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.

The premise is based on an autocratic and seemingly omniscient duke who summons his numerous grandchildren to his castle at Christmastide so he can play matchmaker. These two short stories are about Lady Alexandra and Lady Olivia who are sisters.Winning a Lady's Heart - 4 starsLady Alexandra is heartbroken when she discovers Lord Pembroke has wagered against them getting married. She creates an embarrassing scandal and is relieved to be summoned to her grandfather's castle in Yorkshire to escape the London gossip. Very likable characters and I could feel their hearts breaking over their split. The story lost momentum for me during their reconciliation - it felt flat and rushed. They have a brief conversation and all is forgiven. I was just expecting something different, especially after all the emotional lead up to this point. But it's still a good story, it's well written and I was happy to root for these lovely characters getting their HEA.A Season of Hope - 5 starsCaldwell always does an excellent job of pulling me into her stories and turning on the emotions to make my eyes well up with tears. This story includes an injured soldier with a beauty and the beast / second chance theme, but I never tire of this storyline and it's particularly well written. Lady Olivia has waited five years for the man she loves to return from war, but her father is insisting it's time she move on and marry his 60 year old friend. She's relieved to receive a summons to her grandfather's castle to spend Christmastide with him. Will the Duke of Danby play matchmaker again? There was nothing I disliked about this story and thoroughly enjoyed it.** Sweet and clean romances.

By Teatime and Books Reviews Book 1 Winning a Lady’s Heart:We are first met by Alexandra and Nathan in the parlor of Alexandra’s home. Alexandra is deeply in love with Nathan but alas he no longer returns those feelings. He leaves her, breaking her heart and utterly devastating her. She soon learns of a wager he’s made at Whites that tarnishes her reputation but what tarnishes it further is when she confronts him some weeks later at a high society ball. She’s wrought with hurt and is dragged out by her shocked, yet comforting mother.The Christmas season is near but Alexandra’s heart feels as cold as the fallen snow and colder still when she is summoned to her grandfathers, the Duke of Danby’s castle for Christmas. After her family’s long travels, Alexandra wants nothing more than to disappear under the covers of her warm bed when she is called to see the duke immediately. Fearing his rage and disappointment about her recent scandal, she shakenly but courageously goes to his office. However, to her surprise he talks of love and her true feelings for Nathan are expressed. Her grandfather calls in another of his guests and Alexandra turns to see before her, Nathan and her heart stops. Why did the Duke of Danby invite Nathan and his granddaughter? Will Nathan and Alexandra rekindle their love? Or will their love fall like the Christmas snow?Book 2 A Season of Hope:We meet Olivia curled up in the window seat of her room watching the falling snow. She’s reflecting on her age of three and twenty and that another season has passed and to her father’s disappointment, she’s not married. Her mother comes to her room and she and Olivia discuss her father’s desire for her to wed. Olivia does not want to wed for her heart belongs to another, Marcus Wheatley who went off to war five years before and has been presumed dead. She and Marcus loved each other very deeply and she made a promise to him and has pushed off all other suitors that is until now. Her father has offered her hand to a Lord Wellesley. However, to Olivia’s surprise and relief, she’s been summoned by her grandfather, the Duke of Danby’s castle for Christmastide. She and only she has been summoned.The Duke of Danby is in his office and is talking with his employee, a dark haired man with a patch over his eye and scars marking his face. He is informed by the duke that they are expecting a very special guest, his granddaughter, Olivia. A carriage draws up and Olivia enters the castle only to be whisked immediately to her grandfather’s office. There she not only meets the duke but also hiding in the shadows is none other than her long lost love, Marcus Wheatley. What game is the duke playing now? Will Olivia and Marcus rekindle their love like the fire in the great hall or will Olivia be forced to marry Lord Wellesley and live with only her memories?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. What more romantic than at the most magical time of the year, Christmas, where love reawakens and sparkles just as the candles upon the yew tree. 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!
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Love, LOVE, LOVE!!! By Amazon Customer The characters in these two darling tales will first show you heart break, then the triumph of love, all the while celebrating the season.All Christi Caldwell stories have similarities. The differences are what make the stories, and the characters make the differences. These characters grow fast, fill out fully, and finally, find their futures in the glorious background of the Christmas season in Regency England.
