Kitty Wantling never expected to receive two proposals of marriage. One from her old friend, Johnny, was more than enough. Receiving a second proposal from Captain Gerard was a surprise, for she had no idea he admired her.
It seemed a simple problem, until the two letters to her suitors were mixed up and it was Captain Gerard who came courting.
A family Christmas is a novelty to Captain Jonathan Gerard, having spent his adulthood as a soldier. His injuries at Waterloo cost him his career so he is adrift in London when Kitty Wantling crosses his path, chaperoning her younger sister.
Now her father has decreed a two-week trial, thrown together in the crucible of family life to find out if they are suited for matrimony, and if, by some lucky chance, it could lead to love.
This novella was part of the Sweet Christmas Secrets Anthology published for a limited time in 2021 and contains very mild levels of heat.
Content Notes: War wounds, deaths of family members off-page and in the past. Brief non-sexual nudity.
This story is written using British English spelling and conventions.
Genre: Historical Romance
