A winter storm stirs passions long denied in this sensual Yuletide romance, a short novel featuring the characters who once led Library Journal to declare, “Ruby and Derek’s chemistry is just as explosive during their unbridled trysts as with their slow, ardent lovemaking.”

Madame Rouge—Ruby to her intimates—always makes the secret
desires of her clients a priority. Now the time has come to
fulfill her own fantasy, one so private it brings a rare
blush to her cheeks. When Captain Derek Price returns from
his service to the sea, Ruby will sell London’s elite house
of pleasure, leaving behind her very home to marry the
sailor who has mastered every surging crest of her body.

Pity, then, the ill-timed arrival of Ruby’s estranged
half-sister, Jasmine, desperate for a warm bed and a
sympathetic ear. Ruby is loath to marry the poor girl off to
a stranger or, even worse, entrust her to the ignoble lord
who has bid on the brothel. She has no other choice than to
shelter Jasmine herself. As much as Ruby’s heart races at
the thought of a future with Derek, she now faces the
possibility that, once again, her happy ending has been
delayed—unless a Christmas miracle makes all their dreams
come true.
