About this ebook

From a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author:

Unpaid and under-appreciated journalist Miss Eve Shelling never goes anywhere without a trusty notebook and her overprotective Duenna—who happens to be a bullmastiff. Eve learned the hard way that men are not to be trusted. She's definitely not falling head-over-heels for the deceptively charming subject of her front-page column

Local blacksmith Monsieur Sébastien le Duc is the pillar of his community—when he's not pillaging elsewhere. He's a rakish dandy with a heart of stolen gold and two teeny tiny secrets. One happens to be a wee international smuggling operation. The other involves losing his heart to an ambitious journalist determined to expose the truth at any cost…

The 12 Dukes of Christmas is a series of heartwarming Regency romps nestled in a picturesque snow-covered village. Twelve delightful romances… and plenty of delicious dukes!

    ONE MAGNIFICENT EXPERIENCE!!!
    Blackguard! Erica flipped the coin, placed the bet, ramping up the stakes, mastering the game and owning the whole shebang blasting this baby to life brilliantly. Establishing well rounded scenario's, revving up the anticipation and adrenaline with such intensity and precision, fusing this gem together flawlessly. Sparks fly as drama, intrigue, deception, secrets and mounting suspense swirls, blasting this baby into the eye of the storm, breaking it down, throwing it into a tailspin with astonishing impacts. The chemistry builds as each layer is peeled back exposing an undeniable bond and amplifying affections that fuses this jewel together beautifully. The personalities are well matched and blended with just enough flaws for diversity. The characters and scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and colorful descriptions so rich and lively, they blend and flow magnificently. Remarkable job Erica, thanks for sharing this little jewel with us.
