Mistletoe Masquerade: A Ridlington Christmas Novella
Sahara Kelly - 2017
But then again, he wasn’t sure if butlers were inappropriately touched by titled guests that often. He sighed. Being a butler was turning out to be quite a bit more complicated than he’d anticipated... Paul DeVoreaux, the Inchworthy hunting box, near Pineneedle Drift, December 1814 They’re not butler or housekeeper; in fact, they’re not servants at all. Yet that is the pretense they must observe if their real identities and their whereabouts are to remain a secret. For Paul DeVoreaux and Harriet Selkirk, fleeing London and the Ton is the best and safest idea at this particular time in their lives. A small hunting box in December is an even better one. Or so they think. Thrust into the roles for which they are ill-prepared, Paul becomes a surprisingly effective butler, and Harriet assumes the role of housekeeper to the best of her ability. The arriving house party seems to find nothing amiss, and the seasonal revelries begin. Unfortunately, the guests are nothing if not frisky, and Paul and Harriet find themselves forced into yet another masquerade. But this one isn’t quite as simple as donning a lace cap, or answering the front door… A Ridlington Christmas Novella – A stand-alone holiday romance featuring characters introduced in the “Six Pearls of Baron Ridlington” series by Sahara Kelly.

It should have been the most disastrous night of her life. It certainly turned her life upside down. Because no matter how one looks at it, a nice girl never falls in love with a bastard...
Dear reader - I was not going to do an Audrey book. Indeed, I wasn't going to do a Marcus one either, but a lot of people were curious about to know what happened to him after he returned to England. Actually, Millie was the only other Hathaway I had planned to follow up with (and yes, her story is in the making) but I felt I couldn't let poor Audrey miss out completely so I decided on a novella that ended up rather longer than intended. In fact, this is either a long novella or a short book. Stayed tuned for That Hathaway Girl, Millie's story...
