Welcome to a Regency Christmas like no other . . . If you loved Bridgerton, this witty, dazzling romance is for you!

During their annual Christmas pilgrimage to Scotland to visit their aged uncle in his decrepit castle, the Comte de Rocheforte and his cousin, Earl of Oakley, are presented with rather . . . unique gifts. Their Uncle is determined that his ancient (if not so honorable) birthright be secured before he dies and since neither nephew seemed in enough of a hurry to wed, the old reprobate has taken matters into his own hands . . . He’s raided an English lord’s Christmas party and kidnapped four lovely would-be brides for his heirs to choose from – and one very angry duke!

All in all, it’s a party/kidnapping not to be missed, by bestselling Historical romance authors Eloisa James, Connie Brockway and Julia Quinn, author of Bridgerton

Three of the brightest stars of Regency romance invite you to a party at the country home of the Honourable Marquess of Finchley . . . If you loved Bridgerton, this is a party you won't want to miss!

Hugh Dunne, the Earl of Briarly, needs a wife - so his sister hands him a list of the very best young ladies on the market. And then, because he refuses to tear himself away from the stables where he trains Arabian racehorses, she invites all those ladies to a house party, along with some other bachelors, of course.

So who will Hugh choose? The Botticelli-esque, enchanting Gwendolyn? The outspoken, delightful Katherine? If he doesn't work fast, he'll lose those ladies to his closest friends, and then where will he look for a wife? Perhaps, just perhaps, toward a lady who's not on a market at all, and would require a great deal of persuading . . .

Step into the glittering world of Regency and prepare to have your hearts warmed by Julia Quinn, Eloisa James and Connie Brockway . . .

At the behest of three of the most talented historical romance authors writing today, you are cordially invited to a ball. No, a party. No . . . a kidnapping.

Taran Ferguson, laird of his clan, is determined that his ancient (if not so honorable) birthright be secured before he dies. When both his nephews refuse to wed, the old reprobate takes matters into his own hands: he raids a ball and makes off with four likely brides . . .

Miss Marilla Chisholm--the bonniest lass in Scotland, and an heiress to boot.

Miss Fiona Chisholm--her older sister, Another Fine Choice (but for that tiny stain on her reputation)

Lady Cecily Tarleton--true, she's an English beauty, but very, very rich.

Miss Catriona Burns--without name OR fortune, clearly someone made a mistake.

Oh, yes. And one very irate duke.

Now, while they wait out a fierce Highland storm in a ruin of a castle, Taran's "guests" are running from Cupid's arrows . . . and from Taran, who is determined to find the lady most willing to love a Scottish lord.
