Dangerous Angels

A young lady, Melissa, is abducted & sold by her physically and sexually abusive father at a gaming hell. The hero, Nick, ends up buying & then marrying her. The usual rigmarole of gaming debts, kept secret from her husband, leading to foolhardy clandestine meetings with the villain follow. Not content with hairbrained meetings in isolated spots with the rogues, the heroine must needs run away at the end to see if her husband truly loves her. The hero is the usual most handsome, most virile, most wealthy, most eligible yet most elusive omnipotent, omniscient Appollo of Regency romances.
The saving grace of the book is the period research and psychological research that has gone into it.
