The Kissing Bough

Joan Smith

A delightful regency romance from the author of THE SAVAGE LORD GRIFFIN Jane Ramsay was thrilled to receive an invitation to spend a country Christmas with Nicholas, heir to Lord Goderich, who was - by his own proclamation - ready to settle down at last. Yet her hopes of a proposal fall flat - the house party was being held in honour of his angelic bride-to-be. But since it is high time for Jane to choose a husband and Nick's friend Pelham seems as good as any, she proceeds to accept his attentions. But if the jealousy in Nick's eyes wasn't proof enough of his hidden affection for her, then surely his embrace under the kissing bough will upset everyone's best laid plans.
