A Twelfth Night Tale

Without dowries or the opportunity to meet eligible gentlemen, the five Barlow sisters stand little chance of making advantageous marriages. But when the eldest attracts the attention of a wealthy viscount, it seems as though Fate is smiling upon them. Lucy knows she owes it to her sisters to encourage Lord Bexley's attentions, since marriage to a peer will secure their futures as well as hers. The man of her dreams was Andrew Livingston, her best friend's brother. But he's always treated her like a child, and now he's betrothed to another. Perhaps the time has come to accept reality... and Lord Bexley. Andrew returned from the Peninsular War with a lame arm and emotional scars. Surprisingly, it's his sister's friend, "little Lucy," who shows him the way out of his melancholy when he notices that Lucy has grown up into a lovely young woman. But with an eligible viscount courting her, Andrew will need a little Christmas magic to win her for himself.
