The Beauty and the Beastly Duke Elizabeth Downton

It is Christmas in Doncaster, England, and Bridget Beaumont is in her usual high spirits. She usually busies herself in caring for those in need, but on one stormy night, she happens upon a stranger that makes this Christmas time something special. Anthony Comerford, the Duke of Derbyshire, is a handsome but cynical man, one who stills feels the pain of having lost someone he thought loved him by the hands of his recently deceased brother, whom he believes he can never forgive. Seeing the pain and struggle in Anthony, Bridget takes it upon herself to lift the Duke from the dark place she found him in, just in time for Christmas. But in doing so, she finds that she too has her own challenges to face. Battling between two contrasting views of life, the two find that they have much in common with each other, and in doing so, they discover a connection that leads them to what they have been both yearning for; true love. A special Christmas tale of unrequited love, romantic twist and compelling adventure from the pen of Elizabeth Downton...
