Merry, Merry Mischief — Valerie King

CHRISTMAS BELLS...

Although she didn't catch sight of him during her first, second or even third London seasons, Merry Fairfield is determined to catch the irresistible but elusive Lord rayneworth -- hero of her girlhood dreams. That's why she's playing a role in a daring and delightful midnight escapade. But when Merry "pinches" Rayneworth's purse, HE steals a kiss! Suddenly the snowy night is all asparkle... until Merry discovers the awful truth....

OR WEDDING BELLS?...

As guardian of his five younger brothers and sisters, the once-carefree Rayneworth has agreed to wed the dour, impossibly dull Honoria Youlgreave -- on Christmas Day! His magnificent country manor is dreary; his siblings are desperate. What they need is someone to help deck the halls, pass the sugar plums, and give a glum lord a very "Merry" Christmas... with the only woman worthy of his secretly yearning heart!
