Publisher Description
Holidays, relatives, pressure to marry—sometimes it is all too much. Is it any wonder a woman may need to escape? The heroines in this collection of stories aren't afraid to take matters into their own hands when they've had enough.
The Ultimate Escape, by Susana Ellis - On the eve of her wedding, Julia needs to take a moment to consider what she is doing, and where better than 100 years in the past? Unfortunately, Oliver finds a way to chase her through time.
Under the Mistletoe, by Sherry Ewing - Margaret Templeton will settle for Captain Morledge's hand in marriage, until she sees the man she once loved at her second-best bridegroom's Christmas party.
Gingerbread Bride, by Jude Knight - Travelling with her father's fleet has not prepared Mary Pritchard for London. When she strikes out on her own, she finds adventure, trouble, and her girlhood hero, riding once more to her rescue.
A Dangerous Nativity, by Caroline Warfield - With Christmas coming, can the Earl of Chadbourn repair his widowed sister's damaged estate, and far more damaged family? Dare he hope for love in the bargain?
These stories are republished here at 20% of the cost of collecting them all from each individual author.
Two bonus short stories round out the collection.
Customer Reviews
Delightfully charming
I read Gingerbread Bride by Jude Knight
I don't usually care for Novellas ( I hate for them to end ) but Jude Knight is a masterful storyteller and there's no valet is no exception. Her characters are delightful and genuine. In this story Mary is intelligent and strong, our hero Rick is sweet and kind. He's spent a lifetime rescuing Mary from one folly after the other. When they grew older duty called him away but fate put Mary in his path once more. This is such a sweet love story with lots of sweet humor and beautifully written. Thank you so much Jude for such a heartwarming, charming story.
Thank you Jude for always writing such a delightful tales.
Good set of books
Love a good historical book and in this set you get several! Holidays always add an unexpected twist and these books are no exception. Lots of twists and turns plus some drama thrown in. Wonderful characters with interesting dialogue and good interaction in each book. Good reads.
