Description

Miss Rosamund Hale has spent too long letting scandal define her.

When winter carries her to Ravensmere Hall, she is determined to make herself useful, reclaim her dignity, and bring a little Christmas warmth to the Duke of Ravensmere's cold and orderly estate. But Ravensmere is no simple refuge. Its master, Lucian Fairfax, is guarded, grieving, and far too accustomed to keeping the world at a careful distance.

Lucian has no patience for disruption, sentiment, or the sharp-witted woman who sees too much. Yet Rosamund's courage unsettles him, her kindness challenges him, and her presence begins to thaw a heart he thought safely buried beneath duty.

As snow closes around the Hall and Christmas traditions draw tenants, guests, and secrets into the candlelight, Rosamund and Lucian's wary alliance turns into something far more dangerous: desire, trust, and hope. But when an old threat tries to turn Rosamund's past into a weapon, Lucian must choose whether to preserve the life he has carefully controlled—or risk everything for the woman who has made it worth living.

Warm, emotional, and filled with tender holiday romance, The Duke's Mistletoe Bargain is a snowbound Regency love story about scandal, healing, found family, and the kind of love that turns a lonely house into a home.
