At times, believing is more important than seeing in matters of love and snowflakes.
It’s Christmastide 1817 and Miss Christiana Smythe, daughter of a squire, is not looking forward to the social obligations of the season. Wanting nothing more than to care for the area’s sick and ailing animal population, doing the rounds in glittering ballrooms festooned with holiday finery makes her lightheaded. Yet it’s a necessity to realizing the dream of love.
Evan Tennant, Earl of Stanton’s priorities are to avoid dancing with women he doesn’t know as well as to evade match-making mamas. He’d much rather spend his time charting the stars in the hopes of catching a meteor shower, yet he has responsibilities to his title and his mother insists he find an eligible lady soon. Except he doesn’t believe in romance or the magic of Christmastide.
Though she’s a confirmed wallflower, Christiana’s knack for helping animals throws her into the earl’s path when his beloved beagle falls ill. Attraction as hot and bright as a comet’s tail takes them both by surprise. Through a series of odd events, they’re thrown together, and when kisses and dances edge them closer to love, they’ll both need a little push before they believe what fate knew all along.

A lady’s companion with no prospects. A duke who has turned his back on romance. A wild snowstorm that leaves them both stranded. It’ll be a holiday neither of them will forget.
Resigning herself to becoming a companion to an elderly peeress is Miss Hope Marie Atwater’s last chance for a decent life. Though she’s unwanted, undesired, and unloved at five and twenty, being on the shelf hasn’t completely stolen her spirit. Her one wish at Christmastide is to stumble upon a man who will look past her drab life’s circumstances to the spirited woman beneath, but that would take a miracle.
Christmastide only brings maudlin memories he’d rather forget to Brook Gerard Clevenger, Duke of Denton. He wants to bury himself at his country estate, for the thought of merrymaking reminds him of all he’s lost. A widower of three years, he’s not looking for another romance; one was enough, and the pain will last a lifetime despite the fact he might welcome companionship or the chance for a stolen kiss.
Traveling respectively through north Derbyshire--one coming, one going--misfortune is their lot. A fierce winter storm blows in and strands them at a posting inn where the situation isn’t ideal. During a meeting in the courtyard, a common denominator takes them by surprise. As Christmastide nears, the class divide disappears, and the desire simmering between them explodes into something undeniably heated and intense. With three nights until Christmas, the wonder of romance might just be the gift they both need.

Raised like a country mouse on the vast Montcliffe Abbey estate, Lady Wilhelmina Rumsford had never set foot in London until her father, Viscount Rumsford, decided she simply had to have a Season. It matters little to him that everyone in the ton knows his beloved daughter is the natural child of his footman. Left-handed Mina doesn’t know for certain the kindly footman who taught her how to lace up her boots is her real father. She can’t admit a truth that would hurt that much. And besides, she has her hands full with the Duke of Montfort’s attempts to keep her “out of trouble.”
Julian Jameson, Duke of Montfort, grew up best of friends with Mina's older brothers. They went to school together, caroused together, and tried to keep Mina out of trouble. That is, Julian tried to keep Mina out of trouble. A difficult task once she went to London where he had to make her understand which suitors to welcome and which ones to push away. Unfortunately, his list of "no's" far outweighed the "yes's," so she rejected all the marriage offers that came her way during her first and only Season.
Despite Julian's best laid plans, his rakish friend, the Earl of Westfalia, becomes infatuated with Mina during a fateful snowbound sojourn at a country inn on their way to a Christmas House Party. Julian must keep her away from this most definite of “no’s”. The handsome earl’s attentions make Mina long for a love that sees beyond the circumstances of her parentage. However, she finally has to admit the real reason she rejected all those marriage offers. Her own heart was waiting for the offer she hoped would come, but never did.
Now, it’s up to the guardian angels below stairs to make certain Mina gets her happily ever after...

A reforming flirt meets her heart’s match when she models for an enigmatic sculptor.
The sculptor. Stone carver Gryffyn Kimbrell aspires to create more than headstones and hedges, so when he learns of a competition in nearby Truro, he leaps at the opportunity. And to his surprise, Miss Keren Moon provides much needed inspiration.
While the mayor’s daughter has not been particularly selective with her flirtations, he’s never been on the receiving end. But her disregard doesn’t concern him; with his family’s secrets firmly guarded, he’s resigned to a bachelor’s life, and all he requires of Miss Moon is permission to sketch her. Nothing more. If only he could get his heart to fall in line.
The flirt. Threatened with separation from her young brother, Miss Keren Moon agrees to her father’s ultimatum to reform her flirtatious ways. Pointing her feet on a straight and narrow path, she resolves to avoid behavior that will cause her father to send her away.
Modeling for sculptor Gryffyn Kimbrell might be on that list, but against her better judgment, she makes a secret bargain with the reserved stone carver: she’ll allow him to draw her if he’ll provide carving lessons for her trouble-prone brother.
When Gryffyn’s masterpiece is revealed and secrets are exposed, will this unexpected couple find their way to love?
