Catherine Powell, the Dowager Duchess of Ashford, finally has the chance to enjoy the Christmas holiday with her family. All of her sons have been returned to her, long with their lovely new wives and children. Even some long-time family friends will be joining the festivities. Unfortunately a thief had found something that could ruin her and her holiday. She must turn to the only person she can think of for help, the man she had loved and left her a long time ago.

Captain Abraham Marks had given up on love when he lost the women of his dreams as a young man. He had left her so that she could marry better and he managed to make his way up in the world. Fate had allowed him to rescue her son and return him to her, but now she needed another rescue. As the two of them go looking for the fiend trying to blackmail her and getting caught in the snowstorm, will they be able to forgive the past and find love again? Could it be the true Christmas miracle?
