The Christmas Marquess

The newly-minted Marquess of Hadlow thought the campaign against Napoleon was risky, but nothing could prepare him for the onslaught of debutantes arriving at his door, with marriage on their minds. Completely unprepared for this dangerous new mission of finding a well-dowried bride, he trades places with his family’s loyal retainer. That way, he’ll be able to safely observe the guests from a distance. It’s the perfect plan. Heiress Bertha Collingwood is on a campaign of her own. Thrilled to be attending her first house party, she seeks the butler’s advice for ways to earn the Marquess’s favour. The trouble is, the butler is so tempting, Bertha’s having trouble keeping her eyes on the prize.
