Beschreibung
In the lush fields of England's countryside, members of the upper social circles do not breed racehorses or delight in a brisk trot through town-they raise, ride and race dragons.

Disguised as a man, Elizabeth Bennet is able to ride and race dragons in nearby Liford without her family's knowledge. With the assistance of the head groom from the Meryton Inn, Elizabeth is able to truly be herself... if only for a little while.

After an exhilarating race that showcases her remarkable dragon riding skills and her affinity with the dangerous and unpredictable creatures, Elizabeth's deception is in danger of being discovered-how will Meryton society react to her daring secret?

But it is the arrival of a certain gentleman to Hertfordshire that could threaten everything Elizabeth has been building in secret. Will her acquaintance with Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy spell disaster for her reputation, or will she be able to continue to follow her heart?

Secrets, however, have a way of unraveling, and as the truth threatens to come to light, Elizabeth must confront her own fears that she will not be accepted for who she truly is.

A Lady's Gamble is an adventurous variation of Pride and Prejudice that is suitable for all lovers of Jane Austen's romantic classic, and those who like a little bit of fantasy with their Regency romance.
