Cassie O' Hara is in a rut. Keep lamenting the lost groom-to-be, as she is doing, or move on. So far, this Christmas season she's chosen to keep reminding herself of her loss by watching her almost wedding video. Right up to when her fiancé, at the altar of course, said he couldn't finish the nuptials.
Worthless, that's how she feels. Her sister and her mom aren't any help with their constant reminders of her uselessness. Cassie comes up with a great idea, egged on by her BFF, and decides to skip the Manhattan Christmas.
With a small inheritance from her grandmother, Nora, she books a trip to England for a month with hopes of a vintage and magical Christmas. Her reservation at Whimsy Cottage should do it.
Whimsy cottage is cold, dusty, and with sheets over the sparse furniture. Now what?
The nearest pub should be warm and offer food. If the dog stalking her on her trek down the street signifies the coming month in England, she might be in trouble.
A tall, gregarious, and handsome Irish man, Ryan, takes Cassie under his wing, advising her to contact Charles, Lord Bancroft, about a suitable room until the Whimsy Cottage is prepped.
Ryan is the local handyman, and Charles is the local lord. They both have Cassie's well-being in hand. She helps Ryan clean the cottage along with deep discussions over a pint or two of Guiness. Charles offers his mansion during cleanup time including deep discussions and plentiful warmth and food.
Cassie hasn't had a legitimate date in three years, and now two eligible and fine men want her attention. Who wins her heart and how does he triumph over the other? Not to mention the country she must choose!
Love is a wonderful experience surrounded by snow, lights, and decorations of an English Christmas.
Happy reading,
Dawn
