About this ebook
Christmas Eve, 1814 . . .
When heavy snow forces Russian Princess Tatiana Denisova to abandon her journey to London, the only establishment with room to spare is the scandalously improper Klaus Haus, Canterbury's most infamous brothel. What would her brother—not to mention his irritatingly attractive best friend, Aleksandr Orlov—say?
Tatiana hasn't seen either man since they returned from the war, so when Aleks arrives to escort her home, she doesn't know whether to be thrilled, or mortified. She might have loved him secretly for years, but it would take a Christmas miracle for him to fall in love with her. . .

And his best friend, the irritatingly handsome Aleksandr Orlov, would no doubt make one of his dry, scathing comments and tease her about it endlessly.
She wasn’t thinking of him.
Tatiana wasn’t the only traveler who’d been forced to take refuge in here. Frau Klaus’s front parlor was crammed with unexpected guests, from every level of the social strata, all making the best of the situation. The weather was a great leveler; everyone was in equal need of warmth and cheer and comfort. An air of festive conviviality had settled on the disparate group, their closeness fostered by the shared adventure.
