She’s a ray of sunshine. He’s a moody man. Can Christmas rekindle the spark that once fused their hearts?

When Ivy, Countess of Ritchfield, arrives at the earldom’s country estate for one of the chilliest Christmases on record, she discovers she won’t be alone for the holiday.

Ever since his countess began living in London year-round, and with his four children grown and on their own, Robert has struggled with loneliness. Seeking to escape the ghosts of his past, he flees to the earldom’s seat in York on the worst day of winter to spend a fortnight at Ritchfield Park.

When his wife arrives with the same intention, he wonders if their forced proximity will revive what’s become an ambivalent relationship. Despite the winter cold and incessant snow, will they have a second chance at love? The Christmas season may find hearts thawing and second-chance love blooming for The Ivy of an Earl.

A sensual tale of mutual shyness and masterful slyness

When the painfully shy Baron David Engleston receives an invitation to join a friend for a few days of playing cards and dancing at the Soho Club, he accepts. Given the incessant rain falling on all of England, he may as well spend some time in the capital. He can feel glum there just as well as in Kent—at least until the moment a young lady in a yellow gown appears from the room adjacent to his and asks, “Are you my betrothed?”

Miss Marian Copper has come to the Soho Club in the company of her uncle and guardian, the Earl of Penhurst, believing he has arranged a marriage on her behalf. So when she nearly collides with a handsome man at the club, she assumes he's the one, especially when he doesn't hesitate to reply, “Why, yes. Yes I am.”

Without so much as an introduction, these two embark on one of the shortest betrothals possible. Given the earl's ridiculous terms and conditions, can there be a happily ever after in their future? Well, this is the Soho Club.

Note: This story was originally part of the anthology, Summer Secrets of the Soho Club.

While Persephone and Jack renew their acquaintance, Parker returns to the scene of an abduction gone awry. Can switched hats, misidentified crests on coaches, and reports of gossip relating to the notorious ‘Lord JW' provide the clues he needs to sort whodunit? Jack's fate depends on it in The Abduction of an Earl.
