Synopsis

It's the Christmas season, and the Playful Brides series embraces holiday cheer, and forbidden love, with a dash of mystery! The aristocrats in Regency London are shaken by a series of crimes plaguing them during the holiday season. The chill in the air isn't just from the first hints of snow, and the Christmas spirit hasn't hit society. Daffin Oakleaf, a Bow Street Runner, one of London's first official police force, is on the case, but realizes he needs some assistance questioning members of London high society to solve the crimes. When he enlists help from the granddaughter of a duke, the lovely Lady Regina, sparks soon burn between them, despite their class differences. But could a romance between them ever work? This next Playful Brides installment from Valerie Bowman is sweet, heartwarming, and filled with exciting action and sweeping romance that she does best!
