The earl dangled in mid-air before dropping into her overturned carriage, at which point his winter coat swooped behind him and covered his shapely, muscled legs from her view.
"Oh!" she exclaimed, not because she had lost sight of his well-developed thighs but because her front was nearly touching his front, without any way to put distance between them. Craning her neck, she looked up at him.

On this frigid Christmas eve, everyone should be snug in front of a glowing hearth. But orphaned and impoverished, Lady Patience St. Claire is trapped in her overturned coach, wondering how much lower her luck can fall.

The Earl of Beaumont cannot believe his good fortune. The very female who captured his interest and then spurned him a year earlier is at his mercy. He takes her to his brightly lit manor house, offering hospitality and the possibility of something more.

While old misunderstandings keep them cautious, passion blooms between them. Can a rake convince a lady that the twelve days of Christmas are long enough to fall in love?

Engaging characters, attention to period detail, and passionate romance with a touch of intrigue -- you'll find it all in the stories by USA Today bestselling author Sydney Jane Baily.
