It would be no hardship to court her.

Gil felt a sudden constriction in his chest—a jolt of unwelcome attraction.

Her disgrace, her downfall, would hit her brother hard. From all he had learned, Gil was convinced that the only way to be avenged upon the man was through his sister. The fellow had already gambled away most of his fortune, and seemed to care little for the fact. It was only his sister who was keeping him from bankruptcy and disgrace.

Gil turned away from the dancefloor, trampling his scruples. It had to be this way.

Again Gil stifled his conscience. It was only a whisper, easily pushed aside. His years as a soldier had inured him to much greater suffering than anything he was likely to inflict here. After all, it was not as if he planned any real harm to the woman. She would come to him willingly, but her seduction would be his revenge upon her brother. A seduction for a life.
