Lady Jennet Gordon has led a charmed life until her first Season.

Two years later, secluded on their Northumberland estate, a distant cousin is found to assume the title. Jenny fears that the heir—known in the shipping industry as the Hangman—will evict her and her mother from their home. Surely, he would not throw them out at Christmastide?

A driven man with a fierce reputation…

Barnabus Gordon is the grandson of a pirate and the son of a privateer. His grandfather, the younger son of a titled family, refused to accept the traditional careers offered him and took to the sea. When Barnabus’s father is killed early in the war, he vows to legitimize the family business. Using the cutthroat lessons learned in his childhood from two generations of rebellious Gordons, he buys out shipowners in financial distress and accrues his own fleet. When Barnabus learns he is the new Earl of Townsen, a title that is debt-ridden and comes with two penniless females.

Until the Town lady and seafaring brute find themselves sixes and sevens under a mistletoe. One kiss ignites a Yule log of passion and holiday magic that refuses to be extinguished.

Lady Annette Page is twenty-four and ready to climb onto the shelf. Her first Season was a disaster after a duke’s son pinched her by the punchbowl, and she walloped him in the nose. And broke it.

Wilkinson is surprised the other gentlemen view her as a quiet, awkward female. The viscount, seeing a striking, intelligent woman with a dry wit only he seems to appreciate, comes to her rescue.

When the two become allies, their partnership soon goes beyond friendship. But will Lady Annette’s age and the viscount’s interfering daughter keep them from a happy ending under the mistletoe?
