Certain individuals might consider Lady Amelia Pembroke a managing sort of female, but truly, most people would be lost without her help. Why, the latest on-dit is that rakish Viscount Sheffield is canceling the fête of the year because he hasn't time for silly soirees. He doesn't need time—he needs her!
When a flash of lightning destroys the venue for his family's annual Christmas ball, Lord Benedict Sheffield intends to enjoy a relaxing holiday for once. But after twelve days of beguiling Lady Amelia's guerrilla tactics, he's up to his cravat with tinsel . . . and tumbling head over heels in love.
Is twelve days enough time to organize a Christmas Eve Annual Ball?
Viscount’s Christmas Temptation by Erica Ridley will be answering that question within its pages. I was immediately sucked into this beautiful story. We get a good look into the lives of the Regency era lords and ladies.
Lady Amelia Pembroke
Lady Amelia Pembroke is the oldest of the Pembroke siblings by three years. She is very good at managing things but has decided that it is time for her to find a husband. Lady Amelia is close to thirty-years-old. Amelia plans to use Sheffield’s Seventy-Fifth Annual Christmastide Ball as her hunting grounds. However, this won’t be happening unless she personally helps Benedict find a suitable place for it.
Viscount Benedict Sheffield
Viscount Benedict Sheffield wasn’t in line to get a title until ten years ago when it fell onto his lap. Benedict’s life is good. He handles his viscount duties and the evenings are his. That is until Lady Amelia shows up and gets under his skin about helping to get this party underway. He’s just as stubborn as Amelia, and they both make an interesting couple.
Five Stars for the Viscount’s Christmas Temptation
Viscount’s Christmas Temptation by Erica Ridley is a binge-worthy read that you won’t put down. Ms. Ridley does an excellent job of transporting you to the Regency era and sneaking a peek into how the rich folk back then used to live. The way that Benedict decided to pursue Amelia was very well thought out and made it fun to read. It is worthy of five stars and a recommendation to all Historical Romance readers out there.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of Viscount’s Christmas Temptation by Erica Ridley.
