Their Viscountess's Christmas Wish

Tenet No. 5: When trust is absolute and love profound, a viscountess is free to request her most wanton desires.
~ Guidance in Wisdom, Devotion, and Desire: The Tenets of the Ladies of The Vale

Christmas wishes take on scandalous new meaning in this warm, wicked return to some of The Vale's most beloved characters in this sweet and spicy holiday why-choose romance with tenderness, desire unleashed, and a family fighting to hold fast to one another.

Two years after declaring their love, Viscount Thomas Neeley, his viscountess Eleanor, and their best friend-turned-lover Derick Hughes have built a life none of them ever expected: a thriving estate, a tender marriage, and the child who binds them all. But this Christmas at Eleanor's family estate, three hearts carry three private wishes, and none anticipate the danger lurking among the holly and mistletoe.

Eleanor loves both her men fiercely, but ten months after giving birth, Thomas and Derick still treat her as breakable. Armed with a newly discovered book of wisdom from the Ladies of The Vale, she intends to claim a scandalous new intimacy with her men. First, she must remind them that she's stronger than they realize.

Thomas wishes for something far more difficult: the freedom to love Derick openly, at least among family. Instead, he must pretend Derick is nothing more than a cherished friend rather than the man who shares his bed, his secrets, and his heart.

Derick, now a renowned and wealthy horse breeder, arrives at the house party as a valued guest in his own right. But when a scheming young lady sets her sights on trapping him into marriage, he faces a threat that could tear him from the only family he's ever truly had.

It will take more than desire to safeguard their future. Fortunately, several of the Viscounts of The Vale are in attendance.

This Christmas might just hold three miracles.
