Holiday House Parties: Two Tales

Synopsis

Unlikely lovers find passion under the Christmas mistletoe in this duet of Regency tales from an award-winning romance author. In &“The Girl with Airs,&” Lord Dunvegan—Laird Geordie to his friends—attempts to persuade bluestocking Caroline Woolcott to give his besotted, tongue-tied friend Sir Archibald Halford a chance to win her hand in marriage. A Scotsman banished to England to cultivate a more genteel manner, Geordie has yet to meet a female who tempts him to settle down. It certainly isn&’t the headstrong lass who wants nothing to do with Archie—or Geordie. But then Geordie&’s father decides the standoffish Caroline would make an ideal bride for his wayward son, and a sizzling kiss in the doorway of a grand Lancashire estate turns two warring hearts to love . . . In &“A Sneeze on Tuesday,&” Elinor Selby succumbs to the worst cold she&’s ever known five days before Christmas, and her entire future takes a catastrophic turn. After an absence of five years, Elinor&’s betrothed, Julian Henshaw, Lord Lovebourne, is due home any day. Were it not for her quick-thinking, curmudgeonly neighbor, Miles Endicott, on whom she&’s relied since childhood, she might not be able to cope with the momentous reunion. But then an unexpected series of events forces Elinor and Miles to take part in a scandalous deception that will ignite a firestorm of longing and love. Elizabeth Mansfield&’s pair of irresistible holiday romances features men and women who discover love they didn&’t know they were missing.
