Summary

Celebrate the joys of Yule in Regency England with five stories by some of the most beloved Regency authors of all time. Ringing in the season with fireside warmth, holiday wishes, and Yuletide romance, these stories capture the essence of Christmas.

Sandra Heath's "Merry Magpie"—a bird as noisy as he is nosy—has a bad habit of screeching uncomely secrets, turning his masters against each other. But Christmas has a way of warming hearts, even those of the feathered persuasion...

The memory of one kiss from an elfin girl is enough to warm an Irish sailor for many chilly nights. Now home for Christmas, he'll do whatever it takes to get his love—now prim and staid—under the mistletoe, in Emma Jensen's "Following Yonder Star."

A confirmed bachelor cannot forgive himself for a long-ago sin—that is, until his niece's governess teaches him a thing or two about Christmas in Carla Kelly's "Let Nothing You Dismay."

In Edith Layton's "Best Wishes", a pair of newlyweds discover—during their first quarrel over Christmas plans—that making up is indeed the best part.

A down-at-the-heels benefactor finds that a single penny—his last—is worth more than riches when it brings him face-to-face with a breathtakingly beautiful Christmas angel, in "The Lucky Coin" by Barbara Metzger.
