Christmas At Brentwood Abbey
(2016)A collection of stories by Nadine Millard, Kay Springsteen and Kristin Vayden
Christmas at Brentwood Abbey will be anything but ordinary...
Stealing the Earl
By Kristin Vayden
Edward Meyrick, Earl of Brentwood has enough to deal with this Christmas, the last thing he needs is the terrifyingly familiar coach that pulls into his country estate, seeking refuge from the snowstorm.
His long lost brother is returning from America any day, his sister is growing more frigid in temperment by the day and his mother has invited scads of unattached ladies to attend the ball to celebrate his brother's arrival... all with the twinkle in her eye that says Edwards the matrimonial target.
Yet all these pale in comparison to the fact that his ex-bethroded's family just arrived - and they aren't going anywhere. With a heart as cold as the snow outside, he has every intention on kicking them out into the freezing weather - but he finds an unexpected ally, his almost sister in law.
And suddenly, being snowed in isn't all that bothersom after all...
To Thaw her Heart
By Nadine Millard
Victoria Meyrick, sister of the Earl of Brentwood has long since been considered an ice queen by the ton.
Nobody knows of the tragic circumstances that forced Victoria to close herself off from the world.
Nobody has ever tried to find out..
Lord Marcus Salford is captivated by the cool, elusive Lady Victoria from the first moment he sees her.
He suspects that a warm and passionate woman hides beneath the icy surface that Victoria presents to the world.
Will Victoria learn to open herself up to love, after all this time alone?
And will Marcus manage to thaw her heart?
The Maid's Christmas Miracle
Kay Springsteen
Like any young woman, Carol Endicott has dreams. Only instead of marrying and having a family, and living as the lady on a fine estate, her dreams involve one day being the head cook on a fine estate. But for now, she's just a kitchen maid.
Thomas Beckett is smitten with the kitchen maid, Carol. He is eager to marry her and start a life with her. But he's a stable hand and she's a maid, and servants seldom found the opportunity to marry. It would take a miracle for them to find their way into a life together.
But Christmas is a season for miracles and the arrival of a pair of strangers one Christmas Eve brings new hope. Will they go back to their mundane lives after the holidays? Or will a miracle in a stable change their lives forever?
