Fics like A Gentleman's Wager

A cruel betrayal has since turned Lord Ren into one of London's most notorious rakes. Contenting himself to a life of debauchery, the Earl of Alderaan has long been viewed by marriageable society as a lost cause. Yet a chance encounter with an orphaned pickpocket proves that love may be found in the most unexpected of places and that it is never too late to repair a broken heart. [excerpt]: "She looks smart and quick, Ren. If anyone could do it, I would bet on you." Ren laughed, the sound of it slightly harsh and foreign. "What, you would have me teach her how to be a scullery maid?" Hux shook his head. "Of course not. Perhaps you could introduce her to the ways of the gentry. Work to improve her manner and dress. With your guidance and the resources at your disposal, I wouldn't be surprised if you could transform this pickpocket into a lady." Ren snorted. "Yes. She is the model of a docile, educated and refined woman." "You have no desire to bed her. Perhaps an interaction with the fairer sex without such distractions would make you appreciate them in a different manner." Hux, ever the strategist, dared him with a gleam in his eyes. "Unless you're not up to the challenge."
