Her Christmas White Knight by Elizabeth Keysian

Can Festive goodwill open a sinner’s heart?

England, Yuletide 1585
The dice have been loaded against Mistress Julia Wentworth. Little wonder she no longer trusts a soul—except for the street urchin she rescued. Having fallen in love with—and been abandoned by—a murderous traitor, Julia’s been turned out by her family and left to scrape what living she can on the brutal London streets. When a goose strays into her yard, it looks as if she’ll at least have something to feast on at Christmas.
Exploding back into her life in pursuit of his goose is Myall Farrar, a scarred clerk estranged from his miserly father. Myall can’t afford to lose the bird for which he’s scrimped and saved, because his sister’s future depends upon putting on a good show at Christmas.
Are Myall and Julia too greatly changed to rekindle the spark between them? Is there any hope of goodwill within their families? And—perhaps more importantly—will the goose prove itself worth saving from the butcher’s knife?
