An American woman has one holiday wish, a lifetime of love, in this captivating Regency romance from the author of Their Inconvenient Yuletide Wedding.

Abandoned by her husband, and society because her father was a slave, Honora Blake will never rely on anyone again. Until dashing Lord Lovell breaks the news that she is a widow—and penniless—and insists she spend Christmas with him and his pregnant ward. Beneath the mistletoe, passion flares between Honora and Isaac. Then childbirth places his ward's life in jeopardy, and these strangers suddenly face marriage to protect the baby.
