Christmas Wishes

Great Adventure. Juneclaire has a comic air and St. Cloud has just enough seriousness to straighten her out, or so one might think. Read the book if you haven't already. The fun-loving Juneclaire with Pansy at her side will make you laugh, and St. Cloud will make your heart flutter in the way that only a man on page can. Barbara Metzger is a true artisit in her own right. - Kitt H., aspiring to be like her. Merry Christmas, Merry! Summary: Though granddaughter to one of the ancien regime, Juneclaire Beaumont now lives as a poor relation - until a crisis sends her packing. But the road to London is not easy, and she must take shelter in a stable with a handsome, scowling stranger, who is also in a predicament. He could take advantage of the situation, but he behaves as a gen- tleman. The ton, however, would never believe the rakish Earl of St. Cloud could act the nobleman for a moment, let alone a whole night. But he will prove them wrong: After Juneclaire slips out of town, the earl will spend the twelve days of Christmas on a neck-or-nothing ride to find her... Pretty romantic, huh? "(Metzger writes) Regency romance at its finest and funniest." - Publishers Weekly "Barbara Metzger's voice is always fresh! With wit and inimitable style, she dares to go beyond the cliche to create uniquely Metzger stories." - The Literary Times Read another Metzger novel: Father Christmas, A Perfect Gentleman, etc. Good Luck!

Great cozy read. Very well written. Loved the h/h, loved the Christmas theme. Highly recommend!
