Description
A delightfully charming, wickedly sexy Regency-set Christmas romance novella from New York Times bestselling author Amelia Grey!
The Marquis of Wythebury, is expecting an ordinary Christmastide at Hurst—until he is set upon by a beautiful miss who takes him to task for not allowing his young nephews to play outside. In his mind, a five and seven year old needn’t get chilled in the snow; better to plop them in front of the fire with a book. Few people have ever been brave enough to challenge him over anything, much less the rearing of his wards. The cheeky Miss Prim has no such compunction. No matter how fetching he finds her, he can’t give in to his attraction…for she is the sister of his best friend.
Growing up the middle child of five rambunctious girls, Lillian Prim doesn’t understand why two young boys visiting Hurst don’t know how to play until she meets their dashing guardian. The Marquis of Wythebury is commanding and intensely serious-minded. To her surprise, she’s captivated by him. It’s all she can do not to give into her feminine fantasies about her kissing him. Lillian has no intention of falling in love with the Marquis, but she will create Christmastide mischief and teach the boys and the handsome Marquis how to play, in Mistletoe, Mischief, and the Marquis.
Reviews
Mistletoe, Mischief and the Marquis
5By celticmaggieI really like reading Amelia's books. I grab every one I can find. She writes good story lines and gives us some real characters. This story is set just before Christmas. Seth is still getting over the deaths of his sister and her husband. Spoiler. He now has the care of his two nephews, Fallon and Heron. Spoiler. He comes across Lillian playing with the boys outside in the snow. Seth blows up and yells at her because they were outside. He finds himself falling for her but while she wants him she won't marry a man who is a stiff. He is Power and gets what he wants. He learns a hard lesson. I like the short read here. I would recommend this book to read. Check it out. Don't let it get away! I have volunteered to read and review this book.
