A Christmas affair to remember / Mia Vincy

Warm lessons in love on cold winter nights... Isaac DeWitt -- former sailor, respected investigator, and notorious flirt -- wants a wife, and where better to find one than the winter house party at Longhope Abbey? But for all his rakish charm, Isaac doesn't even know how to kiss a woman, let alone what to do with her in the marriage bed. Sylvia Ray -- impoverished widow, expert distiller, and safely betrothed -- means to enjoy every minute at the house party before she settles into a dreary but secure marriage. She's too old to believe in exciting futures, but she's too young to bury herself in the country just yet. When Sylvia discovers Isaac's dilemma, she shocks them both with a proposition: She'll give him experience if he'll give her excitement, during a winter they'll never forget. Warm, touching, and fun, this short historical romance tells the story of a young widow and younger man who start a holiday affair but end up with so much more.
