The best gifts arrive in the most unexpected packages in this charming holiday Regency romance from RITA Award-winning author Barbara Metzger. Although she was born into the ancien regime , Juneclaire... This description may be from another edition of this product.
You can never go wrong with a Metzger novel. The characters are always engaging and charming. And there are such funny and endearing moments in all of them. Juneclaire has had a rather dreary upbringing as an orphan (poor relation) in a relative's home. But one Christmas she must escape - and she does -- right into the arms of rake. Compromised by spending an innocent night with him in the stable where they are trapped, the Earl of St. Cloud honorably asks for her hand. But Juneclaire does not want to trap him into marriage and "Merry" St. Cloud spends the rest of the Christmas season trying to find this wayward waif that he has fallen madly in love with (as she has with him). Other amusing situations occur to make this a wonderful holiday romp. Light, fun reading!
An awesome Christmas romp!
