Mary Jo Putney, Jo Beverley, Joanna Bourne, Patricia Rice, Nicola Cornick, Cara Elliott, Anne Gracie, Susan King

eBook - 2016

"Eight romance authors walk into a Regency-era ballroom and wreak fabulous, shimmering holiday mischief all over the place."—Publishers WeeklyChristmas 1815. Upstairs and downstairs, Holbourne Abbey is abuzz with preparations for a grand ball to celebrate the year's most festive—and romantic—holiday. For at the top of each guest's wish list is a last chance to find true love before the New Year . . . "The tales are rather sentimental, a box of chocolates with sweet, soft centers inside a dark covering, a pleasant confection for the holiday season. My personal favorites are Anne Gracie's 'Mistletoe Kisses,' a charming variant on the Cinderella story, and Susan King's 'A Scottish Carol,...' whose lovers must struggle to find healing for the wounds of self-doubt and past failures; but there is ample variety here for other tastes. Recommended for lovers of Regency romances."—Historical Novel Society
