One Wicked Christmas

Lady Cristiana Kendal craved passion, a fleeting escape from her lonely world-until one stolen night with the irresistible Adam Brighton changed everything. She now harbors a secret she vows to protect at all costs: a daughter born of that passionate encounter, a child Adam must never know exists. But when the formidable Duke of Danby summons Adam to Yorkshire for the Christmastide holiday, Cristiana's carefully guarded world is shattered. As the snow falls gently outside her doorstep, Adam arrives uninvited, rekindling the fire between them with every glance, every whispered word.
Yet beneath his charming smile lies a man who once walked away, a rogue she cannot trust with her heart-or her daughter's future. Now, Cristiana faces an impossible choice: surrender to the man who ignites her deepest desires, or protect the innocent life that means more to her than her own. As old passions reignite and hidden truths come to light, Cristiana must decide-will she risk everything for a second chance at love, or will she sacrifice her heart to keep her daughter safe? In a season of miracles, can Cristiana find the courage to open her heart once more, or will the ghosts of her past destroy any hope for their future?
