About this series

Four years ago, Gabriel Preston, Duke of Beckhampton prepared to ask for the hand of his love, Lady Eliza Clayton. Then she vanished. Rumors ran rampant through Polite Society, each one suggesting a different theory, yet all resulted in the same conclusion: Lady Eliza didn't love him. Vowing never to bare his soul to a woman again, Beck locked himself away on his estate.

 

After protesting, cajoling, and crying daily for four years, Lady Eliza has finally convinced her mother to allow them to return to England from Boston, where they'd been "visiting" family. She knew the true reason for their voyage, despite Mama's denials. Her parents refused to allow her to marry the Duke of Beckhampton. Yet after all this time apart, Eliza still loved him.

 

Beck is shocked when Eliza appears in Society once more, and even more surprised to discover he desires her after all the pain she caused him. He's feeling the Christmas spirit for the first time in years. Falling under her spell, he plans to profess his love when she vanishes yet again.

    Matilda starts a war with a brooding Lord Castleton when she throws a snowball at his head... Becoming the Earl of Castleton wasn't something Arthur Brynnwood wanted. But after he learned of his great-uncle's passing, the responsibility of running such a vast estate was thrust on Arthur's shoulders. When he arrives at the estate and sees the mismanagement of the properties he loses his temper and raises the rent on the tenants of a small cottage on his land. Feisty Matilda Matthews comes to him the next day, pleading for leniency for herself and her ailing aunt who live in the cottage for free. Too used to the wiles of women, Arthur remains unmoved by her words and won't reconsider. The next thing he knows, he's choking on a snowball thrown at his face and Matilda is marching away, back straight and head held proudly high. Once again, his temper explodes. He grabs her and wrestles the shrieking, kicking woman to a bedchamber and locks her in until he decides what to do with her. He's intrigued and reluctantly impressed by Matilda's show of spirit. She's not the usual, simpering, coy type of women who all but worship at his feet in London. And her beauty . . . he feels an unexpected lust when he imagines her long, russet hair and a gaze that begs for him to kiss her. Deciding it's been too long since he's had a mistress, he knows exactly how to solve the problem of Matilda: he'll allow her free use of the cottage she lives in for the rest of her life in exchange for being his mistress this Christmas season
