Lord of Scoundrels is a Regency romance novel by American author Loretta Chase. Published in 1995 by Avon Books , it is the third installment of her Débauchés series. Set in 1828, the story follows the Marquess of Dain, an aristocrat known as "Lord Beelzebub " and the "Lord of Scoundrels" for his unscrupulous, immoral behavior.
Her first Regency manuscript, Isabella, was bought by the first New York editor who read it and led to a successful career as a romance author. Chase said of her marriage: "The books resulting from this union have won a surprising number of awards, including the Romance Writers of America RITA® Award."
The novel opens in 1821, when 21-year-old Michael Lawler, Marquess of Bourne, wagers his entire inheritance in a card game - and loses it all to his former guardian. The book resumes 10 years later. Bourne has become a co-owner of The Fallen Angel, a gambling club in London.
