MISSING PARTS / ONE SHOT (3*- would be a 4 or 5 if it wasn't missing several double page spreads. There is enough to get the gist of the story, but it skips)- When her father bets her virginity to a noble of ill repute in a card game, the heroine flees before the winner can collect. To hide, she accepts a position as governess in a remote manor, but when she arrives she discovers the 'Captain' of the manor isn't actually looking for a governess. He is looking for wife!
