Merrily Ever After

CHERYL HOLT celebrates the Christmas holidays with another fun journey to the seaside town of Baywick…

SAMANTHA DUNWORTHY is a dreamer and romantic who hopes and plans, but whose dreams never come true. She’d like to marry and have a home of her own someday, but she’s a poor cousin with no dowry or prospects, and her despicable relatives constantly take advantage of her kindly nature.

SEBASTIAN BRAMWELL has lived his life as a pirate and bandit, but to everyone’s surprise, he’s suddenly inherited his family’s earldom, so he’s become Lord Hastings. He’s always been a man of action and adventure, so he’s a bit rough around the edges. Life as an aristocrat in quiet, rural England doesn’t suit him at all.

Over the Christmas holidays, Samantha and Sebastian meet in Baywick. Sparks fly and romance sizzles, but they’re different people from different worlds. Yet Sebastian is a wounded hero any woman would love to save. And Samantha just might be the Christmas gift he’s always needed…
