, Mandarin, and Morse code, and his assets net thirteen million. But the financial prodigy dubbed €œThe King of Threadneedle Street€ wants the one prize money can€t buy: his childhood sweetheart.

Alysia Villier can€t decide if it€s worse having Andrew€s father in control of her inheritance or Andrew in control of her heart. He€s ruined her for any other man, but she simply can€t give in to him. Andrew is destined for great things€"marrying a courtesan€s daughter isn€t one of them.

Keeping Alysia away from eager suitors is a cross-continental quest for Andrew, and he won€t be stopped by his old-fashioned family or the disapproval of the ton. He€s a man with the power to play newspapers and investors like pawns, tumble world markets and incite riots€¦but can he win the biggest gamble of his life?
