Escape into the warmth of the Victorian holiday season, replete with gingerbread, Christmas trees, and a meddling sister who falls into unexpected love in this new tale from USA Today bestselling author Anthea Lawson.

Lady Viola Harrington fancies herself a successful matchmaker. Now that she's succeeded in getting her elder brother wed, she turns her sights on her younger one, and a Christmas ball with several eligible young ladies in attendance will be just the thing to push him over the edge to matrimony.

She has no intention of inviting her handsome neighbor, however, who caught her in a rather compromised state of attire earlier in the year. And she certainly isn't planning to end up making a match of her own...

Yet the holidays conspire to bring unexpected gifts to Yorkshire - and true love is the most surprising of all.
