Winter Fire A classic Christmas story back for a new season. New York Times bestselling author Jo Beverley returns to the Georgian period and the irresistible Malloren clan in this sumptuous historical novel of sizzling tension, powerful attraction, a false and forced engagement—and the lavish use of mistletoe and rather well-spiked eggnog. Through no fault of her own, Genova Smith is in the precarious position of accompanying the Marquess of Ashart to the home of Lord Rothgar, his cousin and mortal enemy. Even more distressing, she and the infuriating rake have been caught in a passionate kiss, forcing her into the dangerous situation of pretending to be in love with the one man capable of stealing her heart... Caught in an unwanted betrothal, Lord Ashart plays the game to protect a lady’s virtue while pursuing darker purposes of his own. To survive, he must confront his cousin and his past, but the passion that ignites between him and Genova threatens everything. With her, he realizes he’s finally met his match—and if he isn't careful, their staged engagement may turn into something deliciously real...
