Opposites attract when a pragmatic rose breeder meets a flamboyant dancer.

Rose breeder EDMUND, Lord Thwaitepiddle, is dragged to town by his older brother, the 8th Duke of Galforth, to find a wife, or so society has been told. The reality is that the Duke has disowned his teenaged son George and needs Edmund to provide a distraction, so society won’t know about it. Edmund hears about a Book Club, and it sounds like the perfect place to hide from his overbearing brother. At the King’s Book Club, he finds a lot more than he was expecting including Gabriel who helps him confront his role in George’s estrangement.

GABRIEL aka Gabby Doll, famous female impersonator at The King’s Book Club, needs to come up with a Christmas event for the club. Last year, his first at the club was a charity boxing match and Gabby Doll was simply fabulous as a ring girl. This year, he’s uninspired, frustrated, and pondering his own worth. At first, Edmund is a handy distraction to his woes but he quickly realises that this straight forward country boy understands him more than anyone else has before. Will he lose his heart to someone who can’t possibly return his affections?

A MM Regency Christmas romance.
