The Meddling Duke
Collections
In “The Meddling Duke”, His Grace, the Duke of Danby is up to his holiday matchmaking meddling with his two unwed granddaughters!
***These two novellas are previously published Danby novellas. Winning a Lady’s Heart was previously published in “A Summons From The Castle”.
Winning a Lady’s Heart
For Lady Alexandra, being the source of a cold, calculated wager is bad enough…but when it is waged by Nathaniel Michael Winters, 5th Earl of Pembroke, the man she’s in love with, it results in a broken heart, the scandal of the season, and a summons from her grandfather–the Duke of Danby.
To escape Society’s gossip, she hurries to her meeting with the duke, determined to put memories of the earl far behind. Except the duke has other plans for Alexandra…plans which include the 5th Earl of Pembroke!
A Season of Hope
Five years ago when her love, Marcus Wheatley, failed to return from fighting Napoleon’s forces, Lady Olivia Foster buried her heart. Unable to betray Marcus’s memory, Olivia has gone out of her way to run off prospective suitors. At three and twenty she considers herself firmly on the shelf. Her father, however, disagrees and accepts an offer for Olivia’s hand in marriage. Yet it’s Christmas, when anything can happen…
Olivia receives a well-timed summons from her grandfather, the Duke of Danby, and eagerly embraces the reprieve from her betrothal.
Only, when Olivia arrives at Danby Castle, she realizes the Christmas season is a time of hope, second chances, and even miracles.

Love this set!
You won't regret buying this collection. It's a fast read but are fully fleshed out stories. While it's staged for Christmas, you don't have to wait for the holiday season to start this warm and fuzzy read!

Two Enchanting 5 Star Christmas Romantic tales that will be read again and again!
Christi Caldwell’s writing is impeccable, she takes the reader on an enchanting ride back in time to the age of Lord’s and Lady’s and of course one rascally Duke...Caldwell’s characterization and plot development are so rich and one can’t help but fall in love with the young lovers in both stories. These stories are sweet, deeply romantic and so very enchanting. You will want to be sure to add this to your Christmas list this season and read these again and again each Christmastide!

A great read!
I love Regency romance. This one takes place with very few characters but the major ones are all that are needed. There are very few settings but the spirit of Christmas prevails in spite of limited backdrops. The focus is on the emotions of the three main characters. Surprisingly enough I enjoyed looking into the heart of Danby as much as the lovers themselves. Finding myself wondering about his younger years. Maybe that's a subject the author will cover in the future.
