As a devoted disciple of Meredith Duran, I went into this second-chance romance fully expecting our usual heartache and angst, only to discover that it's... hilarious?! This was delightfully funny with an original premise and a tight Christmas-time timeline, and I thoroughly enjoyed every second. The crux of our conflict is miscommunication, but the eventual reckoning is so beautifully done that I didn't mind waiting for it. I would recommend this Christmas novella to any historical romance reader, but Meredith Duran readers in particular shouldn't miss it.
