Recently widowed, Lady Lydia has never forgotten her true love Geoffrey, the duke of Bentley. Except years later, Geoffrey doesn’t resemble the bright young love Lydia remembers.
Indulging in a rakish lifestyle has left Geoffrey, the duke of Bentley, hollow. Now, in his time of need, he turns to Lydia, his one true friend.
Can the duke convince Lydia to try again? Or will past mistakes keep them apart - this time, forever?

Lady Grace Wyatt is content as a wallflower, focusing on scientific pursuits rather than the complications of society matches. But when a handsome, celebrated naturalist returns from abroad, Grace wishes, for once, to be noticed. Her solution: to “build” the perfect man, who will court her publicly and help her catch his eye. Grace’s colleague, anthropologist Sebastian Holloway, is just the blank slate she requires. To further his own research on English society, Sebastian agrees to let Grace transform him from a bespectacled, bookish academic into a dashing - albeit fake - rake.

Mistletoe is beautiful and dangerous, much like the woman from Lord Frederick’s Percy’s past, so when he turns over a new leaf and arranges to marry for his estate, instead of his heart, he never expects the wrong bride to be the right choice. Gracelynn Ferguson never expected to take her elder sister’s place as a Christmas bride, but when she’s thrust into the choice, she will trust in her faithful novels and overactive imagination to help her not only win Frederick’s heart but also to solve the murder mystery of Havensbrook Hall.

He's a brash adventurer, witty, courageous...and Irish! Even worse, her father blames her for their reversal of fortune.

Sweet story, great beginning
I love this story. The characters are rich and likeable. IMHO the best books are when the story and the characters remain with the reader/listener long after the story ends. This is one of those books. Thank you, Christi and Timothy for a lovely listen.
