Synopsis
Celebrate a Romantic Regency Christmas!
"...all the elements of warmth and magic one expects to find during the magical Christmas season." -Marilyn Rondeau, Reviewer's International Organization
Her Mistletoe Kiss (Previously published in the anthology Mistletoe Kisses)
The Christmas Season brings many gifts, but few as precious as a second chance at happiness. In the bleak midwinter of 1814, Christabel Wilton and her young son have little to celebrate. A soldier's widow has enough trouble making ends meet the rest of the year, let alone at Christmas. The last person she wants to see in her misery is Jonathan Frost, the suitor she jilted seven years ago. Frost only means to pay a brief duty call, but when he finds Christabel pale and feverish, he whisks her and her son off to his estate to recuperate. The only repayment he asks is that they stay and help him celebrate the holidays. Christabel reluctantly agrees. She does not feel she deserves Frost's generosity. The least she can do in return is bring some Yuletide cheer into his lonely life. The more time the spend together, the more Christabel regrets the deep hurt she once caused Frost. How easily she could lose her heart to him now...if only it is not too late!
"...long on emotions and the true spirit of the season: redemption, forgiveness and love." RT Bookreview
Snowbound With the Baronet
Sir Brandon Calvert spent the past four years trying to forget the beautiful debutante who rejected his marriage proposal. Just when he thinks he's succeeded, a fateful snowstorm strands him in the company of Lady Cassandra Whitney. Now Brandon must confront the past and the dangerous attraction her nearness threatens to revive! The last person Lady Cassandra expected to encounter on a snowy road to Bath is the man she never succeeded in banishing from her heart. Her reasons for refusing Sir Brandon's proposal are not what he believes. But how can she reveal the truth without exposing shameful family secrets? In the depths of a Regency winter, warm affections are quickly rekindled. But can the flame of true love burn bright enough to light the way for two lost hearts to find one another again, before the snow melts and they must go their separate ways? Or will Lady Cassandra get a second chance to say yes?
"What a delightful book! The flow was smooth, the angst frustrating, (as it should be), and the happy ending was just that!" Amazon Reviewer, Austintatious
Scandal Takes a Holiday
Scandal is afoot when a match-making countess invites three eligible heiresses and three cash-strapped noblemen to her holiday house party! Shy, sensible Lily Crawford fears her vivacious twin sister will wed a fortune-hunting aristocrat, who might bankrupt their late father's business and leave them penniless. She urges Iris to consider her devoted admirer Captain Aaron Turner, who won his invitation to the party in a high-stakes card game. The captain is reliable, resourceful and ruggedly handsome, but Iris has her heart set on being a titled lady, not the wife of disreputable privateer. Having made his fortune on the high seas, Aaron Turner is now ready to settle down and gain social acceptance by winning the beautiful, sought-after Iris Crawford. After she rebuffs his advances, Aaron enlists her sister to help him woo the reluctant heiress. When Iris falls ill, Lily takes her sister's place to give Captain Turner the proper encouragement. But she soon finds herself falling in love with the man who is determined to marry her sister! If her masquerade is discovered, the scandal could ruin three futures and break more than one heart. Can Lily find the courage to step out of her sister's shadow to claim the man of her dreams?
