Publisher Description
". . . my favorite rogue story, I go back to it often. . . . Beverley has managed to bring romance, mystery and intrigue . . . just fun! ~An Actual Reader
Leander, Lord Charrington has a problem. Raised to be a charming diplomat, women fall in love with him.
He, however, seeks a marriage of convenience with a sensible woman with whom he can live on honest terms.
The impoverished widow, Judith Rossiter, Angel Bride of poet Sebastian Rossiter, seems ideal. Still dressing in black, she remains devoted to her dead husband, and she has children to provide for.
Judith Rossiter thanks heaven for the earl's offered escape from disaster. Though her story is not what the earl believes, the terms of his agreement—to not fall in love with him—seem simple enough. Or so she believes on her wedding day . . . .

Christmas Angel
What a delightful story of the power of love-----all things are possible with God and the angels.....April H, Jacksonville FL
Do not waste your time
Her heroine is petulant and peevish instead of passionate. The book is not a romance, it is a story about a mother and her two brats- one all brat and one brat adjacent. I noticed in another story I read by the author that she spends very little time with dialogue or developing a relationship between the couple, but focuses her energy on the relationship between the heroine and someone/something else. In the last book that I read by the author, the focus was mainly on the dog, and in this one, it was the children. The sex scenes are as tepid as last week’s oolong. The couple spend a lot of time have internal monologues, but very little in the way of dialogue. When they “fall in love”, it leaves the reader confused because the efforts were one sided, and the recipient peevish and postulating. Save your money.
