|  | | Holiday in the Heart These are short stories with a Christmas Theme. My contribution is called Christmas Masquerade.
| |  | | No Regrets Caroline Torrington is large, and she wears glasses. Not the sort of woman to attract the attention of London's most notorious rake unless he is after her fortune. Lucas, Lord Foxhaven, noted for his wild and reckless behavior, is once again in dispute with his father over his financial excesses. Only his childhood friend Caro can help him out of his predicament and perhaps find a way to his heart.
| |  | | Pistols At Dawn A duel at dawn leaves Victoria Torrington under obligation to one of London's foremost rakes, Simon St. John, Earl of Travis. Together they face an enemy armed with the secrets of Simon's past.
“Are you ready, gentlemen?”
Simon (Satan) St. John, seventh Earl of Travis, nodded. Simon sensed a similar movement from Yelverton at his back. The dueling pistol felt comfortably familiar through the thin kid-leather of his glove. Simon eased his grip.
A damn duel over what amounted to little more than a handful of guineas and a property in Kent already mortgaged to the hilt. Vowels left strewn on a battered gaming table in one of London’s grimy hells and none of it worth a man’s life at twenty paces.
Distant trees loomed from the fog like harbingers of death, gallows | |  | | The Lady Flees Her Lord Running from a husband who abuses her because she is unfashionably tall and big and has failed to produce an heir, Lucinda, Lady Denbigh, rescues a street urchin and poses as a widow with a small daughter.
