Synopsis
Charismatic heroes who are determined to remain single meet their captivating matches—with irresistible results—in USA Today bestselling author Ella Quinn's delightfully romantic and thrillingly sexy Regency-set Marriage Game series. Will appeal to fans of historical romance and readers of Sabrina Jeffries, Eloisa James, and Tessa Dare. Ella Quinn's charming, clever bachelors are happily single—and aspire to stay that way. But one by one, they discover that love, like the spirit of Christmas, is hard to resist . . . To mend his jilted heart, Lucian, Earl of Devon, has been on an extended tour of Europe. But now he's returned to England—newly determined to remain unmarried. Devon accepts his friend Lord Exeter's invitation to a holiday house party only after being assured the other guests are exclusively couples and children. Yet it seems Exeter forgot to mention Miss Althea Rutherford. She is eligible, exasperatingly likable, and worse, appears to be totally uninterested in Devon—with one exception . . . Notoriously difficult to please, Althea has been out for two years, met no one she can envision spending her life with, and is now sick of would-be suitors. In lieu of a third season, she is determined to tour the Continent—a subject Devon is enthused to discuss with her. Devon's fascinating stories of Europe only strengthen Althea's resolve to remain unattached—and weaken his own . . . Devon thought he was finished with traveling, but the idea of making the journey with the intriguing Althea won't leave his mind. The challenge is to convince her that he'd be a much more enjoyable companion than a chaperone—perhaps for many Christmases to come . . .
My Review
This was a great novella. I really enjoyed reading this quick read. It is part of a series but it worked so well as a standalone. It was so heartwarming and such a wonderful historical romance novel. It really drew me in and I was easily hooked reading it In one sitting. The story line was beautiful and full of great atmosphere. It made me feel like I was watching a movie rather than reading the book. The characters were well developed for such a short book. I really fell in love with them and it felt so realistic. I recommend this book if you love historic romance novels especially those Christmas ones to get you in the mood on the run up to Christmas.
So much praise goes out to the author and publishers for creating such a wonderful short story. This book felt like a nice warm hug. It really made me smile which is just what I needed right now.
