His daughter, Lady Audrey, has just turned eighteen, and it is time for her to be introduced into society. It is Audrey's first, best, and potentially only chance of securing a husband. Especially seeing as there are rumours that the Marchwood money is running dry.
But headstrong Lady Audrey is not sure she wants a husband. Ever since her mother died she has been left to her own devices. Though she is very close to her father, it was often the servants she turned to for companionship, particularly Thomas, who, five years older than her, was always the person she depended on for conversation. She is not ready to leave everything she knows, and the thought of abandoning her father breaks her heart.
She is determined that only someone truly special will take her away from her home. But with the ball centred around a masquerade theme, everyone is in disguise. And a handsome stranger threatens to steal Audrey's heart. Could he hold the key to her heart? And when she unmasks him will it be a good, or bad, Christmas Surprise?'A Christmas Surprise' is a festive regency romance novella.
