Really disliked the concept of "let's fall in love because the other person is so beautiful / handsome". Larissa was so disgusting naive, like a little girl wanting a man to take care of her, losing her virginity cause it is something she never felt before. Vincent at least had more of a reason for his behavior. Larissa's father was the worst; forgive him cause he has made you sad. The only nice thing was decorating the Christmas tree and saying it is the family sharing more than anything else. Larissa Ascot's father has gone to the Colonies on business and is long over due to return home. Larissa is left to deal with rumors of her family's bankruptcy, creditors, and the threat of eviction and it's Christmas time. A charming would-be "benefactor,"Vincent Everett, the Baron of Windsmoor, has offered to shelter Larissa and her young brother. But more than Yuletide spirit seems to have inspired the baron's generostity..From the moment he first set eyes on Larissa, the highborn rogue was bewitched. And now that she has taken up residence in his home, he aches with wanting her-a most unfortunate state of affairs, since the proud beauty obviously despises him, and since Vincent has sworn to seek a righteous vengeance on the Ascot family. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

For the first time in her sheltered life, Larissa Ascot's wishes for a merry Christmas seem to be in peril. Her father is off to the Colonies on business, but is far overdue to be home. Thus Larissa is left to handle the rumors of her family's bankruptcy, panicked creditors pounding on her door, and eviction. On top of all that, she must now contend with her enigmatic would-be "benefactor," Vincent Everett, the Baron of Windsmoor. The charming and handsome rogue has offered to shelter Larissa, her little brother, and their few remaining servants in his own home, and Larissa has no choice but to accept his proposal--unless she and her younger brother Thomas wish to wake up chin-deep in snow on Christmas morning.The baron would be the first to admit that it is more than the Yuletide spirit of good will that has inspired his generosity. From the moment he first set eyes on the enchanting Miss Ascot, he was bewitched. And now that she has taken up residence in his home as well as in his heart, he aches with wanting her--a most unfortunate state of Airs, since the proud beauty obviously despises him...and since Vincent had previously sworn to seek a righteous vengeance on Larissa's family.But Christmas is a time of miracles, after all, when love, at the seasonal peak of its power, can triumph over all adversity. The more the lovely lady resists Vincent's considerable attractions, the hotter her desire for him grows. And in these magical days, something truly wondrous could occur--as the spirit of forgiveness reaches down to touch two rival souls...and shower Vincent and Larissa with precious gifts of tenderness and ecstasy unbound.
