Amid mistletoe and missing jewels, a wealthy widow and a sexy sleuth play a game of cat and mouse.

A Yuletide gathering at Forde Hall is bursting with mince pies, mulled wine, merriment, and . . . mischief! Prinny's trusted man, Lord Miles Denbigh, is tasked with discovering the identity of a wily thief who has been plaguing the ton's house parties and stealing their jewels.

Comely widow Lady Sarah Worthington has enjoyed Denbigh's company before. However, much as she likes the viscount, she had not expected to spend Twelvetide in his company, not when she has a secret mission, and certainly not when he suspects she's up to something.

Just because he's right, doesn't mean she has to like it!
