Description
A young widow with two children, Judith is determined to rebuild her life with quiet dignity—until a wealthy, titled match becomes the season’s expectation and a promise she never asked for. When her jilted ex returns with an elaborate scheme designed to lure her into love and then shatter her again, Judith must navigate the dangerous line between second chances and carefully staged heartbreak. In this emotionally rich holiday romance, Mary Balogh blends festive atmosphere with sharp psychological tension, exploring themes of trust, resilience, and the difference between being “chosen” and truly being loved. With Balogh’s signature Regency-era depth and character-driven storytelling, the story turns the season’s promise of joy into a test of courage—one that may change what Judith believes love can be.
