Sabrina Jefferies
Thanks to a carriage accident, shy Elinor Bancroft, the richest heiress in North England, ends up stranded at Lord Thorncliff’s manor on her way home for Christmas, along with her wounded aunt, three young and boisterous cousins, and their friend, Charlie Dickens. Tired of being courted only for her fortune, she is ready to forego the marriage mart entirely. And their grumpy host Martin Thorncliff, otherwise known as the Black Baron, only strengthens that decision.
Lord Thorncliff is none too happy to play host to four children, their mother, and a famous heiress. Bad enough that it’s Christmas, his least favorite time of year. He would rather hide in his barn doing experiments than be tortured by the allure of a sweet young woman who makes him want to forget he’s a pariah in good society. Fortunately, neither Elinor nor Martin can hold firm against the sizzling attraction that engulfs them whenever they come near each other, and they soon discovner that Christmas takes on a whole new meaning when you share it with one you love.
