Kiss Me at Christmas [Mass Market Paperback] Bowman, Valerie

Lucy Upton has a list — a very specific list of qualities her future husband must possess. Lord Julian Locke, rakish younger brother of the Duke of Claringdon, checks precisely zero boxes. He's charming, reckless, and entirely too good at making her forget her carefully laid plans. But when a Christmas house party throws them together, Lucy discovers that sometimes the wrong man on paper is exactly right in person. Valerie Bowman delivers a Regency romp with sharp banter, simmering chemistry, and all the festive trappings — mistletoe, snowy estates, and a heroine who learns that love doesn't follow a checklist. For fans of cozy historical romance with a holiday twist, this is the seasonal escape you didn't know you needed.
